I am Heidi! The Creator and personality behind the HWILSONPR brand. I aim to educate audiences how to use public relations in business, along with how to communicate effectively, target audiences, plan strategically, and use media for storytelling. Moreover, I love being apart of the birth of a new idea, event, and business venture.
Some FUN FACTS:

HWILSONPR is a public relations & brand consulting practice that was founded in 2008. Through the HWILSONPR brand, we teach entrepreneurs how to navigate public relations in their business, and collaborate with agencies, corporations, and organizations on special projects as a contractor.
Q: How did HWILSONR Get Started?
HWILSONPR was founded in 2008 when Heidi graduated with a master's degree in strategic public relations. Due to the state of the economy, it was hard to land a full-time position in public relations. After speaking with a good friend, he encouraged me to start freelancing. He was also my first client. I started small completing projects for family and friends and then started to build clientele through networking and placing ads. I eventually secured a full-time position, but HWILSONR stayed and has grown alongside me in my career. There is always a new idea, event, campaign or project that someone needs assistance with or guidance to get to the finish line.
