Last updated: October 2026 Dallas–Fort Worth is now the fastest-growing corporate reputation market in the United States, and the work that lands here looks nothing like the work that lands in New York or Los Angeles. The Metroplex is home to more Fortune 500 headquarters than any U.S. metro except New York and Chicago — […]
Last updated: October 2026 A reporter calls you for comment, you decline, the story runs anyway. Two years later the article is still the first thing a client, board member, or recruiter hears about you, except now they are not hearing it from Google. They are hearing it from ChatGPT. Or Claude. Or Gemini. Or […]
Last updated: September 2026 Modern reputation crises no longer happen in one place. A story that used to live on a single reporter’s desk now breaks on X, gets reposted to Reddit within the hour, is re-cut into a TikTok by lunchtime, hits Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts by the end of the day, and […]
Last updated: September 2026 If you are a founder heading into a Series B, a general partner about to close a new fund, or an operating executive at a portfolio company where the board is nervous — the first thing anyone with a checkbook does before speaking to you is Google your name. Not your […]

Last Updated: September 2026 If you run — or advise — a Council of Governments (COG), a Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO), a regional planning agency, a Joint Powers Authority, or a special district, you already know the drill: your comms team is small, your policy board is public, your meetings are covered by the Brown […]
Type your name into Google. Watch what appears under the search bar before you finish typing. For most people, autocomplete is a convenience. For anyone dealing with a reputation problem, it is one of the loudest signals on the entire internet. A single ugly word — “scam,” “lawsuit,” “fraud,” “arrested,” “divorce,” “cheating,” “fired” — attached […]
Last updated: September 2026 Google Gemini is now the front door to Google Search for a growing share of your audience. When a prospect, journalist, hiring committee, or opposing counsel asks Gemini “who is [your name]?” or “is [your company] trustworthy?”, the two-paragraph answer they get back becomes the new first impression. It is often […]
Last updated: September 2026 If you are reading this, something you do not want a client, board member, recruiter, or investor to find is sitting on page one when they type your name or your company into Google. You have already tried the obvious things — you asked the publisher to update the article, you […]
Last updated: August 2026 Los Angeles reputation problems do not behave like reputation problems anywhere else in the country. A studio executive’s leaked deposition, a founder’s Snap-style tabloid weekend, a Beverly Hills surgeon’s Healthgrades pile-on, a Century City private-wealth advisor’s FINRA disclosure, a Silicon Beach founder’s TechCrunch profile turning sideways — the file lands on […]
