Attn! Marketing PR is a public relations and marketing firm at 204 Queen Street East in Hastings, working with Hawke's Bay businesses, councils and national brands since 2003. Founded by former journalists Anna Lorck and Damon Harvey, the agency also publishes The Profit, Hawke's Bay's business magazine, and takes new client enquiries by phone.
Good public relations work is mostly storytelling with a purpose: shaping a business's reputation through media coverage, content and community relationships rather than paid advertising alone. Agencies with a newsroom background tend to know what editors actually want, which often makes the difference between a story that runs and a release that is quietly ignored. When choosing a firm, it pays to ask about their media contacts, their reach beyond the region, and campaigns they have led from start to finish.
For businesses wanting their story told from Hawke's Bay to further afield, Attn! is a long-established local name on Queen Street East.
