Media Relations /
Classical Press Relations
A successful media relations strategy is based on a precise knowledge of the relevant media landscape and opti- mum contacts. F&H offers its clients the full range of classical press rela- tions services together with excellent industry and media contacts – on an international level too.
Social and Digital Media
The typical gap between sender and recipient in communications is already outdated. Social and digital media democratise knowledge and information and boost the dialogue through social interaction on the internet. The F&H Digital Beat unit acts as a think tank and supports all digital media projects on an interdisciplinary level as a mobile task force.
Corporate Communications 
Corporate communications serves to create a uniform appearance for a company to both its interior and the outside world. Targeted corporate communications increase appeal and identity for staff and stakeholders.
Corporate Branding /
Corporate Publishing
Defining, honing and communicating brand profiles are the aims of corporate branding and corporate publishing. These include, for example, corporate publications and staff newsletters.
Internal Communications /
Change Management
Change processes within the company must be supported with communica- tion – both internally and externally. Internal communications and change management are important if change is to be explained and new prospects highlighted. F&H accompanies these change processes in its role as con- sultant and / or coach.
Crisis & Issues Management
Every company should be equipped in terms of communication for when disaster strikes. Issues management accompanies firms in the preparation for a crisis, while crisis PR success- fully guides them through the acute phase. F&H has many years’ experience in the management and support of crises in the fields of food, tourism, healthcare, IT, automotive and industry.
Corporate Social Responsibility / 
Corporate Reputation
Companies are assuming more and more societal responsibility. Subjects such as neighbourly commitment, environmental protection and job security are what determine a brand and decide on the trust and loyalty of its consumers. F&H has comprehensive expertise in providing advice to com- panies in the field of CSR and corpo- rate reputation. This includes internal and external communication, active agenda setting and contact with the media, NGOs and other stakeholders.
Financial Communications /
Investor Relations
Nowadays, analysts and institutional investors are exerting significantly more influence on the corporate strate- gy than ever before. The CEO and CFO are at the forefront of this and require support that resonates with the public. F&H’s range of services stretches from corporate positioning right through to the design of annual reports.
Sponsoring
With sponsoring, the product or brand becomes part of the editorial environ- ment, or is used as part of an event. Crucial here is the credible staging of the product or brand, together with its integration into the overall communi- cation strategy.
Public Affairs / Lobbying 
Political and societal decisions influ- ence the framework in which compan- ies operate. Public Affairs plays a key role in controlling processes in line with the company’s best interests. We operate in this field of activity on behalf of our clients in conjunction with our partner agency in Brussels.
International PR
Culture shapes the communication style. When different cultures meet, intercultural misunderstandings can arise. This is where an agency with an international network is precisely the partner you need. As Porter Novelli’s German Exclusive Partner, F&H assists a raft of customers with international projects.
Guerilla PR
Guerilla PR is a form of communica- tion that builds on surprise effects and tactical flexibility. F&H has the creative potential to develop and implement unconventional PR ideas.

E.g. preparation of corporate speakers for an impressive appearance in the media and the skilled handling of journalists
