TidePoint PR

Congratulations to our senior partner Will Haynie on being elected to his third term as Mayor of Mount Pleasant, SC! We are humbled to have him on our team… besides all of that, he’s one heck of a great guy!

Who wore it better? Did you know Darius Rucker’s Southern Style cover art was taken at a house on Sullivans Island? The TidePoint PR team recently met at the same location to discuss strategy, and of course we had to re-create his amazing cover. So, who wore it better? My vote goes for Leyla!

The TidePoint PR team catching up to talk strategy. By the way, not a bad location!

Very well said! We totally agree.
