"Hila provides an excellent local PR service for start-ups and other companies looking to increase their presence in the Israeli market. She knows how to build an effective pitch and get good results in a tough market. I've worked with Hila for several years and she's always been professional, hard-working and a pleasure to work with."
Neal Sherman, Executive Director at United States-Israel Educational Foundation (retired)
Prior to my retirement, I had the pleasure of working with Hila for some 5 years in which she served as the PR representative of the United States-Israel Educational Foundation, where I served as Executive Director. The Foundation manages Israel's participation in the US governments' Fulbright Program of academic exchanges.
Hila demonstrated a wonderful ability to take even minor events and minor personalities and to find in them the angle which could be used to arouse media interest. On the basis of her effective professional efforts, we moved from placing occasional items on little-known websites to regular coverage in major Hebrew language news outlets.

"In my capacity as the Director of EducationUSA Center-Israel, I have worked with Ms. Akerman for the past 10 years in the context of Public Relations for various events that we organize on a continuous basis.
Ms. Akerman's talents in the area of PR are showcased through her intelligence, thorough knowledge of the field of Public Relations in Israel, creativeness and out-of-the box thinking in creating articles and news items for said events. Furthermore, she is very organized and detail oriented and when taking upon herself an assignment, is very meticulous in researching all aspects of the subject before commencing to write. She is adept at interviewing people in the academia both in Israel and the U.S. In addition, Ms. Akerman has superb writing and speaking skills in both Hebrew and English which was manifested in her writing articles and news announcements that were subsequently published in all the major print and on-line media in Israel (Haarets, DeMarker, Ynet news, NRG and more).
Lastly, Ms. Akerman is well connected with the local media and talk-show programs which, for us, was a big benefit when building an advertising and PR campaign.
I strongly recommend Ms. Akerman to any organization or individual who is interested in advancing their business image and branding their company.

בחרתי בך כיועצת התקשורת שלי, והפקדתי בידיך את היקר לי מכל - שמי הטוב ועתידי, ואני מאושרת על הבחירה הזו. את יועצת תקשורת מן השורה הראשונה: מקצוענית, מנוסה, בטוחה בעצמך אך פתוחה להקשיב, אסטרטגית, מובילה, ובקיצור כיאה להגדרתך שלך - מעצבת-על בבוטיק יחסי הציבור שלך.
