Hootville Communications, a PR and communications company for Australian non profits was born in 1999 offering media training, PR, website / social media development, campaigning and conference MC services. We haven’t stopped yet. Brett de Hoedt founded the enterprise with no business plan beyond straightforward world domination and the motto communications for good not evil. Both the motto and the plan remain in tact today.
Hootville has worked on issues including mental illness, youth homelessness, legalisation of euthanasia, child sponsorship, conservation, hepatitis prevention, disability employment and Indigenous reconciliation. These are tough but sure as hell beat promoting perfumes and sports drinks.
