Why did Jeff Graubard name his PR firm The Other Agency? For starters, the name served a practical purpose, in that it was the other agency he started after spending more than 25 years running the Manhattan-based Graubard Group.

As we come to find out in ...

As a marketer, you wouldn’t send the same message to both those groups because they have different needs and values and respond to very different trigger points.

You may remember Dan Lee with PR Talent from past PR talk episodes. In fact, I enjoy talking with him so much that I’ve actually had him on the podcast multiple times before the Coronavirus storm hit the world.
