PUBLIC RELATIONS
LYA uncovers a world of angles in each client’s seminal message, so that campaigns stay fresh and rise above the PR “din” that barrages today’s writers, bloggers, editors and television producers. At the same time, LYA ferrets out upcoming stories and television segments, getting clients in on the ground floor. LYA is equipped to handle all national, as well as regional and local PR. In order to garner maximum media exposure, LYA utilizes the most powerful combination of tools and resources available today.
LYA listens very carefully to what our clients have to say in terms of their goals and expectations. We work with them to conduct robust category research and data analysis in order to develop communications strategies that will produce the desired results.
Press communication documents generated by the team never get the “delete” button. We work very closely with our clients to establish unique brand positioning and messaging. Once this is accomplished, it is crucial for us to develop a distinctive brand voice that will not only reflect the brand’s position, image and tone, but will also resonate with your target audience and be the critical foundation for the generation of press materials and other collateral communications.
We know how to get the media’s attention to engage them with our brand messages and exciting story ideas. Our provocative, yet thoughtful press outreach documents and pitch concepts always produce outstanding results.
Relationships are at the core of everything we do. The LYA team prides itself on building long lasting media relationships. Our contacts are not just a name on a list. We make it our business to connect in meaningful ways, oftentimes meeting with them desk-side to introduce them to a new product, service or client expert. These meetings allow us to work with editors and producers to ensure inclusion in upcoming stories and segments.

CELEBRITY OUTREACH AND EVENTS

LYA targets appropriate celebrities through their publicists and directly through social media to test clients’ products. Oftentimes, if they like the product(s), engaged celebrities will provide social media mentions for your brand that can then be used as leverage in relevant PR outreach without the costs of hiring a paid celebrity spokesperson.
Additionally, LYA monitors and evaluates all appropriate celebrity events/gift bag and sampling opportunities. We focus solely on A-List events where the client will see a return on investment via celebrity photos and social media shares that can be leveraged for PR purposes.
