Traditionally, PR used to be a game where the big agencies had the edge. They walked into boardrooms with research teams, extensive creative studios and proprietary tools

Smaller and mid-sized agencies? They had to hustle harder. They won with sharp talent, agility, and a knack for doing more with less.

But Now? The Game’s Changing

Thanks to generative AI, the playing field is finally leveling out. This isn’t just another tech buzzword. AI has become the ultimate teammate for mid-sized PR firms.

Using AI can be like having a researcher, content creator, strategist and designer—working for you, 24/7.

Need to win a new client? AI can help with:

  • Digging up trends
  • Creating or improving  visuals
  • Testing messages and scenarios without a full-blown focus group

No, AI Won’t Replace What Makes Us Human

Let’s be clear—AI can’t replace: Emotional intelligence, creative instincts or strategic thinking, but it amplifies all of that. It takes what PR pros already do well and makes it faster, smarter, and more scalable.

This Is a Big Deal for Mid-Sized Agencies

With AI in your corner, you can offer clients:

  • Big-agency quality
  • Boutique-agency attention
  • All without the bloated overhead
