Forbes: Axia is one of America’s Best PR Agencies

Ranking within the top 4% of U.S. PR firms

 

To determine the Forbes list, Statista surveyed more than 12,700 experts (i.e., employees of PR agencies and freelancers) and 20,500 customers (i.e., employees in PR/marketing departments or decision-makers) between June and July 2020. Respondents were asked to nominate PR agencies with which they had experience working; self-nominations and recommendations within PR agency networks were not considered. Some 5,000 nominations were collected. Participants were asked to indicate how likely they were to nominate a particular agency on a scale of zero (very unlikely) to 10 (very likely). Statista identified those PR firms with the highest number of recommendations. Only 200 PR firms made the final ranking. [more]
