SociosPR

What SociosPR does

SociosPR is a Sacramento-based, certified woman-owned and minority-owned strategic communications and integrated marketing communications agency founded in 2016 by Lilly Cortés Wyatt, APR. The firm delivers public relations, media relations, crisis and reputation management, multicultural community engagement, paid media, creative production, and owned-platform content under a unified framework organized around four interconnected channels: Visibility (paid), Credibility (earned), Engagement (shared), and Owned Platforms. Its principal differentiator is bilingual Spanish-language capability and cultural intelligence embedded as a firm-wide methodology rather than offered as a standalone service line, supported by a team that includes Emmy Award-winning former newsroom executives and government communications veterans.

The firm's customer base spans government agencies, enterprises, and mission-driven organizations across California, with named engagements including Visit Sacramento, Sierra Northern Railway, Sacramento Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, Modesto City Schools, Kaiser Permanente, Bank of America, Covered California, CalHFA, The Nature Conservancy, and City Year Sacramento. Project outcomes are documented through case studies citing media placements, audience reach (e.g., 311 placements reaching 69 million for #JuntosSacramento), and publicity value (e.g., $2.6M media value generated). The firm is qualified to compete for federal, state, and local government contracts through six certifications: WOSB, EDWOSB, MBE, WBE, Caltrans DBE, and California Small Business.

SociosPR operates a professional services business model with quote-based, project-scoped engagements. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; engagements are typically multi-year and tailored to client scope, with senior strategists leading delivery from intake through execution. Distribution is direct via senior-led relationship sales and a website contact form, with no channel partner or marketplace model. The firm is privately held by its founder, has no disclosed outside investment or acquisition activity, and operates within a regional California footprint.
