Crier Communications

Specialties

We are a brand amplifier — blurring the lines between public relations, advertising, social media and events. We turn up your volume. We get you in.

History

Established in 1998.

We are consumer lifestyle marketing experts. We cut through the clutter and get the attention of consumers, editors and influencers to amplify your brand. Whether it’s food, beauty, health, fitness, education, design or technology, we have the connections to get you noticed where it counts.

Though our roots are firmly planted in public relations, we are equally adept at social media, advertising, events and experiential marketing. If you need a brand spankin’ new Website, logo or package design, we’ll have fun making you look good — and then have a better time telling the whole world about it.

Business Owner

Co-​founder and creative director, J.P. is a devotee of the communications arts and is as responsible for the look of Crier’s work as the content. His 20+ year career in communications began at Yamaha, where in 1987 he demonstrated the company’s electronic musical instruments around the world. He later served as Yamaha’s director of advertising and public relations. In 1993, J.P. left Yamaha to launch an advertising firm in Lusaka, Zambia, which introduced the first smart card-​based banking product in the continent (Yes, Africa. Long story).

In ’95, he joined the LA-​based ad agency, The Phelps Group, as an account supervisor and headed account teams for Roland and Steinberg Software. Just prior to launching Crier, J.P. was vice president and technology practice leader at Murphy O’Brien, a Santa Monica-​based PR agency.

An intrepid foodie, J.P. knows the best place to eat in L.A., wherever you are going, and whatever you’re craving. Go ahead — test him!
