Public Relations

Whether you need an alternative to a traditional marketing campaign or an extension of one, our approach always extends well beyond traditional public relations. We are counselors and communicators. Marketers and mediators. Social event planners and social media guides.

We do more than just get our clients ink. We create buzz - on the streets and in the stores, through online communities and throughout global industries. Our clients are successful because we're able to shape the relationships they have with their many publics by creating messages that truly resonate with those audiences. And we do so by knowing how, when, and where to deliver those messages to get the right response.

What can we say, we wear a lot of hats!

Brunner PR professionals are experts in:

  • Media Relations - We help our clients create news and manage the media at the national, regional, and local levels with both consumer and trade press.
  • Word-of-Mouth PR - We give people a reason to talk about your brand and make it easy for that conversation to take place both online and offline.
  • Social Media Management - We monitor and evaluate online conversations and advise our clients on the best way to participate or respond.
  • Corporate Communications - We turn your employees into ambassadors for your brand through effective internal communications, programs and events.
  • Crisis Planning and Media Training - The best way to manage a crisis is to avoid it. We use comprehensive pre-planning strategies and media training to prepare clients for every possible scenario. But we are ready to spring into action should a crisis occur.
  • Special Events - We find, or create, just the right venue, event, or trade show to launch or promote your products and services.
  • Guerilla Marketing - We create buzz about your brand through unexpected, attention-getting visual spectacles and energetic street teams.
  • Cause Branding - We help our clients find or develop meaningful causes to support and enhance the image of their brands.
  • Fundraising PR - We can revamp your image and raise awareness for your cause in preparation for a major fundraising campaign.
