Frank Public Relations Adds Worldwide to Name Reflecting Growing Global Healthcare and Technology Focus; Revamped Web Site Features Live Phone Consulting, Free e-Newsletter. Frank Public Relations Worldwide Offers ‘Second Opinion’ Service to Healthcare Executives with Frankly Speaking Live Consulting.

Frank Public Relations today announced a name change to Frank Public Relations Worldwide as it celebrates its five-year anniversary. The change reflects the growing global public relations clientele served by the Los Angeles-based healthcare public relations and marketing company headed by Peggy C. Frank, MBA, a 28-year veteran of healthcare public relations and marketing.

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) November 17, 2004

Explaining the name change, Frank says, “It is no secret that business today is truly a global experience. Our name change reflects our comprehensive understanding of the no borders thought-leadership of businesses today.”

Also new are changes to the web site www. frankpr. com, which include a free e-newsletter, and a one-of-a-kind program that enables business executives to arrange for a live phone consultation, billable by the hour using a credit card. Executives may arrange for a consult from 6 am to 11 pm EST.

Frank Public Relations Worldwide is working to change the traditional availability of public relations services for the start-up and small healthcare business owners.

Frank explains, “The traditional PR agency business model needs change. As PR professionals, we need to be more helpful to start-up and small companies who traditionally do not have a significant PR budget, yet truly need PR to advance their value-proposition and grow their company in this ultra-competitive marketplace. This is where the Frankly Speaking Live idea was born – to help start-up and small organizations get the consult and service they need, when they need it, and at a price they can afford.”

Says Frank, “Our long hours of availability are particularly helpful to those in crisis. We know that a crisis can hit at all hours of the day and waiting until the next morning or until the weekend is over to start dealing with a crisis can result in additional damage to the reputation and financial viability of an organization.”

In addition, adds Frank, “The medical community is very familiar with the second opinion choice that many patients pursue prior to electing a course of treatment. We have found that executives want this choice, too, sometimes seeking assurance that their in-house or agency PR counsel is navigating a solid course of action. Frank Public Relations Worldwide’s “second opinion” program offers executives the support and honest counsel they seek.”
