PR & Communications

overview + case studies
Made by Example

Earned media is harder to get and more valuable when you get it. It means a journalist chose your story, an editor gave it space, an audience sought it out. We don't buy that — we build it. Example's PR and communications work starts from a genuine story worth telling, then puts it in front of the people most likely to care and most likely to act. That's how you build a reputation that compounds.

The story has to be true first.

Good PR doesn't start with apress release. It starts with something genuinely worth saying, a perspective,a proof point, a moment in culture that your brand is credibly part of. We workwith clients to find that thing, then build the communications strategy aroundit.


Media relationships, not media lists.

We have genuine relationshipswith the journalists, editors, and publications that matter, across food,travel, lifestyle, luxury, and culture. In Australia, across Asia Pacific, andin the Middle East. That means stories land in the right places, not just anyplace.


Reputation built over time.

A single press hit is a moment.A communications strategy is a body of work. We think in programmes, not placements, building the kind of sustained presence that makes your brand thego-to reference in its category.
