20-20 Public Relations

PRagmatic – PRoductive – PRincipled – PRogressive – PRoactive – PRoportional

Wan Long is a Chinese billionaire businessman, the chairman and CEO of WH Group, the world’s largest pork company. He once explained his entire business thus: “What I do is kill pigs and sell meat.”

Simple messaging is what we do.

When you hire 2020PR, we spend time getting to know your brand, stakeholders, advocates, users, fans and critics. Sometimes, that insight will be supported by your own research which  supports our newly acquired knowledge. Once we have grasped just how unique your product or services are, and come to understand your principles, values and company culture, we will advise you on what the best Message is and how we’re going to deliver it strategically.

We try hard not to use jargon and acronyms – because our philosophy is simple. Your company’s message is all.

Perhaps that’s the reason why our Clients stay with us almost three times longer than the national average – because they are reassured that we always give them the best advice possible, based on our experience, common sense and uncomplicated approach to providing you with a measurable ROI and better brand recognition.

Curiosity about life in all of its aspects, I think, is still the secret of great creative people – Leo Burnett

At 2020, our entire focus is on the creation of intelligent, effective, and captivating work that informs and is remembered.

We aspire to ensure that our ideas are so good that every message on every platform has a lasting, positive impact on your brand’s DNA, your reputation, your stakeholders’ perceptions and, of course, your bottom line.

And always, we believe less is more because, at 2020, effective communications are neither difficult nor complex.

The problem is that we attempt to solve the simplest questions cleverly, thereby rendering them unusually complex. One should seek the simple solution. Anton Chekov

… work to make your voice heard by every one of your stakeholders. We will work to make your reputation grow. We will work to create advocates for you and your brand and we will be relentless in ensuring that whatever you do, you are seen to be doing it as honestly, ethically and sustainably as you can. With 2020PR we will see that your brand DNA is safe.

Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn’t really do it, the just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after a while. – Steve Jobs

  Red Rum: 40th Anniversary Bronze Limited Edition

  We were asked by Philip Blacker to promote a 40th Anniversary Bronze Limited Edition of his iconic Red Rum statue. Probably Britain’s greatest Equestrian Sculptor, Philip’s work adorns dozens of racecourses, studs and equestrian centres around the world. His first public life-size work of Red Rum is possibly one of the most well know equestrian statues in the UK, due to Philip’s capture of the essence of this extraordinary Grand National hero.
