Online, February 23, 2011 (Newswire.com) - K/F Communications, Inc. (www.kfcomm.com), a respected, strategic technology public relations agency, today announced that it has been selected as the agency of record for:
- SimpleGeo: providers of the infrastructure that makes developing location features in applications easier;
- Alacritech: the leading provider of Network Attached Storage (NAS) acceleration appliances;
- Talari Networks, pioneers of a WAN Virtualization solution that enables enterprises to drastically reduce network connectivity expenses, and;
- Edgewater Networks, developers of products that ensure the secure and reliable delivery of IP based voice and video for service providers and enterprises.
"We chose K/F because we were impressed with the results they've been able to consistently acquire for technology companies," said Doug Rainbolt, V.P. Marketing, Alacritech. "We needed a top caliber PR agency that would not only effectively rebrand and launch the company, but drive sales. Within the short period of time that we've worked together, we've developed a strong positioning platform and successfully re-launched the company. I directly attribute our success to working with a K/F partner day in and day out. Everything we produced together-from branding to execution-was of the highest quality, and even more important-it moved the needle on the acquisition of customers."
K/F's approach, a combination of compelling messaging, a laser focus on client business and marketing goals, as well as creative and aggressive program execution, have helped the agency deliver industry-best results over the last ten years. K/F has worked with leaders in the enterprise technology, consumer technology and social media spaces, including: Flock (recently acquired by Zynga) the leading social media web browser; TwitVid, the leader in Twitter video, Digg (www.digg.com) a website for sharing and discovering content from anywhere on the web; Oracle, the world's most complete, open, and integrated business software and hardware systems company; networking leader Cisco Systems, WAN optimization pioneer Peribit Networks, and Composite Software (www.compositesw.com) the leading provider of data virtualization solutions. K/F expertise spans the consumer, business-to-business, service and environmental markets and K/F's social media expertise is based on driving social PR from its infancy over eight years ago.
The philosophy of Julie Karbo and David Fonkalsrud is simple - companies that have market-leading products or services, but lack a strategic and consistent communications strategy, can be out-positioned by aggressive competitors who win the perception and mindshare race. In order to ensure the best results, Karbo and Fonkalsrud are involved in the day-to-day strategic planning, as well as the tactical implementation of K/F Communications' clients' public relations programs.
Along with obtaining top tier media coverage for all their clients, K/F Communications was nationally ranked in O'Dwyer's listing of the top independent public relations agencies in 2009 and 2010. In 2009, K/F was named one of the year's top Silicon Valley PR agencies by the Silicon Valley/San Jose Business Journal and won the 2009 Hermes Creative Award for their work with Digg.com and again in 2010 for their work on behalf of TwitVid.com.
