With The Key as your partner, we can weather this storm together.
The current macroeconomic environment puts pressure on every single business decision. Coupled with SVB’s collapse and uncertainty within banking partners and the fundraising landscape, this storm will reverberate for years. All eyes are on your channel strategy and the efficacy of every dollar spent.
We know how to do more with less, and this is our time to shine!
Successful business leaders need the right partners to navigate these waters with efficiency, grace, and empathy. A sharp, thoughtful communications strategy can help you break through and reach the right audiences at the right times – even more crucial in this environment. And we’ve been there before – our leadership team started their careers in the dot-com bust’s shadow and worked through the ‘08 crisis with some of the brands that defined the next chapter in tech. Let's change the world together.
ABOUT US
The Key has launched dozens of startups, built brands, and created multi-dimensional communications programs for a wide range of companies. Our mission is to tell a new story, including who’s featured as a leading character, and to do so, we empower people and companies to unlock their best potential through high-impact, low-bullshit communications.
At the heart of our programs is sharp strategy, story development, thoughtful media outreach, and real consultation. With a strong focus on early-stage companies, we also have rich experience in tech, consumer, nonprofit, and social impact work, along with PR strategy and support for several established companies.
As a women-owned and-run agency with diversity among our core values, we love working with our peers and fighting for more representation. And because we’re funded less on average, we help balance that out with preferred pricing for female founders.
