Business Community Relations
Managing Communications Consulting has brought new meaning to community relations for many small businesses because of our creative use of our long-standing relationships. It takes a certain kind of synergy to bring together small businesses with the same common interests and implement a way for all to benefit. From creating partnerships between for-profits and non-profits to developing a seminar on a topic which puts three clients on a panel with attendees from all their client lists, we are instrumental in creating face-to-face opportunities.
We take the guesswork out of identifying the benefits of board and committee involvement with business related and non-profit organizations. Because of our involvement in so many organizations, we are aware of numerous opportunities for giveaways, auction items, and sponsorships as well as table top displays which will create positive impressions on your potential and current customers. 
Company Openings, Celebrations, Events
It is not surprising that we think a special business event is much like opening night of a play or dance performance. The philosophy of the firm’s president, Susan Long-Molnar’s theatre and communications degree and years of semi-professional dance performance is carried on through professionally orchestrated opportunities for businesses to be "on-stage".
Providing the right image for grand openings, open houses, seminars, and trade shows is as important as the look and feel your customers and visitors experience when they visit your offices. Managing Communications Consulting is an extension of your team, providing advice and resources as needed to pull off a memorable event.
You can count on your PR firm to design and implement materials, from brochures to a new or updated trade show display. Even more, we know how to get the right people in front of you so that your messages will be remembered and so that you have the opportunity to influence each attendee.
