There is no one better at client service than Alexandra Preate.

Alexandra Preate and her excellent team did a fantastic job promoting my book, Skirting Heresy: The Life and Times of Margery Kempe. With a vast Rolodex of contacts around the world, they are that rare group that puts you first, who believes their most important job is to make the world know about you and your passions, to think 10 steps ahead of you. They work in the spirit of wisdom, class, integrity, grace, and compassion, always in harmony with you and your needs. No one does it better.

Alexandra Preate has unparalleled expertise in creating strategies around message delivery and securing media coverage. She and I have worked together on a number of projects and I remain continually impressed with her unique insight into strategic public relations.

Alexandra Preate and her team at Capital HQ possess both such an extraordinary competence and strength of character that I recommend them without reservation to any company looking to enhance it’s public image and its culture. Alexandra has represented our company before it even really existed and is as enthusiastic about our brand today as she was more than six years ago. She is partner in our business in every way and is one of this world’s great human beings.
