Media Practice

KGPR strives to build and maintain strong relationships with writers and reporters across the country. Our goal is to get your company or your product the best visibility and exposure possible.  Core capabilities in our media practice include:

Message development is critical to selling  your company’s new campaign, key executive, product, service or philanthropy. We are also adept at building a compelling story that effectively delivers your message and reinforces your brand.

Visibility and media placements can elevate name recognition and take a company to high levels of success. KGPR utilizes our network of media relationships to get editorial placements in publications that have the ability to affect your bottom line.

We have secured coverage for our clients in the following national and international media outlets:

The Arizona Republic, Business Journal of Phoenix, KPNX 12 News, Houston Chronicle, The Houston Business Journal, KTRK-ABC News 13, CBS affiliate KHOU 11, FOX 26, Houston Style, and Black Enterprise, Business Week, Barrons, The Economist, Financial Times, The London Times, Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, Yomiuri Shimbun, Agence France Presse, Portland Business Journal, Sacramento Bee, Sacramento Business Journal, New Mexico Business Weekly, Daily Oklahoman, amongst others.

Press tours and events are an effective way to garner exposure and attention from targeted publications. Althought some may find it a daunting task to organize and manage a number of visiting reporters or travelling executives, we thrive on it.

Press Conferences can play an important role in any media strategy but are only effective if they are developed and executed with the press in mind. We know how to plan a media-friendly event whether it’s at the National Press Club or your company lobby.
