Our Services

Public relations in the business-to-business automotive and mobility sector is about building the brand, enhancing marketplace awareness, and helping your organization to communicate and connect with customers and prospects … all to strengthen your company’s bottom line.

Using our deep expertise, longtime media relationships and extensive industry knowledge – gained over the 30+ years we’ve focused on the B2B automotive supplier sector – we can support your key business objectives with a program that integrates PR and marketing communications for unmatched effectiveness.

PR Strategy and Tactics

Your company’s PR program success depends upon the skillful marriage of two key factors: 1) a smart, targeted, realistic, and sustainable strategy; and 2) flawless tactical execution.

We can help you with both.

Earned Media

Nothing imparts credibility and reach to your key messages than earning positive media coverage in trusted media outlets through media relations and publicity.

We’ve been focused on this skillset for more than 30 years, so we can help you with a full portfolio of proven B2B tools and techniques, including: news releases, media advisories, media interviews, news conferences, media training, fact sheets, backgrounders, media briefings, press kits, media tours, press ride and drives/demonstrations, editorial roundtables, and more.

Executive Visibility & Thought Leadership

Thought leadership can help your mobility company to earn recognition as an expert and a preferred partner. We help you hone your thought leadership message and help position your executives as industry leaders – who share big-picture viewpoints and insights through media interviews, speaking engagements, social media, blogs, and industry/community involvement.

And for those automotive and mobility suppliers wanting more than those traditional PR methods, we also offer other ingredients for a winning integrated PR program.
