Who We Are

McNeely Brockman Public Relations (MBPR) is a Nashville-based communications firm overseen by father-daughter duo Mark McNeely and Kelly Brockman, both veterans of years of media relations, strategic planning, crisis communications, social media and community outreach. MBPR was spun out of MP&F Strategic Communications, the state’s largest independent, locally-owned public relations and communications firm which McNeely founded in 1987. Since opening our doors five years ago, we have provided award-winning public relations, communications and branding services to dozens of clients. Our leadership was recently bolstered with the addition of Leigh Lindsey, an award-winning 16-year veteran of the public relations industry.

Our capabilities are varied and broad with strengths in media relations – both analog and digital – content creation, high-level strategic communications planning driven by well prepared and accurate research, community engagement and grassroots activations. Our competitive advantage is very simple – we know Nashville and the news media. Our teams’ backgrounds in print and broadcast journalism, government and political campaigns is unparalleled in Nashville.

MBPR is certified as a Small Business Enterprise (SBE) and Women Business Enterprise (WBE) with Metro Nashville Government, as well as the state of Tennessee.
