Dynamic. Creative. Thoughtful. Strategic. Fun. Smart. Experienced. Passionate.

These are just a few of the ways we describe our philosophy and team.

 

Pine Street PR is a boutique PR & Brand Marketing agency based in the San Francisco Bay Area specializing in programs for design and lifestyle clients. Founded by Amy Harper in 2018, we drive results for clients with strategic, thoughtful and original programs. We specialize in brand positioning, messaging development, media relations, editorial placements, influencer relations and partnerships, all with a focus on driving results that make a difference for our clients.

With both in-house and agency experience, we have developed a unique approach that combines the best of each structure - senior level PR and marketing expertise that can plug into internal teams and guide strategic thinking, all while bringing outside expertise, objectivity and contacts.

We believe in true partnership with clients and think of our team as an extension of our clients team. We go into each new client engagement with the big picture in mind, not just short term goals.

The name Pine Street PR is a nod to a long-held address in San Francisco, starting when Amy began her career as an entry-level PR manager for a furniture designer and manufacturer.
