“Laskin Media dropped everything and came to us during the middle of a significant Public Relations crisis. They helped us get our feet back on the ground. Without their excellent assistance, we could have had a great deal more difficulty.”
Laskin Media has been helping to put out fires for a long time. A crisis can strike at any moment. It can be deliberate or accidental, personal or professional. It can cause havoc and ruin reputations. It can be emotionally stressful and unsettling. But with the right guidance and steadfast assurance, most crises can be weathered with skill and determination.
Here are a few of the unexpected situations Laskin Media has successfully handled.
We have counseled a multi-million dollar company facing a major sexual harassment claim. We listened to our client’s story, helped form a reasonable response to allegations and coached their spokespeople to respond to reporters' questions calmly and as openly as possible. The company’s reputation remained intact and nearly the entire workforce stood solidly behind their employer.
We helped a Golden Globe winning actor to stop avoiding the media and to, instead, respond with dignity and confidence when questioned about his family’s unorthodox past. His career has taken off.
We coached a first-time author how to talk about the merits of her book—while, at the same time, deflecting invasive personal questions about her famous family. The book was a best seller.
No matter what the crisis, our goal is to be a calm and steady force for our clients. Sometimes there are legal hurdles to climb. Sometimes a reputation is at stake. Occasionally, the very best advice is not to talk at all in the heat of the moment—but to let the dust settle and then speak out. At other times, a well-prepared, timely and appropriate response is the best strategy.
Laskin Media’s experience and understanding will guide you wisely and triumphantly through difficult and sensitive situations.
