Some kind words
“Jessy and the team at LaRue go above and beyond the normal expectations of a PR agency. In a challenging editorial climate in both the digital and offline space, where editors are inundated with cookie cutter requests and pitches, LaRue takes the time to collaboratively work with our team. They work through brand stories with us, and craft unique angles for our products, allowing us to secure the best placements with the best publications to further fuel our brand growth. Their scrappy, work-their-ass-off attitude pays off in spades. We heart them.”
