      Evan Patterson's Review Sourced from Google

      I reached out to get a quote on services from them on behalf of a client who sent me to them. The client I represented was no longer in a position to move forward upon receiving the quote. Since then, in 3 years, I reached out 4 times to receive additional quotes for other clients who sent me to find PR services. All 4 times I was ghosted. I was informed it was because I’m a “waste of time” - make that make sense. One client of mine says no to your services, and all of a sudden I am a waste of time and you don’t want what was easily going to be $100,000 in MRR?

    • Anonymous Owner at Environ Skin Care

      Public Relations Review from Anonymous

      As a national wholesale distributor for a pharmaceutical skin care line, we focus largely on B2B lead nurturing and must rely primarily on the 5WPR team to support our consumer outreach.  We have been clients of 5WPR for just over a year and the team has secured nearly 3 billion impressions.  The publications include national books such as Vogue, NewBeauty, Elle, StyleCaster, Well + Good, Who What Wear, Harper's Bazaar, InStyle, and many more. One of our main goals was also to secure coverage in regional publications and media to help support our medspa clients.  5WPR aligned with our strategy and has secured a multitude of smaller market publications and broadcast segments which has helped increase exposure for our amazing medspa practices and lifted product and treatment sales. 5WPR is extremely proactive in seeking out influencers that are a fit for our skin care brand and technology.  When Hailey Bieber touted one of our products in a social post, 5WPR was swift at media hijacking, leveraging on the publicity and securing millions more impressions. The 5WPR team also keeps our brand in the hands of many editors with industry-relevant and thought-provoking story coverage.  Our award submissions are carefully considered and submitted on our behalf. We very much appreciate the training and education that the 5WPR team has committed to as our brand has a lot of science and technology.  The team has adopted our philosophy on education and continues to learn and harness ingredient and skin science to present our brand to the media. We feel that the 5WPR team is an extension of our staff family.  We feel supported and very comfortable reaching out with our needs anytime.  5WPR listens to our ideas and collaborates to institute strategies that hit measurable goals.

      SEO Review from Linda Ciavarelli

      PRETO BUSINESS is working on growing our domain ranking and getting us to the first page via blogs and web page optimization. They're also cleaning things up and doing a lot of technical work on the backend. We've given them our existing keyword research and analytics, but they've devised their own system. We've added to it as we go.PRETO BUSINESS is also on top of all our social media in terms of posting content. They create most of the content, but we generate some things for them to post, mainly without a specific strategy, and we handle the generated leads. They're constantly optimizing our website and adding new pages at our request. They also do UX/UI work, blog posts, and page optimization.

      Video Marketing Review from Lauren Monahan

      PRETO BUSINESS created an educational video for our partner retailers. We were about to launch a huge project, and PRETO BUSINESS helped us create this video to educate the retailers on how the program worked step by step. The video included a script and was a huge project.We gave PRETO BUSINESS guidance on what to include in the video. The industry is very restrictive, so we had to be cautious about what we communicated. For example, each time we showed how a product was selling, we had to ask the retailer for the ID to check if the person was an adult and not a teenager.We fully gave PRETO BUSINESS independence regarding how the video should look. They created some mood boards, which they presented. Together, we had the opportunity to choose the characters used in the video and create the script. PRETO BUSINESS provided their own equipment and studio for the production. They also did the video editing and audio mixing, providing several updates.

      Content Marketing Review from Mckenzie Ycmat

      I've worked with Siege since 2016, and there's a reason I've brought them with me to nearly every company I've joined since. I've partnered with a lot of agencies over the years, but Siege consistently stands out because they don't just execute SEO tactics, they become an extension of your team. They take the time to understand your business, collaborate across marketing, and build content strategies that actually drive measurable results. One of the things I appreciate most is how proactive they are. They bring ideas to the table, back recommendations with data, and genuinely care about long-term growth rather than chasing quick wins. The impact they've had on my career has been significant. At multiple companies, their work has helped us grow organic traffic, strengthen our content strategy, and prove the value of marketing initiatives. They're one of the few partners I've trusted enough to advocate for repeatedly, including making sure I could continue working with them after changing jobs. The fact that I've spent nearly a decade recommending Siege internally says everything. They're one of those rare agencies that consistently exceed expectations, and I'd recommend them without hesitation to any marketing team looking for a true strategic partner.

How do top PR firms in the USA secure media coverage and build long-term momentum?

American PR firms secure media coverage and sustain momentum through a structured, repeatable process that combines strategy, execution, and relationship management. 

  • Narrative development: Defining a clear, newsworthy story that aligns brand goals with what journalists write about, ensuring relevance rather than promotional messaging. 
  • Proof-point assembly: Gathering customer outcomes, data, executive credibility, and third-party validation to support claims. 
  • Media mapping: Identifying journalists and media outlets based on beat, audience fit, and past coverage. 
  • Angle creation: Adapting the core narrative into timely, outlet-specific angles tied to trends, news hooks, or audience pain points. 
  • Pitching cadence: Sending pitches in controlled waves to avoid inbox fatigue while maintaining steady visibility across priority publications. 
  • Follow-ups and refinement: Using thoughtful follow-ups to clarify relevance or provide a new context rather than repeat the same message. 
  • Reactive opportunities: Monitoring breaking news and journalist requests to insert expert commentary quickly, compounding coverage between major campaigns. 
  • Relationship building and iteration: Earning trust through reliability and relevance—relationships can open doors, but newsworthiness still drives results.

What’s the difference between a B2B public relations agency and a B2C PR firm?

B2B (business-to-business) and B2C (business-to-consumer) PR firms differ based on audience, buying cycle, and media focus. 

B2B PR agency 

B2B PR targets niche decision makers and long buying cycles, with coverage focused on industry and trade publications. Messaging relies on proof points like ROI, case studies, and expertise, with indirect conversion goals tied to pipeline influence and a steady, lower volume cadence. 

B2C PR firm 

Consumer PR targets broad audiences and shorter buying cycles, emphasizing mainstream media, lifestyle outlets, and creators. Storytelling is emotion-led and trend-driven, with clearer near-term conversion expectations such as traffic or sales and a faster, campaign-based cadence. 

When should I hire a PR company instead of handling PR in-house?

Brands should decide between an agency and in-house PR based on scale, speed, and risk tolerance. 

Hire a PR company if: 

  • You need rapid scale or intensive campaign support that exceeds internal bandwidth. 
  • You want immediate access to established media relationships across top-tier and niche outlets. 
  • You are planning a high-stakes launch, funding round, rebrand, or market expansion. 
  • You need crisis readiness or a 24/7 response capability that in-house teams cannot sustain. 
  • You operate in a complex or regulated industry that requires specialized PR expertise. 
  • You want an external perspective to sharpen positioning and messaging. 

Keep it in-house if: 

  • PR needs are steady, predictable, and limited in scope. 
  • Your team already has strong media relationships in your core category. 
  • Campaign intensity is low and tied mainly to internal updates or announcements. 
  • Budget constraints favor salaried roles over agency retainers. 
  • You prioritize deep institutional knowledge over broad external reach.
