Explain how your agency is pushing the boundaries of PR and communications by integrating innovative strategies, tools, or technologies to enhance your offerings and benefit your clients.

“The pandemic reinforced that the most essential aspect of our business is our relationships, and that we need to invest as much time as possible into nurturing existing and fostering new relationships with press, talent, as well as clients. It’s clear that we can’t spend all of our time behind a computer if we want to be effective at coming up with relevant, creative ideas and strategies and creating new connections for clients. With this in mind, we continue to incorporate new technologies to streamline our workflow, in order to focus more of our time and efforts on our relationships. Tools like Meltwater, Lefty, Google Drive, various accounting apps, Slack, and more, help us save time so we can focus on what matters most. We’re also beginning to incorporate AI technologies, like ChatGPT, to streamline workflow where it currently makes sense.”
