Telling Impactful Stories Takes Teamwork

Golden Word is a PR and Communications agency based in Richmond, Virginia. We believe in teamwork: our clients’ teams and our team working together to create and tell stories that truly connect with people. And the better the stories, the stronger the connections we make between our clients’ brands and their target audiences.

We have a way that we work together with our clients that, well… really works. You can learn a little about our collaborative process, read a case study or two, or get a glimpse into our thinking by diving into a blog topic that relates to your business challenge.

We’ve been doing this successfully since 2016. And since that time our media and influencer relationships across North America have grown allowing us to garner national, regional and local coverage for the clients whose stories we’re honored to tell.

Weird Question

Would your customers tattoo their bodies with your brand?

When you speak with us, ask us how our PR campaign built on our client’s great idea. We had three generations of so many families lined-up to get permanent tattoos of the Duke’s brand on their bodies.
