Who we are

Led by Founder & CEO Aquila Mendez-Valdez, the HITsters (as one client dubbed us) are a mix of busy moms, up and coming talent, and fiercely loyal Texans. Our team offers every client we work with a fully customized approach to PR and Marketing with exceptional client communications. We love strong cups of coffee and weak dad jokes. If you’re bringing either to a meeting, consider us in.

Driven with integrity

Integrity is one of our core values, but we don’t stop there. We like to say that we’re the fiduciaries of the PR and Marketing world. If we wouldn’t implement a strategy or tactic for our own business, we certainly won’t recommend it for yours. The highest compliment we receive from clients is that they feel like they can trust us, and that’s a role we take very seriously.

Testimonials

We would be remiss if we did not take the opportunity to thank you for everything your company provided us for our event. We are quite selective when it comes to who we align our brand with and unbeknownst to you, you already had a huge hurdle to overcome. In the past, we had a not so pleasant experience with another company making us very skeptical. Well, it’s hard to argue with your energy, enthusiasm and ideas, so moving forward with your company has left us without any regrets!

From day one you were organized, a great listener and your ability to take charge and coordinate all our PR and marketing gave us time to focus on other aspects of the event. Your team always answered their phones, responded to emails promptly and when you said you would do something you did it. You didn’t even flinch when we threw you a few curve balls in between! Everything you promised (and then some) you made happen for our event. From the days leading up to the event with social media and special events to the tremendous amount of media exposure we received, it was all because of your efforts. What you did for us was all a huge undertaking and all within a very short timeline!

You exhibit numerous attributes that go above and beyond anyone’s expectations and we are so grateful to have you for all of your expertise. Thank you again, we appreciate you and we’re glad to have you and your company as an extension of our team.
