"LyonSHARE has been Zillow’s incredible partner for nearly 8 years – assisting our communications efforts from early days through critical stages of growth, including our IPO. Dawn and the team are completely integrated with ours with a level of trust and respect I've never had with an agency before."
— Amy Bohutinsky, Chief Marketing Officer, Zillow
LyonSHARE Communications is a boutique-size strategic communications firm with a big punch, drawing on a team of pros who have been around the block and who have the insight and experience to handle the toughest communications challenges through to the most creative consumer campaigns. The firm was founded by Dawn Lyon, who spent 16 years running in-house PR departments and programs before creating the “non-agency” model she always wanted as the client.
"LyonSHARE really is an extension of our internal team – they are immersed in our business and are dedicated to our success. No other agency that we’ve worked with has the combination of top-tier communications strategy and media results that the LyonSHARE team provides."
— Bryan Trussel, Co-founder and CEO, Glympse
Let’s face it: it doesn’t matter how great an agency’s reputation is if the team handling your account doesn’t have game. LyonSHARE has attracted some of the best and brightest from big agencies and reputable companies, large and small, and we have no turnover. That’s because we’re grownups with an entrepreneurial spirit, and we do what it takes to generate results that matter – across time zones and international borders. Many of us have worked together more than a decade and we know each other’s strengths – and weaknesses – and how to best leverage our combined assets to deliver maximum results.
We’re not at our best if we are not entrenched as partners in our clients’ businesses. And, we’re proud of how long these partnerships last – most of our clients are long-term, going on 5-7 years. We aren’t constantly trolling for new business, and we certainly don’t try and win accounts then “figure out how to staff them” like so many agencies do. We come to the table with the team you’ll work with, and we’re only going to pitch your business if we are excited about working on it. Period.
We keep it simple; we don’t work on retainer; and, with LyonSHARE, you get what you pay for. We work with our partners to create strategic communications programs aligned with business and marketing objectives – and budgets. You get complete transparency into our activity-based planning, and we constantly share how we are tracking. In fact, each month with your invoice, you’ll get a reconciliation between budget and actuals so you always know where we stand. Dawn hated those “surprise” bills as a client and she refuses to operate that type of firm.
"LyonSHARE has been an incredible partner, providing Glassdoor with an outstanding PR program, ongoing media support, and social media outreach - all at a cost level we could never hope to achieve with a large agency."
— Robert Hohman, Founder & CEO. Glassdoor
