Silverbee creates communications plans and original content to turn up the volume on a new idea and keep established programs and companies fresh and relevant.
Our clients include nonprofits, foundations, public policy groups, startups and corporations engaged in socially responsible programs. We love helping them succeed by bringing their mission to wider audiences.
I founded Silverbee after a decade working on media relations, branding and talent management with public radio programs, arts institutions and hundreds of feature and documentary film projects. I’ve always been drawn to organizations and projects whose purpose is to serve society, bring communities closer and enrich culture.
Wherefore Silverbee? Someone once asked, ‘if you were an animal, what would you be?’ That’s easy: a honeybee.* I like to be busy. I’m a DIY person driven to make things. I like to work with other focused, hardworking and creative bees. As for the ‘silver’, I just like it, okay?
Silverbee team members are smart, experienced, and dedicated to doing it right, while doing the right thing. We have grown from a media relations and branding consultancy to a well-rounded team with a flexible suite of skills centered on high-quality writing, logical, jargon-free messaging and compelling visuals. These basics are at the core of communications that work, no matter how fast technology and social media change.
Silverbee’s services include strategic communications planning and specific consulting and content development such as story writing and media relations, social media, websites, marketing and branding, research and graphic design for:
-
- nonprofits and foundations
- causes and advocacy
- global health
- education
