PR Strategies Inc was founded in 1993 by communications specialist Patricia Robitaille.

Prior to starting her own public relations consulting practice in Vancouver, Patricia worked for five years at agencies Burson-Marsteller (now National Public Relations), and Optimum Public Relations.

How PR Strategies Works:

As a communications specialist in Vancouver, Patricia has actively promoted her services to agencies and companies outside of BC who seek expertise in this market. The result has been the opportunity to work with a variety of large national clients. Often this work has involved developing and executing media relations strategies for BC, as part of a national campaign. Patricia is very experienced at both working locally and liaising with clients in cities across North America.

The Advantage:

The advantage Patricia offers her clients is consistency, and access to senior-level strategic planning, advice, and execution. Patricia works with clients and the media directly; media relations is not passed down to junior staff. Clients receive the same senior level of counsel available at larger firms, but at more competitive rates.

Patricia has well-established relationships with Vancouver media, and knows how to get through to this tough Canadian media market. Given Canada’s bilingual market, Patricia’s ability to speak fluent French greatly expands her access to media, and is a benefit to Quebec-based clients.

Patricia really understands what journalists need to do their jobs. She is a pleasure to work with, and I wouldn’t hesitate to refer to anyone who needs media relations help in Vancouver.
