I launched Jim DeLorenzo Public Relations in July, 1999 and since then, my company has helped hundreds of clients increase their success. My strategic public relations consulting services create relevance for your message and help put your brand at the "front of mind" for your prospective customers.

I "hung out my single" in 1999 fresh from my tenure as the Director of Public Relations for US Interactive, Inc., based primarily in New York, NY and King of Prussia, PA.  During this 27-month period with this pioneering Internet advertising, design and strategic consulting firm with a client list drawn from the Fortune 500, the company grew from 35 employees in two cities, to over 250 employees in five cities, and completed a successful initial public offering in the summer of 1999.  My activities included the creation of a number of highly-successful campaigns designed to introduce US Interactive to a world that was still wary of the Internet, especially in business, through press releases, earned media coverage, marketing collateral tools, sales materials and special events.
