To support this immense client growth, the agency welcomed 28 new staffers to the team. Among their most buzzed-about campaigns of late are the launch of Sam Nazarian's C3 food empire, the opening of LEGOLAND NY and the Queen's Gambit hotel room at 21c Museum Hotel Lexington.

What was your biggest business challenge this year and how did your team overcome it?
COVID changed people in terms of where they want to work. To accommodate everyone, we now provide offices for people who want to be in a workplace environment in NYC, Miami and LA, as well as the options to work from home and even to work and live anywhere. We had team members working from Paris and the Caribbean this summer.
Is there a big industry trend you’re backing in terms of your agency offering, and why do you think this area will continue to grow and influence the PR practice?
We are seeing more paid-media opportunities and media buys that include added-value opportunities as publishers look to increase revenue streams. At the luxury level, more brands are working together for cross-promotional lead generation and awareness building.
