Ranked No. 201 on the Inc. 5000 List
CEO reputation management is not a vanity exercise. In one landmark executive-reputation study, 45% of a company's reputation was attributed to the CEO's reputation, and 44% of a public company's market value was tied to the CEO's reputation, which is why this work sits inside online reputation management, not just communications. That same research found […]
Read moreA prospective client searches your name after a referral. They see a few prominent negative reviews, an incomplete Google Business Profile, inconsistent office information, and no clear evidence that you understand their neighborhood or property type. Your actual experience may be strong, but the search results tell a thinner story. The prospect contacts another realtor […]
Read moreClient success metrics for reputation and PR programs start with a hard truth: activity is not proof. Net revenue retention is the cleanest historical proof that customer success can drive growth, not just reduce damage. Gainsight's glossary says best-in-class companies are greater than 100% and ideally greater than 110% on NRR, which means existing customers […]
Read moreManaging corporate reputation used to sit mostly with the communications department, treated as a matter of press coverage and public statements. That framing is outdated. Recent research has put a hard number on what reputation is actually worth to a company’s balance sheet, and the figure is large enough that managing corporate reputation now belongs […]
Read moreYour CEO is in a meeting, your comms lead is staring at a search results page, and a negative story just jumped from one complaint thread to page one. Legal wants to slow down, sales wants a response, and someone in operations is already asking whether the customer records are safe. That's the moment an […]
Read moreA crisis rarely starts with a press conference. It starts with a customer complaint that gets traction, a rumor that spreads before your team logs in, or a post that forces your leadership group to decide whether to answer now or wait for legal review. By the time a statement is drafted, the battle is […]
Read moreYour best referral source can blow up in one morning. A managing partner opens Google before the first high-value intake call, sees an outdated news brief on page one, a thin Avvo profile, and a two-star review with no response. Nothing illegal happened, nothing dramatic happened, and yet the prospect has already started deciding whether […]
Read moreThe call comes in while you're still reading yesterday's negative review. A patient complains publicly about wait time, a local reporter emails about an incident at one site, and your front desk team says Google is already showing the wrong hours. That's not a branding problem. That's healthcare reputation management failing where patients make decisions, […]
Read moreMonday morning is when these plans prove whether they're real. A team wakes up to a public complaint, a staff screenshot starts circulating, the phone rings before coffee, and someone says, “Pull the crisis plan.” If that plan is buried in a folder, missing names, or written like a legal memo nobody can act on, […]
Read moreTraffic still gets treated like the main scorecard for content performance, but that’s the wrong standard for reputation work. Content performance analytics should measure whether a page changes what people believe, not just how many sessions it pulls, especially when AI Overviews and other zero-click features answer the query before anyone reaches your site. That […]
