We offer a full range of public relations, communications, and marketing services. Our approach combines fresh ideas with an exceptional understanding of the local media landscape, current trends, research, and analysis, proven techniques and relationships to effectively develop and implement integrated public relations and communications strategies within your organization, campaigns, or for your individual reputation.
We are recognised for our specialist expertise in issues and crisis management. Companies and individuals come to us when they are confronting major issues that threaten their corporate or personal reputation. The work we do often goes unheard, which is our objective – to keep the client out of the media, minimise damage and maintain their positive reputation. We work with clients to develop comprehensive programs to manage immediate crises and longer term issues.
We have worked with a number of organizations and individuals, managing guest lists, media protocols, accreditation systems, on-site media interviews and briefings, and media center operations.
We have extensive event management experience in everything from campaign launches, bespoke experiences, through to large civic events. Applying meticulous planning, lateral thinking and a can-do attitude, we understand what it takes to create an exceptional event experience, and have the capacity to work anywhere in New Zealand.
We offer exclusive development and management for individuals and start-up companies. We help people and companies understand themselves, their market and most importantly, champoioning their goals.
