Dallas Creative, Public Relations Firms Announce Alliance
Simmons Design Associates and Jetstream Public Relations to jointly pursue strategic clients
DALLAS - December 7, 2005 - Simmons Design Associates, LLC, and Jetstream Public Relations, Inc., today announced an alliance through which they will jointly pursue new-business opportunities while providing a complete suite of creative, marketing and PR services to current clients.
Simmons Design Associates was formed in 1998 to provide branding, communications and multi-media services for regional and national clients. Jetstream Public Relations works primarily with healthcare and high-tech companies, using strategic media relations and marketing initiatives to help clients achieve their corporate, financial and operating objectives. The firm was founded as Trinity Public Relations in 2002, and recently changed its name to Jetstream Public Relations.
Simmons Design and Jetstream Public Relations have partnered on several projects, but recently, the firms' principals decided that a closer, more formal relationship would yield broader benefits for their firms and clients.
"At Simmons Design and Jetstream PR, we believe deeply that our duty to clients goes well past creating logos or writing news releases," said Armando Simmons, principal and creative director of Simmons Design Associates. "By fusing our creative skills to the client's business plan, we are able to deliver long-term value and meaningful results to our clients, who above all else, learn to rely on us for so much more than graphic design and PR."
For the firms' two principals, forming the alliance and bringing their teams closer together was a natural next step, according to Tony Katsulos, president and founder of Jetstream Public Relations, Inc.
"Armando and I would meet periodically to talk shop, and it became increasingly apparent that we approach business in exactly the same way - we spend our energy earning relationships and building reputations, not trying to turn a quick buck," Katsulos said. "We take our work very personally, and our teams bring a hard-driving, get-it-done attitude to everything they do. Whether we are developing a client's corporate identity or raising brand awareness, the heart of our work will always be helping clients drive their revenues."
The Dallas-based firms are currently developing business opportunities and expect that the alliance will quickly yield new clients.
