The Manifest Names
Pointman News Creation
as Leading Recommended
PR Firm for 2021
Pointman News Creation is celebrating its second decade in the ever-evolving PR business in 2021! What better way to honour our impact on the industry than to announce a massive milestone for the company?
Just recently, The Manifest hailed Pointman News Creation as both the leading recommended and most reviewed PR firm for 2021!
To give you a bit more context, we’re sharing our story and how we received this honour.
Pointman News Creation was founded by Patrick McCaully, a top news creator from North America. With his invaluable front-line experience in the broadcast news industry (working in editorial positions for three of Canada’s 4 national broadcasters) McCaully led this team through highs and lows in the industry, providing outstanding strategies, solutions, serious media dominating pitches and services to clients.
Through the years, we’ve had the honour of working with businesses from all over the world — launching campaigns for startups and Fortune 500 companies. This dedication has allowed us to be acknowledged as one of the best PR agencies in the world by various professionals and award-giving organizations.
To add to our extensive list of accolades, we’re proud to have this award from The Manifest, a business blog platform. In their inaugural recognition, the website took a look at the outstanding firms that earned the most number of verified reviews from clients all over the world.
Receiving this honour is a great motivator for our team moving forward. We attribute this fantastic award to our clients, especially to those who graciously reviewed our services. The Manifest’s award is a representation of their success and support to our team. Thank you to all our clients!
See what we’re made of! Get in touch with the Pointman News Creation team and join Our 20-year battle against ‘vanilla PR.’. We’re excited to talk PR with you!
Pointman News Creation Recognized 12 x as a Leading Public Relations Firm on Clutch.co
Here at Pointman, we are not a cookie-cutter agency or an assembly line. We’re an exceptionally skilled and bold team behind some of North America’s most successful media-dominating PR strategies!
That said, our work has not gone unnoticed. We’re proud to announce our recognition by Clutch as one of Canada’s leading Canadian B2B firms in the marketing and advertising category. Specifically, we’re listed among the top 10 PR agencies in their directory (and #8 globally, #2 in Canada and # 3 in Toronto). Clutch is a B2B services ratings and reviews agency that strives to connect buyers with the best global service providers.
In order to have been considered for this award, Pointman News Creation was extensively evaluated based on our expertise and presence in the public relations space. The selection criteria included our clientele, work portfolio, and customer service. The latter was primarily judged by the quality of our client reviews. These reviews are collected directly by Clutch analysts, and speak to our unique skill set and quality results.

Clutch Identifies
Pointman News Creation
as a 2018 Global Leader
Since 2001, our company has focused on creating unique story angles that are designed to captivate the attention of the media. This leads to more ‘ink’ for your business and more bang for your PR buck. We specialize in PR, media training, new product launches, and we have worked with some amazing clients over the last seventeen years. This being said, our team is always looking to expand our network, which is why we decided to partner with Clutch.co, a B2B ratings and reviews firm in Washington, DC. We joined Clutch this year and have already received five incredible reviews from our clients totaling out to a 4.8 rating! Just a few of the praise we have received from clients includes:
“They are lean, agile, and able to pivot quickly.” – Board Director, Children’s Fundraising Foundation
“Their ideas are astounding.” – Broker, Royal LePage Terrequity Realty
“I believe in their vision and they’ve produced positive results.” – Investment Advisor, Hennick Wealth Management
There are a lot of big PR firms in Canada and to stand out, we always try to be different. Our founder Patrick McCaully started his career in the television news industry with editorial roles. With his experience, Patrick understands from the inside-out what makes an editor sit up and take notice. We dedicate a lot of time and effort to our clients to lead them to success. So when Clutch.co recently released a list of the top five public relations firms in Canada, we were extremely happy to find that we placed third!
The recognition did not stop there. Clutch’s sister website, The Manifest, ranked the Top 100 Public Relations Firms in the world and we are proud to announce that we were ranked 50!
As we said before, there are a lot of PR firms in Canada and we are always proud when clients come to us. We are excited to see the success that our firm is experiencing from our profile on Clutch. PR firms are very valuable for a brand and we know that we can help any company generate buzz. Check out some of the great companies that we have worked with and contact us today to get started. Let's get to that number one spot in Canada!
