Salwen Business Communications (SBC) is a small,
full-service, hands-on marketing Public Relations and
Communications Counseling firm.
We like it that way.  

It lets us build close, enduring relationships with clients in many
industries and professions, and to know everything we do is designed
to support and help them achieve their core business objectives.

To our clients, we're not just another supplier. We're part of their team
— a value-added partner, never more than a phone call away and
dedicated  to getting their message across, their way, to their critical
marketplaces.

Our clients are located across the country; most are professionals
working in the sciences or in the high technology sectors of the
economy, such as engineers, technology developers, environmental
scientists, transportation and infrastructure specialists.

We also represent authors and publishers, arts groups and nonprofit
organizations, sometimes on a pro-bono basis.

Without hype or spin, we improve their bottom line by helping them
stand out from the crowd and win recognition for their successes.

Peter's 1989 nonfiction
book
Upper West Side

York Times as “a delightful
romp through time and
space.” His second book,
Galapagos: The Lost
Paradise (Bantam-
Doubleday-Dell), sold over
300,000 copies in six
languages.

In 2001, after 11 years in
our original Fifth Avenue
offices, SBC converted to
a “virtual company” format,
letting us reduce costs for
our clients while making
the best use of today's
online technologies.
