The socially-conscious publicist that believes you either do it with heart, or not do it at all. Niki Papaioannou is the business founder of “Niki Inc” a Toronto based publicity firm. A mom of two, a survivor and a philanthropist. Niki is always incorporating a non profit approach to 20% of Niki Inc. lead PR initiatives. It is through these initiatives that Niki Inc. works with superstars and entrepreneurs who want to improve the state of the planet and tell their unique story. Niki Inc. supports the BIPOC community through her employment selections and her work on with Foodpreneur Lab.
Niki Papaioannou spent over ten years in senior marketing roles with a focus on the casual dining/restaurant sector where she honed her passion for food and storytelling into successful publicity strategies and marketing campaigns. Her collaborative approach of knowing who the audience was and speaking to them in their own vernacular garnered Niki great acclaim within the industry. Not one to stand on her laurels, Niki took extensive media relations training while working at these North American restaurant chains and decided after ten amazing years that it was time to branch out on her own.
In her first year of business with a focus on superstars and representing brands for conscious good, she had two clients hire her to help announce their departure from the Canadian Football League and into the Canadian political scene. Niki worked on this announcement and saw it go viral for a 24 hour period. Her phone rang non-stop from various media outlets and prospective clients. Year one landed Niki Inc. earning six figures.
Niki has worked on campaigns with NBA superstar Cory Joseph and with MLB superstar Edwin Encarnación. She also had the privilege of working with NHL Hall of Famers Lanny McDonald, Darryl Sittler, Ron Ellis, and the late Johnny Bower on a major publicity event for the beloved Tim Hortons brand at The Hockey Hall of Fame location in Toronto. She was invited to be a contributing author in a business book “Business Hacks: Growth Secrets They Don’t Want You to Know” BOOK 2 released in 2021.
