Fifth Ring Houston is four! Yes, on Wednesday 8th August we marked the fourth anniversary of the opening of our doors and we celebrated with something every four-year-old loves. Cake.
And not just any old cake, we had cupcakes decorated with stars and stripes and took time out to hand deliver them to clients to show our appreciation for the support they have shown over the past four years. And with...

Yesterday Deon Daugherty with the Houston Business Journal called and asked if I would comment on a recent article in The Onion about the increase in job opportunities for recent PR grads in the fracking industry.
For the uninitiated, The Onion, which labels itself as a satirical news outlet, in some parts of society is viewed as a reliable news source, but in reality it is about a step below...

Every once in a while I tweet music star, Taylor Swift, to let her know that I'd be happy to answer the phone if she ever wanted to call me.
She never tweets me back. Besides becoming a Grammy nominated country music artist, I don’t know what more I can do to get her to notice me. Which is why I’m writing a blog post.
I need to strengthen my social media presence so maybe I might...

For the holidays, the Fifth Ring Houston team went out for dinner. Since we are communications professionals, we notice things that sometimes go unnoticed by the public-at-large.
Once dinner was finished, the waiter brought the check and an envelope with a special offer. In an effort to have customers return, the restaurant provided diners with an envelope guaranteeing a prize. Service-type...

As Operations Manager here in Aberdeen, it is not often that the chance to travel crops up (certainly not travel that requires my passport) – that tends to be left to my more client facing, business development or just plain jammy colleagues.
However, having recently introduced a new Operating System into our offices in both Aberdeen and Dubai, it was time for Houston to join us now that...

Who would have thought that in 2008 we would be ranked as the 10th largest PR firm in Houston?
We opened our doors in August 2008, a week later we had a hurricane, a month after that we had a U.S. financial market meltdown and the month after that we headed into the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays. Not a great way to open up a PR agency.
In January 2009, we put it all in the past,...

So here I am, my 10th anniversary at Fifth Ring has just passed. So what’s happened over the past decade? Well, quite a lot as it happens…
On a personal front it’s been a bit of a rollercoaster ride (that probably wont be the last cliché I use so will make my apologies to Reuben Webb right now). I became a father (planned), had a car accident that resulted in an operation...

I was recently brought into the exciting world of PR working as an intern for Fifth Ring in Houston. Little did I know how much I would learn and gain from this experience.
Fifth Ring Houston opened its doors in August 2008, and in a short amount of time has flourished into a powerful Houston agency. Recently, Fifth Ring won a PRSA Houston Mid-Size Agency of the Year Excalibur Award, and it has been...
