PR 20/20 | About Us

Looking Back: Our Story

Founded in 2005, PR 20/20 was built on the simple strategy to offer modern marketing solutions that tied outputs to outcomes, deliver services by tech-savvy talent, and price those services transparently.

A few years later, PR 20/20 became the first firm in HubSpot's certified partner program, which now includes thousands of agencies worldwide. The agency is also the inspiration behind The Marketing Agency Blueprint (Wiley, 2012) and The Marketing Performance Blueprint (Wiley, 2014), both penned by founder and CEO, Paul Roetzer.

PR 20/20 launched Marketing Artificial Intelligence (AI) Institute in November 2016 with the mission to make AI more approachable and actionable for modern marketers. It then launched the Marketing AI Conference (MAICON) in 2019 to bring a community together that enables marketers to understand, pilot, and scale AI within their organization. PR 20/20 partners with marketing change agents to strengthen foundations, drive growth, and turn data into intelligence. PR 20/20 believes the future of business is more intelligent and more human—and looks forward to moving the industry toward this vision.
