NAIPRA (North American Association
of Independent Public Relations Agencies) is an online network for heads
of independent pr firms in the US and Canada. Naipra is the only organization
for agencies not owned by another company. There are no by-laws, meetings,
dues, or anything else associated with other professional organizations.
There are two main
purposes for the organization: to promote the value of working with
smaller, independent firms as opposed to large, subsidiaries of other
agencies; and to connect with one another on a private basis on matters
important to our businesses, such as recruitment, new business and day-to-day
operations.
Please feel free to use
this site in any way you feel will further your own business as well as
promote the advantages of public relations independence.
