The PR Net 100, 2024: UpSpring

UpSpring is a dynamic agency that drives exponential growth for its clients. With expertise spanning real estate, AEC, product companies, prop-tech startups, healthcare, fund management, home decor, and gaming, UpSpring creates multifaceted campaigns designed to elevate brands in a rapidly changing media landscape. Over the past year, the agency’s podcast, The Design Board, hosted by the SURROUND Podcast Network, has reached nearly 50 episodes and over 8,000 downloads. The podcast features diverse voices and explores emerging trends in the AEC industry, enhancing UpSpring’s influence within the design community. Another significant achievement is the launch of “The Circle,” UpSpring’s networking community aimed at adding value through professional development and tailored programming. Since its launch, The Circle has expanded to include a broader client base and offers diverse programming such as webinars and roundtable discussions, fostering a collaborative environment. UpSpring’s recent growth has been driven by strategic expansions into new markets, including healthcare, premium pet products, and luxury beverages. The acquisition of Epiphany Studio has further strengthened UpSpring’s service offerings, allowing the agency to provide a comprehensive approach that includes paid and social media, content development, SEO, and more.
