History

Starting out, the firm specialized in financial PR, carrying many clients in the oil and gas industries. Over the years that client base developed into the education and non-profit sectors, and eventually to the wide variety of clients the firm represents today. The STF | PR staff has also grown to accommodate these changes, more than doubling in size over the past two years.

Clients

STF | PR has worked with clients such as Verizon Wireless, Flintco Construction, Tulsa Community College, and numerous local projects, including the city of Tulsa’s recent Vision 2025 bond issue.

With around 50 clients locally, regionally and nationally, STF | PR gained national recognition recently for the public relations plan for the Buried 1957 Plymouth Belvedere that was unearthed after spending 50 years underground. The event drew in journalists from 11 countries, with stories appearing in thousands of newspapers and magazines throughout the world.

Growth

The firm recently opened a second office in Oklahoma City. STF | PR also recently moved into a new office space in Downtown Tulsa that doubled the size of their old space.
