Why 143?
A lighthouse symbolizes guidance and a clear way forward. We named 143PR after the local lighthouse that began flashing its iconic “1-4-3” signal in 1894 and still does today. Like that beacon, we draw on 30+ years of combined experience to help brands confidently navigate their communications needs.
