Press Run launches

Amelia

June 11, 2020

Toronto sailor Amelia was almost born on a boat and has been sailing ever since. After working for several larger Toronto PR agencies and assisting Canadian Yachting as social media manager, she decided to bring this experience to the marine industry with her own communications company, Press Run.

Currently Amelia is working with Northstar Marine Insurance and the Toronto International Boat Show.

As the world moves through the stages of the coronavirus, Amelia remains optimistic and says she “believes this is an opportunity for brands to seize this valuable time to amplify their brand presence online.” With boaters spending more time at home in front of screens, the importance of social media and digital communication has never been clearer.

Press Run“Press Run offers companies the opportunity to choose a small and specialized independently run communications agency in lieu of the big guys and traditional partners. We are passionate about results but don’t require an arm and a leg in the process” Amelia says and what could be better than that.

I reach for the VHF to radio the lockmaster in charge of Erie Canal’s Lock 32 dead ahead. Our boat spins gently in the current like a maple key in a mud puddle.

“This is Onondaga,” I say. “Headed westbound and requesting passage.”
