Our Portland Office

Why we love Portland

We're proud to have our office right in the Pearl District, one of the city's most creative communities.

Our gorgeous Northwest Portland office puts us in a prime position to connect with clients in any industry—as well as tap into the hearts of Portland consumers. Our neighbors include tech giants like AirBnB and SurveyMonkey, as well as growing startups in the nearby coworking spaces.

Located in such a thriving business district allows us to easily connect with our clients from some of Portland's biggest industries, including food and beverage, marketing services, and of course, tech—they call it "Silicon Forest" for a reason! PR Hacker Portland specializes in integrated marketing services across multiple disciplines, including public relations, video production, brand strategy, experiential events, influencer marketing, social media marketing and more.

 

A day in the life at PR Hacker Portland

From sun up to sun down, PR Hacker Portlanders "keep it weird." Lots of team members arrive by bike from the Steel or Burnside Bridge—and since we're are always looking to "hack" our days, they've perfectly timed their commute to avoid waiting for the bridge lift.

Our public transit riders get off at the MAX Green and Yellow line station at Northwest 6th Ave and Davis St, and our drivers quickly find spots in the many parking lots in the 4-block radius around our office. No matter how we get to work, we start the morning by honoring one of Portland's greatest assets: coffee. Our hip-hop fans flock to Deadstock, our serious caffeine snobs swear by Stumptown, and our copywriters scope out a quiet spot in the courtyard at Floyd's.

On any given day, you can catch us redesigning brand guidelines for a global pet food company, hashing out the talking points for a client's upcoming interview in The Portland Business Journal, shooting viral videos to put a scrappy fintech start-up on the map, running an international PR campaign for a new cryptocurrency, or throwing water on a corporate communications crisis for one of our CPG clients. Once we've helped shape your brand and message, our accounts team works hard to get them in the right hands—working all the national and local media outlets that matter, as well as key social media influencers.

But of course, we don't just sit in front of our screens all day: our in-house experiential marketing team has put on events for companies of all sizes and budgets—always placing the customer experience first.

So, what's our secret?

Unlike other agencies, our office comes at content like artists, but marketing like scientists. That means we create story driven content, full of psychological triggers that activate key emotions and spur customer action—but also A/B and multivariate test everything—and we do mean everything—we promote, continuing to optimize your social media campaigns as new data flows in.

Here at PR Hacker Portland, our services are diverse as the companies we offer them to. But whatever we're up to —and whatever industry we're working in—we always stay data-driven, viral optimized, and growth focused.

 

PR Hacker Portland after dark

Anyone who's been to Portland can attest that there are too many bars to go and see. Naturally, PR Hackers have done our fair share of research and we have a few of our favorites that we swear by. We definitely would recommend going to the Q Restaurant and Bar if you want a place that's chill and a little noisy, if that's your thing. Most of our PR Hackers would probably agree though that Interurban has the best happy hour in town, and we we'd highly recommend it. You know for team building purposes.

After our team building sessions, then we all head back to our humble abodes. Our hipsters are proud to call the Pearl District home and our dog lovers head back to Mount Tabor. Regardless where we call home, we're ready to relax, hit reset and start anew the next morning to make more magic happen.
