by | Jan 14, 2021

Red Fan Communications, a full-service B2B communications agency, announced that it expanded its B2B client portfolio in 2020 in core business verticals and made significant additions to its staff entering the new year.

As the COVID-19 pandemic forced brands throughout the U.S. to rethink their agency relationships, Red Fan experienced growth and attracted a host of new clients across its core verticals, including supply chain, sustainable technology, medical cannabis, insurance and financial technology, among others. The agency saw more energy behind corporate storytelling and thought leadership, a renewed focus on internal and employee communications and an acceleration of funding and investment announcements. As events moved online, the public relations discipline was able to support the C-suite, marketing, sales and operations with more strategic communications.

  • The Mike & Sherry Project, a local nonprofit that provides affordable mental health services and support to Austin’s renowned service industry workers.

“Like nearly every other business in 2020, Red Fan was not immune to change, but our successful application of critical corporate communications to client engagements reinforces the strategic value we deliver for our partners,” said Kathleen Lucente, founder and president of Red Fan. “That value-add was clearer than ever in 2020 as successful, high-growth B2B brands partnered with us to find new ways to engage with customers and employees, redefine marketing and business strategies, and compete and win in their respective markets.”

Red Fan also hired four new staff members in 2020 to support its growth and evolving client needs. Carla Click, marketing and operations manager, Iris Bilich, content marketing coordinator, and account executives Alex Bacon and Reagan Costa add years of collective experience in graphic design, media relations, B2B communications and tech vertical expertise to the Red Fan team.
