Padded Room

Traditional public relations is dead. The press release is useless, and many PR agencies are clueless about the web.

Newsvetter is a new kind of consultancy designed to help you navigate and exploit the resulting chaotic landscape. Our senior consultants have decades of experience in traditional and digital media and know how to make your content compelling and accessible whether it's distributed through a website, email pitch, blog post, or social network.

Our unique "newsvetting" process saves you time and money by avoiding expensive PR campaigns that have little to no news value. Our process helps you to build new revenue streams through content that consumers will actually read and share with others.

As digital communications continue to evolve and create new avenues, we're committed to learning and experimenting with every PR tool available now and in the future. And we won't try to rip you off with some pricey one-size-fits-all contract; we offer an a la carte menu to provide whatever suits you best.
