COMMUNITY COMMUNICATION INSIGHTS

AIM isn’t public relations and it isn’t public affairs; it’s the missing middle.

Where PR focuses on reputation and Public Affairs focuses on policy, AIM focuses on making sure communities actually know what’s going on.

We function as a modern municipal communications office, translating official updates into clear, timely, human language residents can understand. Your work isn’t about spin or publicity; it’s about accessibility, comprehension, and trust.

In every partnership, AIM becomes the public-facing voice, the translator, and the digital frontline communicator ensuring leaders stay connected to the people they serve and communities stay informed, empowered, and engaged.

AIM is not PR.
AIM is not Public Affairs.
AIM is a fully outsourced communications department for municipalities and community-serving public entities including:

  • Town & Village Governments

  • Parish/County Offices

  • Mayor & Council Communications

  • Public Safety & Community Relations

AIM blends pieces of both PR & public affairs, but with a very different mission:

  • Operational Communication

    not just reputation work

  • Community Information Systems

    (updates, notices, alerts, recaps)

  • Digital Presence Management

    for official public channels

  • Brand Voice Development

    which municipalities normally don’t have

  • Rapid Response Updates

    when something changes in the community

  • Public Transparency Tools

    through social media, templates, and reporting

  • Message Polishing

    so officials sound clear, consistent, and human

  • Cost-Efficient Departmental Support

    a fraction of hiring in-house staff

How AIM Works

  • Evaluate current communication channels

  • Build your messaging voice and templates

  • Manage ongoing social + public updates

  • Deliver monthly insights and recommendations

Why Clear Communication Matters

Why Clear Communication Matters

Communities with consistent official communication see up to a 30% decrease in misinformation-related complaints.

Clear, consistent public communication is one of the most effective tools local leaders have. It reduces misinformation, strengthens community trust, and keeps residents aligned with what’s happening inside their city or parish. When updates are timely and easy to understand, leaders face fewer operational bottlenecks and citizens feel more informed, supported, and connected to their local government.
