Our Firm

Our approach

Regardless of the project, our general approach is consistent: we help ensure that our clients’ messages make an impact with the audiences they most need to reach. We do this by identifying and using tactics we know will be effective, delivered via channels the audiences trust. We measure results throughout, so we know what’s working, and can make adjustments if needed. And we operate with total transparency about the cost, which is determined upfront, so no one is surprised—except pleasantly—by the bill. This approach is rooted in the five pillars of our firm.

Five Pillars of Our Work

Deep knowledge

of the issues and audiences shaping health, healthcare and related sectors

Informed messaging

that shapes what we say and how we say it

Creative practicality

that results in tactics that best achieve goals

Impeccable client service

from nimble professionals who deliver timely results

Spirit of fun

that fosters joy in work and sharing with others

Our history

The roots of our firm go back nearly two decades when our president, Patrick McCabe, co-founded GYMR Public Relations. Over time, he and his business partner realized that the company they formed together looked very different from the teams each led independently. McCabe Message Partners opened in 2016, built on a strong reputation for understanding issues, mobilizing quickly and achieving results. The firm is comprised of 20+ team members who’ve worked together for years. We offer the expertise and professionalism of a large, international agency–with the warmth and passion of a small business.
