Launch of New Public Relations Agency, VoxPop Public Relations, LLC; Shannon Troughton Named 40 Under 40 by PR Week

A public relations firm has just opened its doors. Shannon Troughton, the former Vice President of Corporate Communications for WellPoint, has just started VoxPop Public Relations, LLC. VoxPop Public Relations is a strategic public relations agency that helps companies and organizations accelerate their growth, profitability, reputation and market presence through media relations, product launches, new media, events and promotions, messaging and media training, trade show support, and issues management.

Shannon Troughton was also named one of the 40 Under 40 by PR Week. Troughton has worked in PR for almost 20 years and has seen a need for more "boutique" PR agencies. She has a diverse background in the PR field and her new agency has topped her list of successes.

I think it is important to reconize people that have taken risks and seen them pay off. By starting her own PR agency in today's market, Troughton has demonstrated her ability to be successful in a tough market.
