Meet Sean James of Vision Works in McDonough

Today we’d like to introduce you to Sean James.

Sean James began his professional career in New York City working in government and politics. Sean quickly moved thru his career from being a communications intern to becoming a key team member of Brooklyn Borough President Eric L. Adams’ administration. After thriving in the Special Assistant role, Sean felt it was time to step out on faith and launch his vision, the Vision Works Public Relations (PR) Firm. Shortly after resigning from his career in government Sean relocated to Atlanta, GA to build a growing full-service public relations firm.

Over the last three years, thru the leadership and foresight of Sean, the Vision Works PR firm is trailblazing in the public relations industry, especially in the under-represented market of Christian Church PR.

Has it been a smooth road?
Has it been a smooth road? If not, what were some of the struggles along the way? Sean exclaims that the journey has truly been a spectrum of experiences with many highs and lows. Sean recalls “when I left government everyone thought I was crazy and surely lost my mind, the first few weeks I was sleeping on my grandads couch in NYC packing boxes and working day and night laying the business foundations such as the logo, website, email templates, pitch letters, request forms, organization charts and meeting with people who I thought could help but after much trial and error I realized that everything I needed was within me, but I needed to recondition my mind from being an employee to organizational builder”. It is through Sean’s unwavering commitment to vision that Vision Works PR stands today as a leading consulting agency for churches and other industries.

So let’s switch gears a bit and go into the Vision Works story. Tell us more about the business.
The Vision Works Public Relations Firm, LLC was founded with the goal of helping clients thrive in today’s highly competitive marketing environment. We envision brands that are creatively forged, strategically thought out and methodically developed. We believe in a world where passions are actualized through the creation of robust experiences and dedicated services.

We remain committed to developing the vision of our clients through excellent service, great relations and cutting edge technology, backed by our core principles and dedication to greater than solutions.

At the Vision Works Public Relations Firm, LLC we rely on three core values to drive success:
• Integrity
• Innovation
• Dedication

We are most proud of the work we do to cultivate, protect and enhance the brands and businesses we work with. Many of our clients come to us from previous experiences with marketing firms that did not help them reach their bottom line and/or ended on not so good terms. So we are able to take clients from a bad experience and give them something brand new and ultimately refreshing.

How do you think the industry will change over the next decade?
I believe over the next five years you will see more full-service agencies pop up because there is a demand for pr/marketing agencies that can do a little bit of everything. Gone are the days of only pitching to the press and bloggers. Organizations and individuals are looking to reach markets they currently have in a more streamlined and authentic way.
