Our Mission
We strive to develop unique and insightful approach to get the recognition our clients deserve. We focus on raising awareness around our clients’ efforts using a mix of traditional and digital PR strategy. The world of public relations has been dramatically changing with the fast-paced technology advances, social media and e-commerce. We know that using solely the traditional publicity efforts targeting print, TV media or advertising is no longer enough to get the desired results in this digital era. This is where we come in. Our understanding of the multi-platform competitive world of news allows us to create comprehensive PR and marketing plans that make our clients stand out and generate authentic engagement.
The digital marketing experts estimate that most Americans are exposed to around 4,000 to 10,000 ads on a daily basis. We, as a company, understand that in order to bring success to our clients, we can’t ignore the psychology aspect behind PR strategy. This is where our clients often ask us the same question: “How do we get people to care?” Understanding the psychology behind what gets people’s attention, creates emotions and invokes action is the key to developing desired audience attachment to our clients’ brands. Our approach is personal which effectively translates into the work we do.
We operate with genuine approach, honesty, sound ethics and transparency, becoming a united team with our clients. We like to work with like-minded brands and organizations to create an empowered atmosphere that leads to long-term collaborations and powerful results. At Mia Public Relations we determine the success of our company by the growth and success of our clients.
