About SLH

SLH Communications provides public relations, communications, and professional branding help for people doing something difficult, complex, or unique.

The “SLH” in SLH Communications stands for “sound like a human,” and that’s precisely what we aim to help every client do. Avoiding empty jargon and sounding like the intelligent humans you are gets results.

If you're here, you might be: 

- Struggling to convey why your research is important and deserves funding

- Concerned about how AI will impact your reputation and revenue

- Laboring to get policymakers' attention on your problem in a sea of problems

- Battling misinformation online about your work (also known as "a PR problem")

- Preparing introverted executives to be company spokespeople

- Unable to agree internally on how to talk about your organization

- Trying to build credibility with a skeptical audience that's hard to crack

If that sounds like you, we want to talk.

We like working with nerds, experts, visionaries, policy wonks, do-gooders, and others with complicated but important messages to get out there. Above all, we love words and stories, and we’d love to help you tell yours.

Globally-Connected

We’re based in beautiful San Diego, California, but we’ve worked with globally-connected clients in dozens of states and Washington, D.C.

Woman-Owned

We’re also a certified Women Business Enterprise (WBE #20001173) and State of California Small Business Enterprise (SB Micro #2021497), if you’re into that kind of thing.

Who We Work With

We love working with nerds, experts, visionaries, policy wonks, do-gooders and others with complicated but important stories to tell. We’re a great fit for you if you’re a leader or leading a business or nonprofit with a sort-of-unsexy but incredibly valuable product, initiative, or idea. 

You may be having a hard time articulating yourself, or knowing how to get in front of the right audiences. Maybe you have the digital and advertising side figured out, but want more bang for your buck publicity-wise. You’re smart, adaptable, you’ve got a healthy sense of humor – and so do we. 

We are here for project-based, results-oriented work, as well as retainers and hourly. Send us a message to learn more about our fee structure, and how we provide value to clients.
