about WordPop
We understand that being the “best-kept secret” in your industry can be frustrating. Our founder, April Enriquez, started WordPop Public Relations to help brands become found, trusted and chosen.
As an award-winning public relations and brand messaging expert for more than a decade, April becomes your team’s “in-house” advisor as she guides the creation of clear, vibrant and compelling content.
April sets realistic expectations and provides you with a plan and anticipated costs before a project starts. The innovative brands she works with don’t have to waste another day or dollar while feeling stuck, invisible or underrated. Instead, they can achieve brand clarity that yields visibility and customer trust.
Here are a few honors the joy-filled toddler mom and cold brew-smoothie enthusiast has earned
