About
WHO WE ARE
Rally Point Media Strategies is a boutique public relations firm founded by former journalists who have worked at CNBC, Fox News, MSNBC, Bloomberg, and the Wall Street Journal.
Headquartered in New York City, we work with clients to create compelling content and messaging while developing targeted media relationships.
Our reputation is built on national and international campaigns for clients in industries that include financial services, technology, law, and real estate – in both for-profit and nonprofit organizations.
Why Rally Point
HOW WE WORK
Our client relationships are close. Starting with an up-front discovery session to understand goals and expectations, we maintain a high level of interaction through campaign design and execution.
Rally Point clients get a seasoned team of PR professionals and former journalists throughout every engagement. That experience and perspective is the foundation for our approach.
Our results speak for themselves. Check out our Newsfeed for recent placements.
