Client Testimonials

“The Walker Comms team is a true partner to us, supporting the firm with strategic counsel and flawless execution and delivering great media results for our portfolio founders aiming to create positive global change.”

“Walker Comms mobilized within hours, strategized daily to land top-tier channels, and were on-call for everything from big picture planning to tiny copywriting tweaks. We received numerous inbound customers that will be instrumental to the next stage of the business, and we'd recommend them in a heartbeat for their energy, on-point messaging, creativity, and unparalleled skill.”

“They just get it. Whether it’s supporting our own firm, or helping our portfolio companies, they land the right messaging and opportunities to reach the audiences we’re after. We see them as an extension of our team.”

“From partnerships to funding announcements, content development to executive prep, the Walker team has helped us stand out to the right audiences in a crowded landscape and turned comms into a powerful driver toward our business objectives.”

“Our work with Walker Comms gives us deep access to market-leading knowledge and networks across VC and healthcare ecosystems.”

“The Walker Comms team are dynamic, thoughtful, and organized experts at their craft who were able to very quickly get up to speed on our business, product, and customers. They were great stewards of our vision and storytelling as we partnered to build and refine our messaging.”

How We Work

We measure impact, not hours.

We were born of agencies. They gave us creativity, collaboration, and networks that multiply their value. But the bill-by-the-hour model doesn't incentivize understanding, agility, or action.

We organize around value, not services.

The needs of high growth companies don't fit in boxes - our approach stretches and bends to the pressing demands of your company.

Partnerships take work. We are your guide and your ally.

Alliances depend on mutual focus on a shared goal, and an unwavering commitment to success. While you build your business, we craft and tell your story.
