Great PR is at the heart of every successful marketing and communications campaign. Regardless of your audience, it’s the art of brilliant storytelling that will make you stand out in a crowded media landscape, whether in traditional press, online or on social. Earned media remains the most powerful, impactful and respected way to attract attention, engage audiences and influence behaviours. Team tartanbond are natural born storytellers who will help you spark conversations and win over hearts and minds.
As well as telling a compelling story, your content has to pass the ‘so what’ test. What’s new, different or interesting? Our content team get under the skin of your business to unearth what makes you tick and uncover newsworthy nuggets that will help bring your story to life. We put ourselves in the shoes of the audiences you want to reach to ensure we’re producing content that’s interesting, meaningful, helpful, informative and entertaining, delivered where and when it has the greatest impact. Our creative approach ensures your brand is getting the results you want, whether we’re newsjacking, staging an engaging event or eye-catching stunt, enlisting a brilliant brand ambassador, relevant influencer or developing expert-led content. We bring our content to life in many different ways, through words, pictures, animation and film.
Our experience as an authentic and innovative PR agency has seen us complete PR campaigns for some of Canada’s biggest businesses and brands who have trusted us with their reputations for decades. Traditional public relations might be where we started but we have evolved to offer a future-first, fully integrated traditional, digital and social approach to earned media, leaving no stone unturned for our clients and all from a single source, meaning their budgets are maximized too. Crisis communications and reputation management are integral to our offering.
Our PR services span corporate, B2B, consumer, crisis, digital and social and we have experience across most sectors of business and industry. We work across everything from retail, fashion & beauty, healthcare, real estate, planning & construction through to travel, leisure & hospitality, food & drink, technology and the environment. We are in touch with the issues facing most businesses today, including the delivery of sustainability and ED&I initiatives for some of the Canada’s biggest brands. While we’re a full service, full sector agency, we adopt a boutique approach to our clients’ industries, working with start-ups, SMEs, entrepreneurs and corporates, alike. It’s impactful, meaningful work rather than project scale that inspires us.
