Key services
#1. Crisis and reputation management
In today’s global and highly interconnected world, crises can easily spill over national borders, eroding a brand’s equity internationally. To manage and respond to multimarket risks, entities should be well-versed with potential communication and reputation risks therein.
Being a genuine Brazilian-based international PR agency, Sherlock Communications’ expertise enables brands to conduct comprehensive risk assessment audits, proactive digital and traditional media outreach, employee reassurance and engagement campaigns, and post-crisis analysis on a brand’s reputation.
#2. Strategic planning and consultancy
Guided by the principle that campaigns are as useful as the problems they solve for clients regardless of their creativity, Sherlock Communications’ team investigates each client’s challenges and unique circumstances in order to design a strategic plan.
Integrating a client’s business objectives, target audience, and the desired action from the target audience, the Brazilian-based agency determines where a brand and their offering lie within Brazil or Latin America’s competitive, cultural, and media landscape.
Once Sherlock Communications pros have ascertained the nature of a brand’s opportunity or challenge, the agency develops a full-proof plan to help a client achieve their objectives and KPIs.
#3. Social media
Today, social media is a key component in a brand’s online footprint. When used effectively, social media helps brands increase awareness, visibility, and reach. Sherlock Communications’ team recognizes that, while social media may be a useful stand-alone marketing and communication tool, it is more effective when used as part of an integrated PR marketing tool.
That said, Sherlock Communications deploys social media as part of an integrated PR campaign. Working collaboratively with clients, the PR pros develop highly-effective marketing and communication strategies that increase a brand’s follower base, increase engagement, and deliver qualified leads within a short period.
