Rod and team are just the pros at this. Total control over their craft; smart, friendly and a joy to work with – I threw them a few curveballs along the way and they didn't bat an eyelid. Guided me to always think about the customer as the center of everything. The key is their journalistic backgrounds. They know what reporters want to hear and how to win stories. HIGHLY recommended.

The skills and professionalism of the Kimball Hughes team cannot be overstated. They worked with our small, local nonprofit, Angel Flight East, to gain exposure of our service, free air transportation for children and adults who need medical treatment far from home. Through Kimball Hughes PR efforts, Angel Flight East was featured in The Philadelphia Business Journal, Plane & Pilot magazine, SocialWork Today magazine and the The Philadelphia Medicine magazine - among other outlets. Their services included media outreach, writing and distributing press releases, pitching stories to reporters, wrote

I would highly recommend Kimball Hughes. In a prior job, I had the opportunity to work with Rod and his team for nearly five years. This agency is very professional, talented and flexible with meeting client needs. In my experience working with their team, they provided very attentive service and took a personalized, hands-on approach in which they felt like a true partner. Further, they delivered superior work in a very timely manner. Thanks to Rod and his team for their great work.

The Kimball Public Relations team is responsive and quick to react in any situation. I have hired Kimball and Rod Hughes to run our public relations for a couple of companies over the years. Their team has successfully managed all aspects of PR from coaching our executives on the proper handling of PR requests, to quick responses to inquiries and everything in-between. I would not hesitate to hire them again.

The Insurance Industry Charitable Foundation (IICF) has worked with the dynamic and dedicated team at Kimball Hughes Public Relations for almost three years very productive years so far, and I am happy to relate my positive experience working with this firm. In early 2017 we hired Kimball Hughes PR to help promote our biennial Women in Insurance Global Conference, a crucial component of the largest diversity initiative in the insurance industry, typically welcoming an international audience of approximately 650 attendees.
