About Us

Get the most out of your Automotive Public Relations campaign.

A well-crafted Automotive PR campaign is more than magazine clips and web stories: it moves product off the shelf and builds overall brand recognition for the future. A modern PR campaign distributes news and generates its own stories simultaneously.

True Public Relations is far more than sending press releases on new products. Kahn Media is respected by journalist and industry executives alike because we know how to relate to media professionals and we get stories placed in the right outlets to achieve client goals. We do this through high-tech digital outreach and old fashioned personal relationships. With experience in Automotive PR, Luxury Lifestyle PR, and Outdoor and Extreme Sports PR, we have the connections and relationships to deliver results.

We believe in blending technology with what we call “handshake PR.” Face-to-face media roundtables, new product demonstrations, trade show meetings and executive profiles do more than place stories and sell products: they forge relationships that last.

Media Relations

We maintain relationships with the most influential journalists in every segment and excel in placing stories in the outlets that your customers read and trust.

B2B Communications

Increase your distributor sales through a coordinated marketing strategy

Product Launches

From trade show press conferences to consumer and media events, we will design a product debut that fits your budget and marketing goals.

Event Management

We will help you get the most out of your events from on-site engagement, to consumer data capture, live social media updates, and post-event coverage.

Digital Media

Podcasts and online video series have quickly become some of the most popular ways that people now consume content and we will help get you and your products featured.

WE ARE THE STORYTELLERS – FROM TURNKEY EDITORIAL TO COMPELLING VIDEO WE WILL GET YOUR BRAND’S MESSAGE IN FRONT OF YOUR CUSTOMERS

As the traditional print media landscape continues to consolidate, there is more competition than ever for the shrinking number of pages. Not only does this make getting stories placed tougher, but the lead time between a story getting written and getting published has increased dramatically, making timely coverage of events, product launches, or company announcements anything but. The solution can be found in Brand Journalism.

With our pioneering concept of Brand Journalism, we drew upon our background as journalists and content creators to bring content marketing techniques into the 21^st century. Rather than waiting on other people to tell your story, we now give you the ability to tell it yourself. This is accomplished by creating stories for your company’s blog, shooting and producing unique and engaging videos, writing turn-key editorial stories, conducting direct-to-consumer email marketing in the form of a monthly newsletter, and even building complete consumer-facing websites that create a portal for all of the content.

What sets Brand Journalism apart for traditional content marketing is that we use our roots as a PR agency to maximize the distribution and exposure of every piece of content that we create. While no one can guarantee virality, we pitch every piece of content we create to relevant media outlets and enthusiast websites and social channels to maximize exposure and increase the chance that it will go viral. The reason this works is because the content that we create is real and is something people actually want to read and watch.

In-House Creative

OUR FULL SERVICE CREATIVE DEPARTMENT IS CAPABLE OF EVERYTHING FROM GRAPHIC DESIGN TO VIDEOGRAPHY, STUDIO PRODUCT PHOTOGRAPHY, AND WEB DESIGN

Branding

Your brand is what sets you apart from your competitors. It’s how your customer sees you. Branding goes beyond a logo. It is your companies complete image. What is your mission and what is the driving force behind your brand?

Graphic Design

What is the benefit of graphic if no one notices it? Graphic design not about special effects and complex designs, it boils down to communication (while still making it look cool). Grab the attention that your product deserves.

video

You are competing for your customers’ limited attention span and compelling videos are a great way to grab it. From concise videos for social engagement to event coverage and longer features, video content helps increase visibility and liven up your brand.

Studio Photography

Good product photography is the foundation for your sales and marketing efforts. You put lots of hard work and attention to detail into the design and creation of each product and we make sure the customer sees it too.
