Nonprofit Review from Paige Lewis Sandford
The Miller group is a committed, savvy and creative partner who can look at a situation and break it down into a realistic strategy.
We hired The Miller Group to help us get clearer on our strategy for our non profit's membership program. We had premium and free levels, and we needed help understanding what drove interest in joining and staying as a premium member. In summary, we needed to better understand what our target audience understood about and wanted from each of the membership levels. Renee and her team helped us do quantitative and qualitative research and to develop strategies to acquire new premium members. They successfully delivered hard data analyses and suggestions to help us implement different strategies including recommending a new positioning for us. The team helped us understand how to position free versus premium memberships and identify the key drivers for the different audience groups.
The Miller Group understood our needs and excelled in their creative approach to devising solutions. Overall, they were accessible, collaborative, well-organized and a strategic partner.

I spent a long time searching for a company to design labels for my products. By chance, I came across the Soul & Mind agency. After speaking with Mariusz, I was certain I wanted to establish a long-term partnership with them in designing labels for my unique products, which are being launched under the BluePlan brand.
I can confidently say that this is a top-notch collaboration. The agency is distinguished by its very personal approach to the client, the above-average commitment of all its employees, punctuality, flexibility, listening, and excellent diagnosis of their clients' needs.
I HIGHLY ENCOURAGE anyone who is hesitant about choosing an agency to consider working with Soul & Mind. I am delighted.

I had the opportunity to work with Soul & Mind during diagnostic and strategic workshops as part of our organization's rebranding project.
I can confidently say that it was a top-notch collaboration. The agency stands out for its highly personalized approach to clients – from the very first meetings, we felt they understood the specifics of our organization and the challenges associated with brand transformation.
I particularly appreciate their flexibility and responsiveness – all our requests were handled efficiently and sensitively, and the prepared report provides a solid foundation for further project work. The recommendations and proposed solutions we received were relevant and practical, yet based on thorough analysis.
Soul & Mind is a partner who can combine a strategic perspective with realistic, implementable guidelines. I recommend them to any company looking for a branding agency that works outside the box and is attentive to client needs and organizational culture.

I’ve had the pleasure of working with
No Boundaries Marketing for several years and believe good work should be recognized 😀
If you are looking for a marketing group that provides excellent SEO I would like to pass on my personal recommendations.
I have found Chris “The Architect”to be a good listener that has always been pleasant to work with and works hard to dig deep to understand the needs of your business. As a small business owner, this is important!
Along these lines, he has also been very personable and easy to work with. I can say the same for his team as they have been driven to accomplish goals and objectives set by their leader.
Having an SEO company in your business tool box is an excellent move! It doesn’t have to be painful. They are pleasant organization, and I hope you will find them as gratifying as I did.
Best wishes and best of success!

Breakthrough Real Estate & Property Management's Review Sourced from Google
Well Chris might be a nice guy, the rest of his staff is a revolving door, they take days to get back to you pertaining to updates, if they get back to you at all. When I canceled their services because they didn't get back to me, and they didn't perform the updates that they told me they would do, they then shut off my Google ad without ever telling me. The Google ad that I pay the budget for, and after paying a monthly fee for their services for those ads. The fact they didn't even tell me, cost our business potentially thousands of dollars. As much as his attitude might be great, they burned my company, and we may never come back. Be very careful.

Public Relations
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.
