Howard R. Miller Communications, Inc. is an award winning, dynamic, full-spectrum communications agency, offering excellence and tangible results in public relations, marketing, advertisng, special events and promotions, website design, plus non-profit fund-raising and development. Howard R. Miller Communications, Inc. began as a bilingual, Hispanic and English public relations agency, and continued to excel in all facets of this art. Public relations can enhance external and internal image, create wide positive recognition, assist in successful introduction of a product or service, create or mend community relations, increase production and sales, improve morale and pride, and get business relationships off to a good start or help repair them and more. Tools in the public relations arsenal encompass the areas of research, media relations and placements, crisis communications, corporate image, community relations, cause-related marketing and internal or stockholder relations. While it would be ill-advised to replace all advertising with public relations activities, often the amount of mney spent on a public relations media effort is far less than the amount a client would have spent had been paying advertising rates for media placements. Effective public relations as a strategic component in an integrated communications plan extends significantly the reach and impact of a client’s media budget.
