5W Public Relations Named Agency of Record for Award Winning Digital Marketing Agency, Rokkan

NEW YORK, July 26, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- 5W Public Relations, one of the 25 largest independent Public Relations agencies in the U.S., today announced its selection as the agency of record for Rokkan, a full service interactive advertising agency recognized for successfully building businesses through digital solutions.

Since its launch in 2000, Rokkan's unique and fearless vision has landed the agency at the helm of digital ad campaigns and online business solutions for some of the most distinguished brands in the world. The agency's ability to re-envision and enhance the ways customers experience brands has earned them over 90 awards and recognitions within the industry, and the prestige of having industry leading clients such as Virgin America, Chipotle, Time Warner, Stoli Vodka, Nintendo, EA Games, Google and more, on their roster.

Founded in 2000, Rokkan has grown today to employ 50 employees driving multi-million dollar campaigns for its elite clients inferring an agency triple the size.  Although Rokkan's proven expertise spans a number of vertical industries, they have emerged as the undisputed leader in gaming, travel and hospitality.

As the primary strategy goal, 5W Public Relations will execute a comprehensive public relations program designed to increase awareness of the company's brand and its leadership position in the digital marketing and advertising industry.

"Rokkan is at the forefront of their industry with great creativity, the ability to take a unique vision and channel it into a perfect conversation with their desired consumers.  We are delighted to have been selected as the company's PR agency of record and are confident that our experience in the marketing / advertising space will prove to be a valuable compliment," said Ronn Torossian, CEO and President of 5W Public Relations. 

John Noe, CEO of Rokkan, added "PR has always been a tricky animal for us to tame. We've spent the greater part of our career focused on our clients' work and less about our own PR gain or image. With the most recent wins we've picked up in 2010 and 2011, we think it's about time we evolve our approach to PR and grow our presence. We met with a number of PR agencies and found Ronn Torossian and his team at 5WPR to be highly entrepreneurial, passionate, and methodical. 5WPR and Rokkan share common ground in our dedication to quality and results, so we couldn't be more excited to work with them."
