Innovations across the internet continuously change how organizations and individuals interact with government, business-to-business providers, and their relevant stakeholders. Connect smarter and embrace the data that can only be captured through digital communications tools. The world is open — and listening. Send the right signals. Get the right feedback. Derran Eaddy has collaborated on the management of organic social media campaigns that have generated over a million impressions for a single event, without using an advertising budget. As a consultant to the Military Health System, he navigated Department of Defense protocols to launch the first Military Health System social media program in 2008.

Public Relations and Public Affairs

Create the Community – Make a difference by adding value to your community and industry sector. 


Engaging in dialogue through traditional news outlets — television programs, newspapers, and radio stations — requires an understanding of the news industry and a forward-thinking approach to becoming a valued community and industry partner. As a career-long communications specialist, Derran Eaddy has refined a matrixed outreach approach that also considers trade publications, community service projects, events and meetings. Think: authentic message, knowledge of the issues, and confident delivery; then drive a seamless convergence through the social media and the online “web-scape.”
