What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

What stands out most impressively about Otter PR is their unparalleled expertise in aligning our brand's mission around mental health and suicide prevention with strategic media opportunities. Their approach to storytelling not only amplified our message but did so with a deep understanding and sensitivity toward the topics we're passionate about.

Their dedication to achieving tangible results while maintaining a strong ethical compass truly distinguishes them in the field of public relations.

Are there any areas for improvement or something Otter Public Relations could have done differently?

One aspect of working with Otter PR that has room for improvement is the highly competitive nature of securing premier media opportunities. These opportunities can sell out extremely quickly, which sometimes makes it challenging to capitalize on them. 

Additionally, their agency's emphasis tends to lean more toward paid media strategies rather than earned media. This focus on paid placements over earned ones means that while we're able to achieve high visibility, the balance and potential benefits of organic reach and credibility that come with earned media are not as prominently featured in our strategy. Adapting to these dynamics requires nimble planning and sometimes recalibrating our expectations toward media engagement.
