Sometimes PR is not pretty.

 

I help businesses and philanthropic foundations when they face communications challenges that put their enterprise at risk. I help
you regain control of your communications when most of what people are hearing about your company is determined by others: lawyers
and litigators; radical bloggers who are long on opinions but short on facts; lopsided media stories; and others with  an agenda that conflicts with yours. One of my clients calls me her "Fixer." I like that title.

Reputation and Crisis Management  When you need a communications advocate
to take back control of your story

I solve problems. I am a communications professional in areas where creativity and complexity intersect, usually in the most crucial area of communications: Reputation Management.

One of my clients calls me her "Fixer," because I take messy situations or challenging assignments and make things right. I do this through creative communications, crisis management, litigation PR, public relations, long-term project support, and outsourced management consulting in areas where creativity and complexity intersect. Usually when people call on me, they have a high-stakes situation that requires innovative ideas, solid financial acumen, sensitivity to budgets, and deep experience in dealing with extremely technical or legalistic communications. I can work with teams of engineers, attorneys and lawyers, top executives, and other communications professionals to steer an organization through challenging situations from bankruptcies to lawsuits and litigation to product recalls and other areas where the organization’s reputation is on the line.

Sometimes you want to get your story into the news, to set the record straight.  Other times you need to keep out of the news due to pending litigation, confidentiality agreements, or the need for an announcement to be made only on YOUR timetable.

I can serve as a consultant, a contract support member of your team, or as a trainer. I specialize in nonprofit, foundation, medical, technical and legal work.

 

Highview is a Fort Wayne Public Relations firm serving local and global enterprises


Outsourced Communications Executive  I work as an embedded member of the client's team, providing outsourced executive PR support for high-stakes initiatives with highly complex, technical or legalistic content

I own a small, specialized firm that provides services that ad agencies don't or choose not to provide, for philanthropic foundations and health / medical companies. Most of our clients have highly technical needs or have small projects that are not a good fit in the traditional agency model. People choose our firm when they need someone who can handle extremely technical, complex content, or assignments with significant legal exposure or implications. My firm is very small, a good fit for companies that want the personal attention of an owner and a Graphic Designer, who've worked together for 20+ years. Experience, Trust and Confidence, Complexity, Confidentiality -- these are the reasons someone would seek me out.


Skills & Expertise Services are delivered through contract assignments for temporary marketing executive support

My independent, consultative Communications services are aligned closely with the business structure of each client.  I provide strategic communications that support overarching business objectives and build and protect the reputation of the organization; shape company point-of-view and messaging to external and internal audiences; identify and execute public relations opportunities; guide the company through complex communications issues; and motivate and engage employees through internal communications strategies and tools. My clients are the communications heads at their companies or small business owners
who need specialized skill or just extra "on-demand" staffing support in special situations.

 Diligence Here is a favorite compliment ever received from a client:
"Steve, no one is more diligent than you"

Diligence. I was pleased because that is exactly how I try to add value for clients. I may be creative, but so are others. I may be talented, but so are others. But I will not let anyone outdo me in the "diligence" department! Because in today's PR world, getting things done independently, overcoming obstacles, solving problems, seeing opportunities, tending to the details, and pushing things through to completion -- these are the traits that separate "excellent" from "good." So when you think of what I offer you, the "intangible" that can't be taught or bought, think "diligence."
