• We are a digital PR agency.
  We started building websites in 1994, providing search engine optimization and e-commerce in 1998.
• Inbound marketing is a method of virtually attracting new customers to your company.
  We’re proud to be an inbound marketing partner agency with HubSpot.
• Here's a bit of wisdom most firms haven't caught onto yet: It's not enough anymore just to get your name in the news; now, staying on top of your online reputation is an absolute must.
  Our PR firm is uniquely qualified with a one-two punch:
  
       1. Earned media coverage
       We earn media coverage that's newer than and often outranks existing negative content.
  
       2. Search engine optimization for branded keywords to repair negative first impressions
       We know how to optimize positive and neutral content so it ranks higher – ideally, higher than negative content currently ranking on the first page(s) of search engine returns.
• Online reviews: Our ReviewMaxer online review management software improves your search engine optimization and online reputation. It even factors in earned media coverage, which ranks very highly on search engines.
• Check out 20 ways traditional PR doesn’t work anymore.

3. Value-driven approach

Instead of charging you for these items, we focus on driving great results.

• Complimentary services: Copy editing, media monitoring, and spokesperson training are often included for you as an Axia PR program client.
• Flat-rate billing: Instead of tracking hours, let's focus on value and results.
• We believe that hourly billing is neither in your best interest nor ours, so we avoid it as often as possible.
• By following our unique process and smart recommendations, we guarantee we'll document your true ROI for public relations – and we'll be excited to show it to you!
