Akrete

Evanston, Illinois, United States

Public relations and content marketing for real estate, financial and professional services firms

Akrete works within B2B sectors that reward technical fluency, focusing on real estate, financial services and professional services clients who need writers comfortable with complex, regulated subject matter. Commercial and multifamily real estate leaders make up part of the client base, alongside banking and financial services organizations that require accurate, nuanced coverage of their business. O'Dwyer's has ranked the firm #4 among PR firms for real estate development and investment.

The firm handles media relations, press releases, corporate communications and thought-leadership PR alongside content work spanning newsletters, marketing collateral, case studies, whitepapers and social campaigns. A team of more than 20 specialized public relations, content and marketing professionals carries out the work, with staff averaging 20 years of industry experience. A low-overhead hybrid model lets the firm staff engagements with senior talent at competitive rates rather than layering in junior support.

Akrete operates as a certified women-owned business and has taken on pro-bono and in-kind communications programs for other organizations alongside its client work. The combination of sector depth in real estate and financial services, a senior-heavy staffing model, and a content list that runs from press releases to newsletters positions the firm for B2B companies whose communications needs go beyond generic brand messaging into technical, industry-specific storytelling.
