My first job in public relations involved pasting news clips (using a glass glue bottle and brush) at the age of 4. My grandparents owned Seymour F. Malkin Public Relations, a successful pr agency representing local businesses and national notables. Dorothy and Seymour opened the firm in 1950 and that was the beginning of a family passion for communicating! Growing up, we all thrived on participating in client events such as the “Dirty Rotten Sneaker Contest” held annually at the Bergen Mall in Hackensack, NJ.
Since launching Welfeld Public Relations in 2003, I have been blessed to work with some of the greatest talents in public relations. What began as a small consulting venture when I left The MWW Group as a vice president, turned into a career dream-come-true. Working with my colleagues, we create teams that care deeply about our clients, share a love for the profession of PR and are dedicated to making sure our clients do more, communicate more and see more PR as a result of working with us.
As of November 10th, we will be doing business as Seymour Public Relations in honor of my grandparent’s firm, in tribute to my grandfather who continues to inspire us and in celebration of the talented team members here who do not share my last name! It is about our clients and our pros -- Stephanie R., Leslie N., Liane W., Stan F., Stephanie M., Lisa A., Shira K, Heather W., Laura B. and Rebecca W … thank you for always going above and beyond, always dedicating more - and remaining committed to having a great time all the while!
Have a great weekend,
Ilya
