Magic Hour
Hiring a PR team might seem ‘extravagant’ but I cannot think of a better investment to make into your business. I would have missed out on a ton of opportunities if it had not been for them as part of my team. The pandemic brought about a big change to my business & Amber and her team have been nothing but champions of small businesses during this time. They helped me come up with ideas to keep my customers engaged & constantly asked how they could support us during this difficult time. I trust Amber & her team to handle any PR needs for Magic Hour.

I started working with Amber & CultureHype as I started working on my third location. I knew I wanted to ramp up awareness & social media presence of my first two businesses, Double Wide & Single Wide so it would help the launch of the new kiddo Thunderbird Station. I was extremely happy with the amount of press & social buzz they had brought to the businesses. As I got deeper into the construction & opening process of Thunderbird, I knew I was going to need to take some things off my plate. The ladies of CultureHype were right there for me & jumped in with eagerness & the fun attitude my brand requires to help me with running our social media.

They were able to come to the sites & capture great content. We worked together very well on nailing our voice & staying on brand. We are not your average conservative establishments & I love that these ladies were willing to push the boundaries, think outside the box, & go exactly where we are used to going.

Culture Hype really helped me gain traction on my new EP and connected me to so many cool and innovative opportunities. Amber and Wendy really made me feel motivated and excited and by utilizing their connections, I was able to land an incredible feature in D Magazine as well as collaborations across many indie blogs. Their positivity and consistent communication made the partnership very enjoyable and successful.
