13. Is it more effective to hire an American-run agency in Israel or a US-based agency?

17. How do you translate complex Israeli R&D into business messaging for North American buyers?
According to Amy Kenigsberg, COO of K2 Global Communications, the key is focusing on “What’s in it for me?” for every person along the buying chain, from the CEO to the end user. The same platform may be used by a limited number of people, but the benefits may be felt across the entire organization.
18. What is the best approach to geopolitical and crisis communications for Israeli start-ups?
From day one of PR, companies need to decide if they are “based in Israel” or have “R&D centers in Israel,” or if they are based in New York or London. When it comes to regional conflicts, Israeli companies need to be prepared with messages of resiliency, assuring their clients that they are still available to support them. According to Larry Kenigsberg, CEO of K2 Global Communications, during a crisis, always check with the legal team to determine how much truth can be revealed; it’s critical to actively address the problem as transparently as possible.
19. How can Israel-based tech companies leverage PR at conferences?
According to Amy Kenigsberg, COO of K2 Global Communications, the key is advanced notice. Start reaching out to media and analysts as early as three months before the conference, based on its size.

20. How do Israeli founders build personal brand authority on LinkedIn and industry trade publications to reach North American investors and enterprise buyers?
According to Larry Kenigsberg, CEO of K2 Global Communications, the key is consistency and adding to the conversation. One should never want to say what everyone else is saying. Say something new or noteworthy. Sometimes it pays to be controversial.
21. How does B2B public relations measure ROI and directly support lead generation pipelines compared to direct performance marketing?
Amy Kenigsberg, COO of K2 Global Communications, explains that public relations is an integral part of the PESO Model® infrastructure, as developed by Gini Dietrich. ROI needs to be measured in that context. In addition, the metrics are changing. Web traffic is going down, but when potential buyers arrive at a site, they are further along in the buying process; they have already done their research within the AI engines, such as Gemini, Perplexity, Copilot, or ChatGPT.
22. Can an Israel-based PR agency assist with internal communications and local employer branding to attract top R&D talent in Israel?
According to Amy Kenigsberg of K2 Global Communications, internal communications is an integral part of all communications. The most important stakeholders are employees.

Once the messaging is complete, media and pitch training is much simpler. K2 Global Communications provides comprehensive media and pitch training.
24. How easy is it to balance traditional press release distribution with ongoing thought leadership and inbound content?
Amy Kenigsberg of K2 Global Communications counsels against saturating the market with press releases. More than two per month is usually too many. Thought leadership content should appear at least quarterly, based on the volume of trade publications. The more trade publications, the more possible it is to place thought leadership content. All content, whether press releases, thought leadership articles, or whitepapers should be repurposed to be promoted across all channels.
25. What is the typical pricing model or monthly retainer for B2B PR services in Israel?
