fortyseven communications

We’re fortyseven. Maybe you’ve heard of us, but we tend to be low key, preferring to let clients take the spotlight. We are a team of communications professionals in Los Angeles, New York and San Francisco. As a full service PR agency, we’re focused on helping clients tell stories in uniquely personal ways. Our clients range from the biggest names, to the emerging, to the quirky with a great story. From brand positioning and strategy, to media and influencer campaigns, corporate and crisis communications, to thought leadership programs, social and digital content programs to IRL events, we become an integrated part of our client’s mission. Our experience and passion resides at the crossroads of entertainment and technology, which has led us to become a recognized leader in the video games space. Our experience includes product launches, online services, streaming media, hardware, consumer electronics, emerging talent on digital platforms, conferences and much more. We are a senior-led company, not a place where you meet the VPs once and then never see them again. From founder to interns, every member is involved directly and daily in each account. This approach not only helps us impart hard-earned smarts and creative thinking, but also makes sure that clients are getting the service they need for projects to succeed. We balance polish and professionalism with creativity and experimentation, handcrafting campaigns to match unique goals. It’s why our team, as well as clients, measure their time with fortyseven in years, not months. Why are we called fortyseven? It’s a really interesting story, so let’s talk so that we can tell you...
