Our Services

Pesch amplifies your voice and arms you with expert communications capabilities. Our work combines message development, media relations, content creation, and digital strategy to help you say the right things, at the right time, and to the right audience.

Our unique experience allows us to also provide boutique strategic services in support of building your brand or protecting your reputation, including coalition building, campaign-style research, crisis mitigation, and special event management.

Our presence in Washington, D.C. facilitates strong relationships with Congressional offices, executive agencies and national advocacy organizations, which we actively leverage on behalf of our clients.

  • Message Development

    Effective messaging is the most critical component of successful communications. A well-crafted message cuts through the noise, shapes perceptions, and drives action—whether you're elevating a personal brand, navigating a crisis, or launching a national campaign. At Pesch, we understand that messaging isn't just about words; it's about aligning your story with your audience's values, needs, and expectations to deliver measurable impact.

  • Media Relations

    Elite media can provide a tremendous platform validating messaging and anchoring a multi-faceted communications program. Our team has placed editorials and secured positive coverage at major outlets including The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, USA TODAY, The Hill, and many more.

    We've also landed high-profile media appearances on national networks including ABC News, FOX Business, EWTN, and NPR, among others.

    Media Relations
  • Digital Strategy

    Our team has launched digital campaigns for corporations and political "war rooms" across the country and in multiple overseas markets.

    Through the savvy use of targeted digital content, we have supported multi-million dollar marketing programs for global brands, reshaped national media coverage, and helped pass or kill high-profile legislation in several states.

Our Products

While we often build custom solutions for our clients, we also offer service packages designed to quickly meet some of the most common communications challenges. Each of these packages can be completed in a matter of weeks and put into action through a full handoff or ongoing implementation support.

Cornerstone

Cornerstone is Pesch’s thought leadership offering: a program for executives integrating a mix of paid, earned, shared, and owned media to advance nonprofit and advocacy organizations.

Cause-based and advocacy organizations can become more humanized and better able to engage their audiences with an effective executive thought leadership program. We’re excited to help.

Compass

Compass is a crisis management planning process, which covers several key areas of preemptive crisis mitigation:

  • Monitoring — know how to track issues before they spiral
  • The Digital Crisis Team — who’s on your team, when and how are they activated, and what roles they accomplish
  • Issue Classification — How do you score issues vs crises?
  • Pre-Built Responses — defensive URL buying, reskinnable graphics, pre-approved copy, If/Then statements, community management guidelines, etc
  • First Hour/First Day Plan — What immediate steps are taken to fight a crisis online? What are the follow-on steps?
