Experience counts. Yours and ours.

In 1987, I worked for an advertising and public relations agency in Seattle where Kenworth Truck Co. was a client.

The ad guys did terrific work promoting Kenworth’s reputation as a builder of top-quality commercial trucks. But to me, the most persuasive stories came from customers, drivers, dealers, and other partners.

So we talked to Kenworth about adding PR to their communications effort. They saw the benefit of instant senior-level experience and media access without having to add staff. I enjoyed the work so much that in 1991, when I started my own agency, I decided to focus on business-to-business communications for companies in commercial transportation. Kenworth became my first client, a relationship that continues today.

Now SiefkesPetit represents a stable of clients, and our mission is to help them establish credibility with journalists and reach decision-makers in trucking, logistics, construction, and other industrial markets.

We’re a small shop but we’re the most experienced and connected crew in the business. You won’t lose time or money while your PR agency learns a complex business with a language all its own.

And we’re focused on helping clients reach people with the authority to purchase their products, whether they run a big company or a solo operation.

If you have questions about how PR works, or what we offer that other agencies do not, please give me or Stephen Petit a call. We’re happy to help.
