THREAT NEUTRALIZATION
We were OP&A prior to Scandal ever airing.
If you're in business for more than 10 seconds, you NEED to be armed with Threat Assessment & Crisis Management techniques. Knowing when to fight, when to let things pass, how to get "your side" out, and who to contact when things go south are the keys to taking down the entities trying to take you out.
PUBLIC RELATIONS
Brand development, image management, digital content curation, media engagement, web presence, speaking opportunities, business leads, and doing business and socializing with The Select require precise execution. You do not get a second chance to make the first impression. We specialize in getting you in front of the right people, the right way, the FIRST time.
TRIBAL AFFINITY
You don't want to engage community, or manage the community, or be involved in the community. You want the community that buys your products, uses your services, works in your offices and stores to be your TRIBE, your family, your Ace and Wingman. For that to happen, they must feel a certain affinity - or affection - for you. We can get you "in there".
​
MEDIA TRAINING
No one is going to sell your business like you. So you need to speak about it and sell it like you're a million dollar closer - whether you like sales or not. You also need to talk with the press in a way that translates knowledge without elitism, confidence without arrogance, and warmth without sexual overtone. This is what we do for clients - let us help you.
