“Accolades Public Relations was one of the first communications firms in Austin to embrace social media strategies along with traditional PR. When I read of their expertise, I knew they would understand how to integrate our Facebook, blog, Twitter and LinkedIn sites for an effective social media presence. Not only did AccoladesPR deliver the publicity results they promised, the education they provided on social media was invaluable. It has changed the way that we do business online.”
