Branding Review from Daniel Shim
I knew something had to be done with my brand and online presence, but I didn't know where to focus. Thebestreputation put all the pieces together. They took the time to understand who I wanted my target audience to be. Together, we built a new brand identity and website, creating a strong online presence. I found their approach of testing different brand ideas to find the most effective one to be incredibly helpful. They won an award for design excellence in the branding work they have done for us-completely unanticipated and an added bonus for all.

This agency was only used for a short period. A pleasant and responsive team but not quite as strong on strategy, C-Suite engagement/interviewing or ensuring our organisation provided enough information to achieve the best results.

I had the pleasure of partnering with Media FRENZY to help with brand repositioning and strategic work, and the experience was phenomenal. They were truly amazing partners—strategic, creative, and always willing to push us when needed. Their in-depth process ensured every detail was addressed, and they remained open to discussions, feedback, and exploring new concepts with us.
Media FRENZY consistently brought fresh ideas to the table, showcasing their ability to think outside the box while keeping our goals at the forefront. Their collaborative approach and dedication made them excellent partners throughout the journey. Sarah, Dave and team were professional, collaborative and quite frankly, a FUN team to partner with. If you're looking for a marketing agency that combines strategy with creativity and genuinely listens to your needs, I absolutely recommend Media FRENZY.

As people who have worked full-time in the culinary media industry since 2018, we have a list of companies who are fun to work with and a list of the ones who are NOT so fun to work with. The team at Praxis PR definitely falls under our “FUN” category of partnerships, as we recently partnered on a campaign that was enjoyable from start to finish. The team understood the importance of creating content true to our unique tone and supported us in delivering one of the best pieces of work we have submitted to date. We look forward to partnering with the team at Praxis PR again soon!

Praxis... What can I say about this company? Well, as an outside contractor (photographer) who has had the pleasure of working with them on various projects and activations for many years I can tell you that they're one of my favorite clients and working with them has allowed me to provide photos for some really top shelf clients.
First off, they all have SUCH a great attitude and personality, from the account managers to the accounting team, and right up to the bosses, and I'm always looking forward working with the team because of this. The events/activations they put together are like no other, the attention to detail, the venue selection, the food that goes with their pairing menus, everything is always so very well thought out, designed with a keen eye for detail, and perfectly executed. Lastly, as a contractor, never had issues with payments, always on time, and the communication is bar none.
I give them a 5/5, if I could give them a 10/5 I would, and if I were on the other side of the fence looking for the best PR firm for my brand, I'd be knocking on the Praxis PR door.

Sharing our students' incredible stories is crucial to connecting with more people with mobility challenges who could benefit from our TangoStride Program. The team at RH Strategic took an interest in our mission and generously offered to spread the word pro bono. They pitched our story to just the right people, and landed us two local media stories with major news channels Q13 Fox and KING 5! Not only were they instrumental in our outreach to the Greater Seattle community, but they were extremely knowledgeable about the media process and their guidance was invaluable. Thank you, RH Strategic for helping us help people "Dance to Walk" with TangoStride!

Our non-profit worked with True Fit Marketing worked with True Fit Marketing to update and rebrand one of our event websites. Their team was attentive, creative, and really went the extra mile to present and implement ideas we hadn't even considered. We are grateful to the True Fit Marketing team, their vision, and execution; and we look forward to working with them as we continue to grow this event to other locations.

I've been working with True Fit Marketing for a few years and couldn't be happier. Recently, they suggested a fresh website update might be a good idea. We got to creating the new website and even a NEW logo color. Their team is so talented at what they do, so we just trusted them throughout the process. We couldn't be happier with the final product. Highly recommend!!!

My business is called Oasis Senior Advisors in the Pittsburgh area and I really like working with Arlea and the team at True Fit. They are very responsive with emails and are constantly looking to get more visibility with my Facebook page. They are very good with helping me with Facebook posts and are always looking for ways to post videos of me out and about in the community. We have monthly or every other month meetings to review statistics of google searches and how we've performed online as well as talk about what's coming in the future that they can help with. A very strong group and look forward to continuing to work with them.

I feel like they are the best "hub" to go to when it comes to connecting to people, non-profits, for-profits, public officials, all communities, I really can just sit here and list things off my head for a long time. It really is amazing how rooted they are in the city of Houston and beyond. Strongly recommend for you or your organization to reach out to Outreach Strategists. It still amazes me how creative they can be when it comes to almost anything. I know that sounds so broad, but that is how knowledgeable the people are here. If you need to connect to people or the public, they will get you connected.

Reputation Management
Data sourced from the agency's DesignRush profile, its website, and other relevant accounts
Media relations and earned coverage: Through strong media relations, PR agencies pitch stories, coordinate interviews, and place clients in relevant publications. Recent industry data shows that 63% of consumers trust news media information over advertising, reinforcing the value of PR-led media coverage.
Strategic communication and PR strategy: Developing a tailored PR strategy aligned with business goals to reach target audiences effectively. According to PR Week’s State of PR report, 75% of communicators say PR must directly align with business results.
Reputation and crisis management: A public relations firm prepares organizations for potential risks and leads response efforts during crises. According to industry research, businesses with a proactive crisis plan recover up to 50% faster than those without one.
Corporate communications and public affairs: Many agencies handle internal and external corporate communications, ensuring consistent messaging across employees, investors, and the public. They may also support public affairs, helping organizations navigate regulatory environments and communicate with government stakeholders.
Content and digital marketing integration: Modern PR services often overlap with digital marketing, content marketing, and influencer marketing. PR firms create press releases, thought leadership articles, and multimedia content that amplify visibility across digital channels. Digital and online media now account for 57.84% of PR spending, showing how communication strategies have shifted toward digital-first engagement.
Brand positioning and thought leadership: PR agencies help companies establish authority through thought leadership, strategic storytelling, and consistent messaging. This is especially important for emerging brands seeking to build brand recognition in competitive markets.
Client advisory and PR counseling: Providing ongoing PR counseling to guide leadership decisions. Agencies advise each client on communication strategy, market positioning, and stakeholder engagement.
How much do PR services typically cost?
The price of PR services varies widely depending on the scope, industry, and level of expertise required. Most entry-level and mid-sized businesses should expect to pay $5,000-$15,000 per month for meaningful results from a professional PR firm.
For ongoing support, agencies typically charge a monthly retainer.
Entry-level or boutique PR firm: $3,000-$5,000 per month
Mid-sized agencies: $8,000-$15,000 per month
Enterprise or global public relations companies: $15,000-$40,000+ per month
A 2025 pricing analysis shows that most retainers fall between $5,000 and $20,000 per month, with larger national or global campaigns exceeding that range.
Agencies charge hourly for advisory, PR counseling, and similar services with rates ranging from $100 to $300 per hour.
How do these firms handle crisis management situations?
They handle crisis management by preparing in advance, responding quickly, and guiding the recovery after the immediate issue is contained.
First, a PR firm assesses risk and builds a response plan before a crisis happens. That matters because 89% of business leaders say resilience is a strategic priority, which shows how seriously companies now treat crisis readiness, according to Deloitte.
When a crisis breaks, firms move fast to control the narrative by drafting a holding statement, advising executives, coordinating legal and leadership input, and managing media questions. The goal is to respond within the first day, because early action often shapes how the issue is perceived.
Top agencies also monitor digital channels in real time. At the start of 2024, there were 5.04 billion social media user accounts worldwide, and the global total grew by 266 million in 2023, which means crises can spread extremely fast across platforms.
After the immediate response, PR teams focus on trust recovery, handling follow-up messaging, stakeholder communication, and reputation rebuilding.
What timelines should I expect before seeing measurable results from PR efforts?
PR results typically take time to build, with most businesses seeing measurable impact within 3 to 6 months, and stronger, sustained results over 6 to 12 months.
Early outputs, such as media placements and initial media relations traction, can appear within the first 4 to 8 weeks. However, meaningful outcomes, such as improved brand recognition, a stronger reputation, and consistent coverage, require ongoing effort and a well-executed strategy.
According to the 2024 Global Comms Report by Cision, 68% of PR professionals say demonstrating long-term impact remains a top priority, reinforcing that PR is a cumulative investment rather than a short-term tactic.
In practice, organizations that commit to at least 6 months of consistent PR activity are far more likely to see measurable business value.
