MISSION
As a public relations and artist development company, we consult with clients on image development and media exposure.
We take on clients for individual projects, corporate PR, and full-career artist development.
In conjunction with an client’s team we develop media plans that can encompass an artist’s entire career or simply one project.
The areas of media we target are print, television, online based media (e.g. blogs and podcasts) and radio (support, not airplay).
CONSULTING SERVICES
Sometimes a full-time publicist is financially out of reach, or perhaps all a client needs is some brainstorming and idea-generating without the full services offered by having a publicist.
Morris Public Relations accepts a small number of clients for consulting only.
