Berg Muirhead and Associaties is gearing up to take a significant step forward this year, adding a handful of large clients and some new hires to go with them.
The New Center-based public relations and marketing firm has made a name for itself since 1998 handling a number of high-profile clients both in Detroit (
Strategic Staffing Solutions) and outside of it (the
Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island and
The Somerset Collection in Troy). Those clients aren't going anywhere.
"We have a great set of longterm clients and clients who come in and out with projects," says Peter Van Dyke, partner with
Berg Muirhead and Associates.
This year, the firm is adding some larger clients. Berg Muirhead and Associates is now handling work with Metro Detroit’s new Regional Transit Authority and the
Varnum law firm, which is opening a new office in downtown Detroit. Berg Muirhead and Associates is also helping a second-stage manufacturing firm in metro Detroit (Van Dyke declined to name it) re-brand and is about sign a contract with a major local health-care provider.
Berg Muirhead and Associates made two replacement hires last year, but Van Dyke expects to add some new hires on top of his staff of eight employees and two interns soon.
"We are looking to expand the team," Van Dyke says.
