The worldwide collaborative network of PR firms, Public Relations Boutiques International™ (PRBI), has added four new member firms, growing its network to 31 agencies in 11 countries.
“During the downturn, many large clients turned to boutique agencies because of their cost-effective approach, the availability of experienced, senior practitioners, and the ability of smaller firms to quickly and effectively adapt to changing conditions.”
The new member agencies are:
– DoubleDimond PR (Houston, TX) – DoubleDimond serves businesses and nonprofit organizations in the Houston metropolitan and Texas Gulf Coast areas with strategic planning, media relations (B2B, consumer, social), media and presentation training, and marketing materials.

– RD Communications (Dublin, Ireland) – RD Communications is Ireland’s, leading boutique PR consultancy with unrivalled expertise in health, beauty and retail.
“As the global economy slowly improves, the health of boutique agencies is a continuing theme,” said PRBI president Bill Cowen, CEO of Metrospective Communications, Philadelphia, Pa. “During the downturn, many large clients turned to boutique agencies because of their cost-effective approach, the availability of experienced, senior practitioners, and the ability of smaller firms to quickly and effectively adapt to changing conditions.”
“With the economy on the mend,” Cowen added, “we see that these clients want to continue their boutique agency relationships. PRBI’s growth through the addition of new member firms provides our great clients with added geographic capabilities and additional senior-level expertise to help them continue to see strong results from public relations.”
