Stavvy Controls Its Narrative — 57 Pieces of Media Coverage in One Year

When Stavvy made two acquisitions in rapid succession in 2023, they needed communications support fast. York IE helped develop full communications strategies — not just press releases but social media, internal FAQs, and narrative control across every channel. Over the course of the year, Stavvy secured 57 pieces of media coverage, established a proactive media relations cadence built on pre-pitching and bylined articles, and built the “drumbeat marketing” program that kept the brand visible between major announcements.

When we bring a problem to York IE, they have the resources and the willingness to help us figure it out — no matter what it is. And that goes way beyond MarCom. No matter what we throw at them, they come back with really great advice, and it’s always something actionable. We would not be able to build out the number of campaigns that we have without the support that we get from York IE.
