What is a public affairs agency?

A public affairs agency is a specialized public relations service provider that helps its clients manage relationships with public affairs organizations such as government offices and regulatory boards. These companies typically provide crisis management, media relations, and stakeholder management services. By partnering with an experienced public affairs agency, you can benefit from their expertise in the industry’s nuances and possible challenges. These companies respond to companies aiming to establish strong relationships with key organizations or institutions.

Where can I find an experienced and reliable public affairs agency?

When looking for an experienced and reliable public affairs agency, searching online reviews from previous clients and asking for referrals from people who have worked with the company can be helpful. Additionally, you can check out professional directories such as Clutch or The Manifest, which offer reviews on various public affairs firms across the globe. You can also look for companies that are members of national or international PR associations, such as the International Public Relations Association (IPRA), Public Relations Society of America (PRSA), and Public Relations and Communications Association (PRCA). These associations ensure their members adhere to high standards and ethics when providing services.

What should I look for when choosing public affairs companies?

It is essential to choose public affairs companies that understand your goals and budget limitations while being able to deliver effective solutions through their experience and expertise in the industry. Look for agencies specializing in brand management, crisis communication, public affairs PR, press communication, and internal communication so you are sure they can provide what you need. Check out reviews online from past customers or ask for referrals from people who have worked with the company before to get an idea of their quality of work.

Is it worth hiring local public affairs companies, or can they be based somewhere else?

Hiring local public affairs companies has definite advantages for businesses needing geographical expertise. For instance, they have extensive knowledge of the local market. They can do in-person meetings to discuss better your needs – all of which are essential elements for achieving success with public affairs projects. Still, it may be wise for companies to keep their minds open to nearshoring and offshoring due to their capabilities of providing cost-effective services, and they also boast an international network that your business can utilize.
