Inspired by a genuine need, James Public Relations emerged from much reflection on the challenges faced by school districts, nonprofits, and small businesses in the Pittsburgh area. Often constrained by tight budgets, the vulnerability of communication and public relations roles become apparent and are often deemed expendable. Understandably, the choice between allocating resources to essential employees and communications professionals is stark. However, we firmly believe that effective communication plans along with dedicated personnel are pivotal not only for success but also for the prosperity of the communities they serve.

James Public Relations was developed as a solution to this dilemma. Recognizing financial limitations, we offer valuable, professional, and expert communication services at an affordable rate.  James Public Relations steps in to get the job done even when there isn't a large marketing budget available, and you receive a direct connection to a seasoned communications professional.

Our commitment is strong to support those who better our communities through education, nonprofits, and small businesses.  As K-12 schools shape our future leaders, we acknowledge the diverse paths those students take beyond graduation—whether it's pursuing higher education, entering the workforce, or embarking on entrepreneurial ventures. Kristen, the driving force behind James Public Relations, identified the gap in affordable communication services for small business owners by drawing from her experience as the wife of an entrepreneur. In today's uncertain economic climate, there's a demand for clear and direct communication without the burden of hefty retainers and hourly rates that you can expect from large firms.

At James Public Relations, we recognize the value of crafting compelling content to narrate your story to potential customers. Our mission is to make high-quality communication accessible, ensuring that both educational institutions and small businesses can thrive in an interconnected world.
