Dallas, Texas, United States, 10/01/2015 /SubmitPressRelease123/
DALLAS (Sept. 30, 2015)—The Dallas Entrepreneur Center (DEC) has partnered with Dallas-based TrizCom Public Relations to open Pitch PR – Powered by TrizCom PR, a firm dedicated to promoting the innovation and news generated by the startup scene thriving in Dallas.
This unique partnership, a first for the city, will enable members of the Dallas entrepreneurial scene to benefit from public relations experts. Pitch PR’s understanding of this emerging and vibrant market will support the business development its clients while engaging the media through unique PR strategies.
“Entrepreneurs have limited resources in their quest to become ‘the next big thing,’ and by being lock-step with the culture and pace of the DEC and local entrepreneurs, Pitch PR will help emerging, early funded companies navigate through the mass media to build brand awareness, a need which all startups have in common. We firmly believe that, especially in early stages, founders are their own best spokespeople. Our hope is we can provide the expertise and insight necessary for entrepreneurs to gain news coverage and increase perception of their brand,” said Jo Trizila, president and CEO of TrizCom PR.
“Companies may start off only needing guidance, a PR coach once in a while, help on messaging, or a communications plan,” she continued. “Or, they may be at the stage where they require more of a full-service agency experience. In every instance, our goal is to grow with our clients.”
For each startup, individualized attention and different public relations service levels are available to help draw new customers to the business while at the same time engaging influencers and potential investors, and seeding future growth.
These three fee-based levels (ranging from entry-points of $150 and up) of service are: Entry, Working and Professional.
