What are Celebrity & Influencer Relations?
Celebrity and influencer relations bolster your marketing efforts to generate mainstream awareness and put your brand in the spotlight.
This high-stakes function of publicity crafts celebrity partnerships and secures influencer endorsements. Behind every piece of co-branded content, viral brand collaboration, or celebrity product endorsement is a skilled celebrity or influencer relations specialist.
If you’re interested in using a celebrity spokesperson for your brand in the press or securing an influencer partnership to promote your company on social media—you need celebrity and influencer relations experts to help.
Why Do You Need Celebrity & Influencer Relations?
Credibility is contagious. A third-party endorsement from a respected spokesperson bolsters your reputation as an industry leader.
Partnering with a trusted influencer—especially someone your customers admire and respect—translates to real value in terms of brand reputation. Whether it’s a “shout-out” in the media from an A-lister celebrity or a niche social media influencer championing your company mission, these partnerships can unlock third-party credibility and build deeper brand trust and engagement.
If you want to become a household name, aligning yourself with celebrities and/or influencers is a strong place to start.

How Trust Factors In
“Trust Relations” is a term coined by President and Founder April White to describe a new approach to strategic communications. We focus on conveying clients’ authentic actions, value and goodwill.
To do this, we have a golden rule: As a brand, you must do what you say before you can say what you do. Trust relations is about earning the trust of your audience and stakeholders, based on who you are—not who you pretend to be. It’s how we make sure that your storytelling and storydoing are one and the same.
That trusting relationship is essential for any influencer or celebrity partnership. Does this influencer support your brand’s goals and mission? Is this celebrity respected amongst your target audiences? Will this person lend credibility to your business? Does the chemistry feel right?
Before we begin influencer relations for any client, we assess their brand to ensure it’s a perfect match.
