Premium PR. High-Octane Results.

Bondarook & Associates, LLC is a public relations and integrated marketing communications consultancy designed to provide clients, who are facing increased competition and smaller marketing budgets, with flexible, affordable access to senior PR practitioners and customized PR programs.

We operate as a network of independent senior associates who come together, when needed, to ensure client success.

Your Rapid Response Team

Think of us as a 'Rapid Response Team' for clients who recognize the need to maintain visibility during the economic downturn, in order to position themselves for long-term, post-recession success.

Our associates have both agency and in-house experience with dot-coms, companies preparing for liquidity events, e-commerce operations, and traditional public and private brick-and-mortar businesses in high-tech, health care/life sciences, retail & hospitality, financial services, transportation, real estate & development, education, manufacturing, government and nonprofit sectors.

We can help you objectively evaluate your communication strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and competitive threats; develop solid strategies that map back to your business plan; and implement cost-effective tactics that will help you accomplish your short- and long-term objectives.

If you need assistance -- on an hourly, project or ongoing basis -- turn to Bondarook & Associates. Because of our operating structure and low overhead, we are able to provide emerging and established businesses with effective communications services for less than typical agency rates.

We can:

• Serve as your public relations agency of record
• Extend your in-house PR capabilities
• Augment your current agency's skill sets
• Stage and manage special events
• Defuse crises while your employees handle day-to-day PR

Written, Visual and Verbal Communications.

Because of my background as a journalist, I am able to quickly grasp a company's business and communication needs, and translate even the most complex information into easy-to-understand messages, compelling stories and sustainable identities that resonate with target audiences, drive specific behaviors and help clients achieve business goals.

Specialties: • Media/Analyst Relations • Executive Communications • Speech Writing & Ghost Writing • HR/Diversity and Inclusion • Mergers, Acquisitions & IPOs • Organizational Communications • Crisis/Issues Management • Public Affairs • Customer/Partner Relations • Presentational Speaking Coach • Messaging, Positioning, Branding • Advertising Design/Copywriting • Collateral Material Production

We Dig Deeper.

In today's Internet-connected business environment, we manage our accounts through a combination of digital, telephone and face-to-face interactions. We strive to be true partners and our clients value us not only for our tactical execution, but also for our understanding of their businesses and our strategic input.

As a result of our ability to dig deeper and craft innovative approaches to problem solving, we've developed two ancillary offerings that can help new businesses get a jumpstart and enable established companies to better distinguish themselves from their competition.

"Fast Forward" provides startups with a fixed-price package of basic services that serve as a foundation for PR and communication with target audiences.

"Beyond Brand," is a one-day workshop for company leaders, which culminates in strategies for a sustainable identity that can endure the realities of today's financially troubled global marketplace of products, services and ideas.

Referrals to:

• Entrepreneurs and small businesses who can benefit from our 'Fast Forward' package of foundational public relations services that ensure they get a good start.

• Established mid-size organizations, which are poised for growth and success, but facing belt-tightening that they believe would prohibit them from obtaining quality PR & marketing assistance.

• Enterprise-sized corporate clients with business groups, product divisions or ancillary new business operations that could benefit from our high-quality, customized, affordable public, media and analyst relations services.

• Professional associations, government agencies and nonprofit organizations that can leverage our expertise and no-nonsense approach to ensuring high returns on their marketing dollar investments.
