How is Heartspace organized?
Heartspace has a small core-team that are experts in both technology and communications. We then hire freelancers that we match with our clients' projects, and each project gets a tailor-made team. All freelancers are highly qualified experts in their fields, and some of these are presented below.
Advantages of our organization:
By working with freelance experts, we can offer specialized competence tailored to each project. By providing a digital platform the freelancers can work seamlessly with the clients and the clients do not need to manage the team, it's all done by our project leaders and advanced automation-tools.
The scalability of our operations with low over-head costs allows us to easily decline projects that we are not passionate about. In its first year of operation, Heartspace has turned down over one and a half million in agency revenues. We only want to work with projects that make the biggest possible positive difference to society. We do not work for fossile fuels, weapons or drugs and we say no to brand washing campaigns or when we see that words like "sustainability" and "impact" are used solely for marketing purposes.
Do you also want to work with an PR provider that makes a difference and where you choose your projects based on what you are passionate about? Get in touch!
Why choose Heartspace?
Heartspace recognized an existing void: valuable narratives were being drowned out by irrelevant chatter. Our objective is to elevate your stories, providing them the recognition they merit. We integrate artificial intelligence advancements with human inventiveness, making certain that your voice becomes a standout note rather than a mere echo lost in the abyss.
If you are running a small organisation with limited resources you can use the same tools as our experts use for free or at a low monthly cost. If you are running an impact company with funding or revenue you can get access to quality PR-expertise through our network of AI-augmented human experts at a fraction of the cost in time and money as traditional PR-firms will charge.
The only thing we have in common with most PR firms is that we create publicity. But we do it without high overhead-costs that induces high retainers. We only work for projects we truly believe in. We do not believe in PR being about changing perceptions and gaining attention. We believe it to be what it stands for: building strong relations with stakeholders. And good relations that hold the test of time are always based on authentic, caring and effective communication.
Driven by expertise in storytelling, and digital communication and equipped with custom developed and cutting edge AI-tools, our team is dedicated to help you get your story crafted in both an authentic, caring and effective way. We believe in the power of stories to inspire, engage, and drive change.
We envision an entirely transformed media environment. Our aspiration is for less polarization and more constructive dialogue; depth in place of superficiality; inspiration over fear. It's not just about dreaming though - it's about creating this new reality together with you.
We envision a world where turning on the news incites hope and inspires positive action.
"Raise your words, not your voice. It is rain that grows flowers, not thunder."
the poet Rumi once said.
Division, hopelessness, and oversimplification damage our ability to talk with, understand and learn from each other. We often appear more focused on tearing each other down rather than seeking to understand our shared humanity. This polarization weakens democracy and stalls progress in finding constructive solutions and creating a sustainable future.
In the noise of everyday conversation, where loud voices threaten to drown out the reason, we need that nurturing rain that Rumi was talking about more than ever.
Heartspace was born to foster a "rainier" media climate and public conversation.
Through our AI-powered platform, we aim to empower and amplify the voices of those who can drive positive change and improve our world. Together, we can cultivate a media climate that values nuance, embraces solution-oriented thinking, and celebrates positivity.
By helping people understand each other and work together, we can reconnect with each other and our world. By finding common ground, especially in disagreement, we can deepen our shared knowledge and make intelligent, compassionate choices to build a bright and stable future for everyone.
Empathy, active listening, and mutual respect can create a space for productive conversation and new ways to solve problems.
We have seen a future where this is possible. And we know that we can create that future together. Maybe not until recently. But we can now. And we will.
Let's unite in our quest for a more compassionate and understanding world where the power of constructive dialogue drives positive change.
Join us in shaping the future with Heartspace AI.
From the future with love,
The Team of Heartspace
