Why Trust Clutch

At Clutch, we believe trust is the foundation of every business relationship. Our mission is to help buyers make confident, data-backed decisions informed by real client experiences.

Every review on Clutch undergoes a rigorous, human-led verification process to make sure it’s valid. Our team of specialists confirms the identity of each reviewer, ensures the project is legitimate, and only publishes reviews that meet our strict criteria.

Verification doesn’t stop at the point of publication. Our Trust & Safety team routinely audits older reviews against our guidelines. When reviews fall short of our standards, we remove them.

We evaluate service providers using a structured methodology that combines:

  • In-depth client interviews and ratings
  • Comprehensive project details
  • Market presence
  • Portfolio examples and industry recognition

This data powers tools like the Leaders Matrix, which helps you compare agencies directly. Our research team curates rankings by weighing verified reviews most heavily, so the most trusted and experienced providers rise to the top.

Using this unique combination of verified client feedback and provider-supplied insights, Clutch distills the most important details into clear, digestible summaries so you have everything you need to make confident, informed decisions quickly.

We take fraud seriously. Providers who violate our guidelines may face lower rankings, restricted visibility, or removal from the platform altogether.

Clutch’s commitment to transparency is ongoing. We’re constantly refining our systems to protect the integrity of reviews and support you in finding the right agency.

A crisis communications firm helps organizations plan for, respond to, and recover from events that could harm brand reputation or stakeholder trust. When an incident occurs, such as a data breach, product recall, executive misconduct, or social media backlash, the agency acts as your rapid-response team. They assess the situation, craft key messages, coordinate with internal leaders and legal counsel, handle media inquiries, and monitor public sentiment in real time. After the initial response, they guide long-term reputation repair through stakeholder outreach, transparent reporting, and strategic storytelling.

A crisis communication agency typically offers:

  • Risk audits and crisis-readiness playbooks
  • 24/7 on-call media relations and spokesperson training
  • Message development and press statement drafting
  • Social listening and sentiment analysis
  • Stakeholder and influencer outreach
  • Internal comms coordination (employees, partners, investors)
  • Post-crisis reputation rebuilding and thought-leadership campaigns
  • Simulation workshops to test plans before an incident arises

Budgets vary widely based on risk profile and response time. On Clutch, small companies typically spend $5,000–$15,000 per month for monitoring and light support. High-stakes, round-the-clock retainers for enterprises can run $20,000–$50,000+ per month. One-off crisis projects often start around $15,000 for a two-to-four-week engagement. Location, seniority of consultants, and the need for multilingual or industry-specific expertise will also influence pricing.

Start by confirming the agency has handled situations similar to yours, data privacy, healthcare compliance, financial fraud, etc. Review case studies and ask for measurable outcomes (e.g., time to neutral coverage, share-of-voice regained). Ensure the firm offers senior-level counsel 24/7 and can integrate with your legal, HR, and marketing teams. Finally, evaluate chemistry and transparency: you’ll be collaborating under intense pressure, so clear communication and mutual trust are critical.

These are some red flags you should watch for when hiring a crisis communications company:

  • Guaranteed media “fixes” or promises to erase online content
  • Vague pricing or undisclosed subcontractors
  • Lack of a written crisis plan or refusal to run simulations
  • Limited access to senior strategists once the contract is signed
  • No verifiable case studies or client references in your sector

Utilize these sample questions to help your hiring process:

  • Have you managed crises similar to ours? What were the outcomes?
  • Who will be on our account, and what is their availability?
  • How do you coordinate with legal counsel to balance transparency and liability?
  • What monitoring tools and metrics do you use to track sentiment and ROI?
  • How will you train our executives and staff for media interactions?
  • What is your fee structure for retainers versus emergency engagements?

Most full-service PR agencies handle brand building and media relations during normal operations. Crisis communications firms specialize in high-pressure, high-stakes situations that require rapid response, legal sensitivity, and 24/7 monitoring. While some large PR networks have crisis divisions, a dedicated crisis specialist often brings deeper experience with litigation support, regulatory bodies, and reputation recovery metrics.

These are some of the examples of how a crisis communications firm measures ROI:

  • Reduction in negative media coverage over time
  • Improvements in sentiment score across social platforms
  • Stabilization of stock price or donor contributions
  • Surveyed stakeholder trust post-incident
  • Speed of returning to normal share-of-voice levels compared with competitors

Choosing KPIs upfront ensures both you and the agency stay aligned on outcomes beyond simple press hits.
