Montclair-based boutique PR firm wins more awards than any other New Jersey agency, including ‘Best in Show’ for the second year in a row.
MONTCLAIR, N.J. – New Jersey-based public relations firm, Violet PR, is proud to announce that the agency won nine prestigious PR awards, including the event’s top recognition of ‘Best in Show’ for the second year in a row at the 2023 Public Relations of America New Jersey (PRSA-NJ) Pyramid Awards.
“It’s incredible recognition for an independently owned agency of just 13 full-time staff to beat out the largest firms in the state for the ‘Best in Show’ prize and the most awards total,” said April Mason, president and founder of Violet PR. “Whether it’s promoting electric vehicles, robotics, clean carbon or Pride, our team continues to execute some of the country’s most high-profile, impactful economic development public relations campaigns. I couldn’t be prouder!”
Violet PR was awarded “Best in Show” for maximizing Panasonic’s selection of Kansas City for a $4 billion electric vehicle battery plant. Violet PR landed 348 media placements in outlets including Forbes, Bloomberg, Wall Street Journal, Boston Globe, NBC, Tech Crunch, MarketWatch, Reuters, NASDAQ, Financial Times and others, resulting in over 21 million coverage views.
The campaign, titled “Panasonic Selects Kansas City for a $4B EV Facility” also won a Pyramid award in the “PR on a Shoestring Budget” category and an honorable mention in the “Media Relations” category.
Other awards included:
“Violet PR is a tremendous partner and we’re truly impressed by the extensive national media coverage the team garnered surrounding Panasonic’s announcement of the Kansas City region over other markets for its $4 billion investment,” said Jessica Palm, vice president of marketing and PR for the Kansas City Area Development Council. “For more than a decade, Violet PR has helped our team tell the KC region’s story to the world.”
The PRSA-NJ Pyramid Awards recognize the impactful work public relations and communications have on agencies and organizations across New Jersey. Entries are evaluated on research, planning, execution and demonstrated results and the use of budget and resources.
PRSA-NJ also recognized Violet PR’s intern, Benjiman Argen from Rutgers University’s School of Communication and Information, as its 2023 “Future PR Professional,” an award that honors an undergraduate student who demonstrates a sophisticated understanding of and commitment to the public relations profession.
