What is Seymour Public Relations?
We are strategic. We are creative. We are effective.
Without strategy — creativity is child’s play. Without creativity
– strategy is just plain boring. We believe strongly that our “special sauce”
combination of strategic thinking and out of the ordinary creativity is what
allows us to meet and exceed client expectations again and again.
At Seymour Public Relations (SPR) we view ourselves as part of
your team rather than as an outside agency. We take on very few clients at a
time and put great care into our work. We pride ourselves on being able to
surprise you with amazing results!
We love doing pr in a variety of industries and have strong
experience working with companies in the consumer, food, beverage, fashion and
not-for-profit sectors. SPR is known for helping both emerging start-ups and
internationally known brands increase exposure and improve brand reputation.
Clients find themselves featured in the top media outlets such as the Wall
Street Journal, New York Times, USA Today, Forbes, Fortune, Time, Crain’s and
Newsweek as well as on national and local television and radio shows such as
the “Today” show, “The Early Show” and “Good Morning America.” We have a very
strong social media team and clients count on us to engage directly with
consumers on their behalf in blogs, on Facebook and through Twitter and beyond.
In addition to media relations and strategic marketing solutions,
SPR readily plans major events and negotiates strategic partnerships. We assist
with beta trials, user group interaction and new product launches. We also have
expertise in media training, speech writing, internal communications,
copywriting and crisis management.
Successful pr is about the people behind the “client,” “media,”
and “target customer base.” With a strong emphasis on creativity (helping
clients stand out) and strategy (ensuring objectives are met) we always remain
focused on the people involved.
Who are “we”?
SPR is run by Ilya Welfeld, a public relations expert with deep
experience helping clients communicate with the public. Ilya oversees the
agency and is supported by cream-of-the-crop public relations professionals
around the country. We are not limited by the bounds of office walls and desks.
Instead, our teams are made of professionals, working from satellite offices,
Starbucks and tree houses nationwide, who are passionate about their work and
yours. Our “virtual teams” are made up of senior pr executives with expertise
in specific industries enabling us to bring together the right team for the
right client every time. We have bases in NY, NJ, Florida, California, Nevada
and Israel.
