Results-driven public relations, social media, content marketing & issues management. mavenagency.com Crisis Management: What keeps you up at night?
Public Relations: The world of communications and PR has changed. Mass media and trade media relations, sponsorships, corporate blogs, social networks, Twitter, Google, YouTube and mobile are all part of the game now. Today’s oversaturated market requires a PR team that realizes these are no longer separate channels, but part of an integrated strategy that helps you stand out, speak up, educate an
d inspire. It’s about communicating the right message to the right audience so you can break through the clutter and deliver real marketing ROI. Corporate Communications: Effective corporate communications helps organizations explain their mission, vision and values in a cohesive message to employees and stakeholders. At Maven, we understand that a successful corporate communications program considers both the internal and external messages in order to create a common strategic framework. Internally, our team works closely with your organization to create campaigns that address communication gaps, improve collaboration between managers and employees and encourage engagement to drive better business outcomes. Externally, our team works to help shape your target audience’s perception of your organization’s brand, image and reputation for improved results and stronger relationships with key constituents.

Our approach includes an integrated 360 degree view of potential issues, risks, tools and communications channels, including how to manage and respond to crises online.

Today, anyone with a mobile phone or internet access can impact sales, influence change and make or break company reputations. To harness the power of this growing medium, you need more than an intern and a page. You need measurable goals and an actionable plan. Whether it’s creating thought leaders, promoting new products, building brand evangelists or driving sales, we help companies create a social media strategy that helps achieve their business objectives. Our analytics-driven approach means we measure real results, not made-up-metrics.

Maven recently attended the Philadelphia launch of the nonprofit’s Voices of History program at the historic Mother Bethel African Methodist Episcopal Church.
Keynote speaker Erica Armstrong Dunbar kicked off the program. The acclaimed historian, National Book Award finalist, and Emory College professor discussed her book “Never Caught: The Washingtons’ Relentless Pursuit of Their Runaway Slave, Ona Judge,” which tells the story of George Washington’s enslaved cook who risked everything to escape from the nation’s first presidential household.

Reputation and trust are business assets, not the byproduct of good perception management.
Decisions are increasingly judged on how they're communicated and whether they hold up against an organization's stated values. In her latest blog post, Veronica Mikitka Reed makes the case for communications moving from a support function to a strategic one, with Chief Communications Officers now operating as direct partners to the CEO.
Last week, Veronica Mikitka Reed and interns Sofia McClintock and Danielle McCarthy took a behind-the-scenes tour of the 6abc Action News studio. Thanks to PRSA Philadelphia Chapter, they got to see the newsroom, the control center, and the studio.
It was a great chance to see how a broadcast really comes together!

Neighbors, educators, organizers, librarians, faith leaders, and volunteers. They're the people who keep civic life running — the Window Keepers of our communities, as Yolanda Wisher's poem puts it.
This summer, in honor of the nation's 250th anniversary, PA Humanities is inviting anyone in Pennsylvania to nominate a Window Keeper in their county. Over 50 individuals across the Commonwealth have already been selected for The Window Keeper: Civic Honors.
Know someone who deserves that recognition? Submit your nomination by this Friday, July 31: https://bit.ly/4wW4udT
