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.

Branding Review from Adam Bleibtreu
We specialize in matching qualified contractors with clients in need of freelance, part-time, or full-time help. Our logo had been in place for 20 years and we needed help rebranding nearly every element of the company.
There are fewer things more challenging than rebranding an entire firm, but La Visual provided a great brand illumination study, and the care they gave to the design was outstanding. La Visual is a partner that thinks about why you’re rebranding and who you're doing it for.

Kristy Colakidis's Review Sourced from Google
I honestly don’t have enough words to express the gratitude I have for the entire team at VioPixel. From the very beginning, they’ve been nothing short of exceptional — incredibly professional, creative, and genuinely passionate about what they do.
Their friendly, down-to-earth approach made the whole experience not only enjoyable but deeply collaborative. What stood out most is how invested they were in understanding me, my brand, what it stands for, and how it fits into today’s market. They didn’t just “do a job” — they brought my vision to life in a way that felt aligned, modern, and deeply connected to the heart of my business.
In the short time I’ve known them, they’ve already helped move my business forward in ways I couldn’t have imagined. Their ideas are brilliant, their execution is flawless, and their ability to transform dreams into reality is something truly special.
They’ve truly become an integral part of my brand’s journey — not just as creative partners, but as a dream team deeply aligned with my purpose, vision, and values. It’s rare to find people who care this much and show up with so much heart, talent, and dedication.
If you’re looking for a team who just gets it, works with integrity, and brings your dream to life — VioPixel is it.

The Landings Golf & Athletic Club has partnered with Falls & Company for the past five years. Our business has grown significantly since Falls has assisted us with print creative, digital marketing, and lead generation. They work with you every step of the way and have a very systematic approach that has helped us achieve our goals of adding more than 1,200 new memberships to our club since 2019. I would strongly recommend the team at Falls & Company to businesses aiming to expand their brand.

I worked with Falls & Co. for more than four years, and I highly recommend this agency for any organization, large or small, looking for marketing or PR expertise. They contributed immensely to the success of our business. The retail energy industry is not easy to learn or succeed at, but the people at Falls were persistent in learning the industry, and creative in their solutions. I enjoyed working with them on a personal level as well—they were both professional, transparent, while friendly and personable. While I’ve moved on from the company where I worked with Falls, I would be thrilled to be their client again.

We have worked intensively with Falls Communications for more than a year on a merger of two non profit organizations. From the beginning, we found them to very engaged and responsive and eager to learn about the culture of both organizations so they could maximize their effectiveness. All of the content was crafted sensitively, expeditiously and expertly. The counsel regarding how, when and to whom to communicate was always wise and sound. All of our stakeholders have commented about the quality and transparency of our communications and that has made what could be a difficult and challenging process much, much easier.

Reputation Management
Public Relations
Data sourced from the agency's DesignRush profile, its website, and other relevant accounts
Reputation management directly affects revenue and trust.
Reputation management typically includes:
Monitoring brand sentiment across search engines, review platforms, social media, news sites, and online communities
Managing reviews and ratings, including responding to feedback and encouraging positive customer experiences
Improving search visibility by promoting favorable content and addressing harmful or misleading material when appropriate
Crisis and issue response to contain negative press, complaints, or reputational risks
Content and presence management to ensure brand-owned channels accurately reflect company values and messaging
In the U.S., 67.7% of consumers say online reviews influence purchasing decisions, and buyers read an average of 9-10 reviews before making a purchase. Poor brand perception can cost businesses up to 14.7% in lost revenue, while positive reviews increase trust and conversions.
How much do reputation management companies in the USA charge?
Reputation management pricing in the United States ranges between $100 and $500 per hour or $5,000 and $20,000 per engagement. Final billing will depend on agency scope, engagement size, and time commitment. Here’s what you can expect:
Average hourly rate: According to DesignRush data, the top reputation management firms charge an average of $107 per hour.
Lower minimum budgets: 19.5% of agencies accept projects with a minimum budget under $1,000.
Higher minimum budgets: Only 0.7% of agencies require a minimum project budget of $50,000, showing that fewer agencies operate at that entry point.
Typical engagement cost: Online reputation management solutions generally range from $5,000 to $20,000.
Time commitment: These engagements typically involve 50-200 hours spread over several months, depending on the scope and complexity.
Can a business rebuild trust after reputational damage?
Yes, they can absolutely rebuild trust after reputational damage.
Research shows that 90% of consumers trust brands more when they openly acknowledge mistakes, and thoughtful responses to negative reviews lead 33% of customers to update or remove critical feedback.
Companies with mature reputation management strategies recover up to three times faster, often within weeks rather than months, by addressing issues head-on instead of staying silent.
If you’re in this situation, a reputation management agency will help you do the following:
Assess the impact by tracking sentiment, reviews, customer churn, and revenue signals.
Align internal stakeholders so leadership, legal, PR, and support teams share one consistent response.
Respond transparently with explicit acknowledgment and visible corrective actions.
Engage directly with feedback to demonstrate accountability and regain confidence.
Reinforce positive trustsignals by amplifying verified reviews, testimonials, and earned coverage.
What’s the difference between brand management and reputation management?
Brand management and reputation management influence how a company is perceived, but they serve different purposes. Specifically, brand management focuses on the image a company intentionally creates.Reputation management, on the other hand, reflects how a company is actually perceived based on real-world behavior.
Here’s a more detailed breakdown of their differences:
Brand Management
Reputation Management
Brand identity, positioning, and messaging
Visual elements like logos and design systems
Customer experience across marketing channels
Customer reviews and ratings
Employee and leadership actions
Media coverage and public response to issues
How brands handle feedback, complaints, and crises
With 81% of US consumers saying they must trust a brand before buying, both brand management and reputation management play a crucial role in revenue and growth.
Is reputation management different for small businesses vs. large enterprises?
Yes, reputation management looks very different for small businesses and large enterprises, mainly due to visibility and risk exposure.
For small businesses, it’s highly immediate and localized. Most customers discover small brands through search results and reviews, and 90% of consumers say positive reviews influence their buying decisions.
With fewer brand touchpoints and limited margin for error, even a small number of negative reviews can directly impact sales. As a result, these companies have their reputation management provider focus on:
Monitoring and responding to reviews
Local search visibility and credibility
Consistent customer experience and feedback
As for large enterprises, reputation management operates at a broader level. It typically involves:
Cross-functional coordination across PR, legal, HR, and leadership
Ongoing media and sentiment monitoring
Governance, leadership visibility, and crisis preparedness
