Communications Industry Veteran Trey Ditto Launches Ditto Public Affairs

BROOKLYN, N.Y., June 25, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Veteran communications and public affairs expert Trey Ditto today announced the launch of Ditto Public Affairs Inc., a boutique firm that specializes in media relations, social media and thought leadership campaigns. Headquartered in New York, Ditto Public Affairs holds a roster of health care, financial services, technology, entertainment, legal and public policy clients.

"Our approach to addressing our clients' communications needs, our expertise in a range of industries and our ability to generate results that drive increased business for our clients, is what sets Ditto Public Affairs apart from the competition," said CEO and founder Trey Ditto. "We excel at understanding the client's business goals, creating a comprehensive, manageable communications strategy to achieve those goals and then delivering the results they expect."

Who is Ditto Public Affairs?

After attending the United States Military Academy at West Point and Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Ditto began his career at The Associated Press. After years at the AP, he established himself in political communications, working in local and statewide politics in Texas and then Washington D.C. where he was the Communications Director for a U.S. Congressman and then Deputy Press Secretary at the U.S. Department of Education in the Bush Administration.  In 2007, Ditto returned to the private sector in New York City, working at large and boutique public relations firms, managing accounts with Fortune500 clients, former Cabinet-level officials, tech start-ups, celebrities and entrepreneurs.

"Over the years, companies were coming to me after a bad experience with another firm and were impressed that I actually delivered the results I had promised," Ditto said. "I realized that I could create a communications firm that separates itself from the competition by listening to the client's business goals, giving honest feedback about how public relations can help, creating a manageable, creative strategy and then executing it. And the proof is the number of clients I have retained over the years and who remain long-term accounts at Ditto Public Affairs."

Team Ditto: Every Client Gets a Full Team

The Ditto Public Affairs' staff is a team of communications professionals at every level, each with a different background and all with comprehensive communications experience. Every account is staffed with a full team that understands the client's industry, has a proven track record in delivering results and is available to the client anytime.

"Too many PR firms do the bait and switch. Companies get the senior executives in the beginning only to get a junior level account executive managing the account. At Ditto Public Affairs, clients get an entire team of entry-, mid- and senior-level public relations professionals that are always accessible and who work together," Ditto said. "We take pride in the fact that we have professional and personal relationships with our clients, and that's a direct result of delivering results, building the client's trust and talking to them regularly about their business."

Capabilities: Making Clients Relevant

From media relations to social media to creating national and local campaigns, Ditto Public Affairs offers a customized, comprehensive communications approach to clients.

Media Relations

Team Ditto has extensive contacts at top-tier national TV, radio, print and online publications that have resulted in features in The New York Times, guest hosting CNBC's Squawk Box, regular appearances on national radio programs like NPR, Hannity and Sirius's Andrew Wilkow and guest-features on Huffington Post.

Social Media

Team Ditto handles the social media for most of the firm's accounts, which includes creating the strategy and managing and building the client's social media pages. Ditto Public Affairs does not offer social media services because it is perceived as trendy or popular. The firm's unique approach to following and engaging people online leads to partnerships, interviews, new business opportunities and an increased online presence, to include Search Engine Optimization.  

Team Ditto also takes digital strategy to the next level for clients by managing webinars, drafting blog posts, conducting Twitter chats, creating YouTube videos and drafting and analyzing online surveys.

Thought Leadership Campaigns

Ditto Public Affairs specializes in local and national engagement to put clients on the map and make them relevant leaders in their industry. From speaking engagements to testifying in front of Congress and from strategic partnerships to engaging local industry leaders, Ditto Public Affairs handles the strategy and execution of each campaign with the purpose of making our clients true thought leaders.
