Inspire The Now

Inspire The Now is a female-founded, full-service public relations and marketing agency headquartered in Los Angeles, California, with a bicoastal team serving both coasts of the United States. Founded in 2016 by Ashley Dillahunty, the agency was established with the goal of helping emerging companies grow into household names and repositioning legacy brands as conversation leaders in their respective industries. With over 15 years of experience in media, marketing, and press, the founder brings a distinctive background that spans television production, on-camera presenting for E! News and E! Online, and editorial leadership as West Coast Bureau Chief for In Touch Weekly, Life and Style, and Closer magazines.

The agency operates as a boutique brand incubator, offering individualized attention to each client through bespoke service packages tailored to unique brand objectives. Its client roster spans a wide range of consumer-facing industries, including beauty, fitness, health and wellness, food and beverage, fashion, lifestyle, technology, travel, finance, and spirits. Both emerging startups and established legacy brands turn to the agency to carve out differentiated market positions and build singular brand identities in competitive landscapes.

Inspire The Now employs a 360-degree, multi-dimensional approach to brand awareness, combining earned media strategy with influencer and celebrity relations, thought leadership development, and creative campaign execution. Core service offerings include DTC launch strategies, performance PR, website and brand copywriting, earned media placements, creative media gifting, rebrand strategies, brand collaborations, influencer and celebrity seeding, fundraise announcements, and press campaign management. The agency's team brings expertise across brand strategy, development and repositioning, content creation, activations and events, and celebrity and influencer relations.

As a collaborative partner rather than a traditional PR firm, Inspire The Now is positioned to deliver innovative and disruptive solutions to brand challenges, making it a relevant resource for CPG and consumer brand companies seeking strategic communications support in the food, beverage, beauty, and wellness sectors.
