Bread & Butter: Winning in Food, Drink & Travel
Bread & Butter, a hands-on digital media and public relations agency, specializes in the food, drink, and travel industries. Founded in 2007 by Meredith Vachon and Rachel Mays Ayotte, the agency sought to fill a gap in PR that was: the absence of new, authentic, and innovative approaches to marketing and communication.
Partnering with innovative businesses that inspire the agency to think big while playing small, the agency practices what they preach, ensuring the spirit of hospitality is an ingredient of whatever the agency bakes. The agency incorporates perspectives from waiters, chefs, bartenders, and front desk attendants to better understand any food, drink, or travel brand’s objectives from interacting with clients and media.
Having little differences between work and pleasure, the agency is never too busy to interact with its esteemed clients. That has enabled the PR firm to generate press that increases long-term brand awareness.
