Douglas Elliman worked with South House PR to promote some of the biggest listings in the Houston area. Legendary developer Gerald Hines’s home was the most expensive listing at the time, and we secured them coverage both locally and nationally.

Barbie mania took over Hollywood and beyond in the summer of 2023. SHPR saw the worldwide buzz and encouraged their clients to take advantage of it. We highlighted many Barbie pink items from our clients and the press exploded. Two similar concepts, Slowpokes and Citizens of Montrose, received major press attention without competing for the spotlight. Both coffee shops hit news stations, online articles and media interviews for their Barbie specials.
