Motivation Behind Founding 25/8 PR Agency

The agency was established to bridge the gap between what founders perceive PR to be and its actual business impact. With extensive experience in tech PR and working with startups, the goal was to create a PR agency that supports startups in achieving their business objectives.

The main challenges included building an international team with exceptional talent and applying a tech-company approach to PR, focusing on metrics and analytics. Demonstrating PR effectiveness in quantifiable terms remains a significant challenge, addressed by aligning PR strategies with business outcomes.

The agency transitioned from focusing on Eastern Europe and CIS markets to a global reach, requiring a complete transformation in team structure and client acquisition strategies. This shift resulted in initial revenue challenges but ultimately led to substantial growth and the establishment of a strong international presence.

Success is measured by business metrics such as revenue, profit, client retention rate, and referrals. A retention rate above 80% is considered a strong indicator of quality and client satisfaction.

Success is achieved when the business operates independently of the founder, relying on robust structures, processes, and a competent team.
