PR Consultant Frank Pagani Adds SCORE Westchester to Client Roster

Frank Pagani, President of Pagani PR/Getting Your Story Right, has announced that his firm has added White Plains-based SCORE Westchester to its roster of clients for providing creative editorial blog content for the organization’s website: www.scorewestchester.com.

SCORE Westchester is one of 320 all-volunteers chapters of a national non-profit association that provides advisory and small business mentoring services for individuals looking to start or grow a small business. It is a resource partner of the U.S. Small Business Administration and has been advising small businesses for 50 years.

Among the blog postings Pagani created was the recent announcement that the chapter was named SCORE New York Metro Area Chapter of the Year for making a significant impact on hundreds of small businesses and the local economy. According to a recent study by Pricewaterhouse Coopers, SCORE Westchester’s network of 40 volunteer mentors were instrumental in jump starting 520 new businesses while 325 SCORE clients reported that their businesses grew. As a result, 70 new jobs were added, making the non-profit chapter a key job creator for the private sector.

As it turns out, Pagani PR is among the new businesses that benefitted from the FREE business consulting services.   “The SCORE counselors David Leibowitz, Nina Mattikow and John Chester were extremely helpful in guiding me to develop a business plan focused on targeting my strategic public relations and marketing services to small businesses, entrepreneurs and start-ups,” Pagani said.  He added “It was a real eye-opener that their advice, based on their combined wealth of knowledge and respective areas of business expertise, was free but priceless given what I gained”. He added: “SCORE Westchester is an invaluable resource for the small business community.”

Since starting Pagani PR/Getting Your Story Right 18 months ago, the firm has been engaged by a diverse group of clients including Today’s Students Tomorrow’s Teachers, DoubleTree by Hilton Tarrytown, Howard Properties, Water’s Edge Resort & Spa,  Citrin Cooperman, Copper Beech Inn and Picture-That to undertake strategic public relations and marketing  initiatives. He also launched My Defining Moments a creative copywriting service to help baby boomers and seniors tell the stories of the events that shaped their lives.

An award-winning business writer, Pagani is a frequent contributor of bylined feature articles for the Westchester County Business Journal and the Fairfield County Business Journal.
