Services

The logistics of thought leadership, refined over a decade, and trusted by traditional and digital media organizations across North America.

Monthly or quarterly plan subscribers meet regularly with consultants and media producers to refine the curation, creation and promotion of our Thinkbait content.

 

Thinkbait Content

Research

Taking some time to learn about the subject, brand and industry makes our Thinkbait all the more useful, and cuts down on editing time.

Writing

Enlightening, useful content by skilled writers. We help brands cut through the clutter with messaging that resonates and engages.

Social Media

Less is more. We help media personalities and people-focused brands harness the educational power of social networks.

No time to write? We’ve heard that before! With remarkable efficiency, our producers will keep your blog, news page, newsletter or website copy fresh, relevant, accurate and — most importantly — true to your voice. We call it Thinkbait.

  • Newsletters
  • Whitepapers

Our Thinkbait philosophy applied to social networking: Quality over quantity. Every morning, we carefully curate organic content and write informative, enlightening posts on behalf of engaging brands. Every social network is different and should be used differently!

  • Strategy and community management
  • Social strategy and launch
  • Social marketing campaigns

It’s easier than ever to broadcast to a wide audience within seconds via streaming services like YouTube. Caution is in order! Live broadcasts require careful planning.

Consulting

Strategy

Intensive research, interviews and brainstorming to lay the foundation for your communications infrastructure.

Coaching

One-on-one or group sessions with media shepherds to give spokespeople the tools to represent your brand with confidence.

Conversation

True engagement requires an openness to diverging ideas and the confidence to promote one’s own ideas.

A variety of our consulting services delivered weekly or monthly, making us an on-call PR ‘situation room’ for clients maintaining a media presence. Consultants work with leaders or their marketing teams, on-site (Montreal/Toronto) or remotely, providing media relations coordination, analysis, content marketing consulting, crisis management and spokesperson performance coaching to further a brand’s communications plan.

  • Evaluation reports with talking points
  • Social media platform coaching (individual sessions or Thinkbait team media coaching)

Don’t panic! Brands are under intense scrutiny, more than ever before. On occasion, threats must be managed swiftly and effectively. Our consultants are on-call in the event of emergencies, though we always aim to avoid crises with diligent strategic planning.

  • Radio/TV performance coaching (individual or group sessions)

For a broader, more policy-oriented communications strategy, our consultants will work with motivated clients to advocate publicly for change; with web content, media strategy and community-building initiatives like petitions or social action, adding a public affairs dimension to a communications plan brings depth and credibility to a project.

  • Advocacy, stakeholder management and community affairs
  • Grant writing and management
  • Partnerships and sponsorship
  • Information sessions

You’re about to begin making your own media but the project needs a name, and some sleek visuals. Our consultants will help streamline the creative brainstorming process, thoroughly research the competition and ensure the brand fits your vision and organizational priorities.
