Happy Holidays from Kite Hill PR!

Reflecting on a year of growth

 A note from our Founder and CEO, Tiffany Guarnaccia

Before we head into the new year, it’s important to take a pause and reflect on what we’ve accomplished. And wow, do we have a lot to celebrate! 2022 began with a mission to cement our stance on virtual work. We established and rolled out guideposts to strengthen our agency’s approach to collaborating and agile thinking in a digital environment – this is of utmost importance as we continued to grow our team across the country. We supported many clients across industries stay ahead of the curve (and won a few awards along the way).

Here are just a few of the highlights from this year:

  • After two years of virtual and hybrid meetings, we hosted a fully-in person summer retreat where we focused on our core value of passion.

  • Our team grew with new hires from Maryland, Nevada, New Jersey, Florida, and the UK.

  • Launched our first-ever “Tech for Good” program, and provided a three-month PR program for the inaugural winner, Included. Our second program is now underway and a winner will be selected by year’s end.

  • Recognized for a fourth time by the Observer in its annual Power PR list, celebrating Senior Account Executive Kerriann Becker as one of the industry’s Rising Stars, and received an honorable mention for our campaign with Dropp at Ragan Communications Media Relations Awards.

  • Humbly, I was the recipient of the She Runs It Working Mother of the Year award and Ragan’s Top Women in Communications Award. 

By the Numbers:

  • 22 new clients spanning media, advertising, green tech, ESG, enterprise, mobility, FinTech and HealthTech arenas.

  • Increased our work with major clients in the CTV and retail media spaces; the advertising industry’s 2 biggest growth areas.

  • Ideated, wrote and placed 46 bylines in outlets ranging from Fast Company and Newsweek to Adweek and Business Insider.

  • Developed and executed strategies around 10+ transactions with total valuations exceeding $1.5B in valuation.

  • Supported 10+ in-person events, including CES, SXSW, Cannes, Programmatic I/O, RE+, NewFronts/Upfronts, Advertising Week, Communications Week and the Clean Data Roadshow.

  • 8 New team members in 5 States and 2 Countries.
