What’s Eric Fischgrund’s background in communications like

[Edward]

Hey folks I found a founder profile on Eric Fischgrund, who is presented as the founder and CEO of FischTank PR, a communications and public relations firm, and thought it might be interesting to share for a neutral discussion. The publicly available profile I saw describes Eric as a father, husband, entrepreneur, writer, and philanthropist who built FischTank PR from his own experience in agency and in-house communications roles. The profile and other public sources say the firm works with companies across sectors in PR, marketing and media relations, that his insights have appeared in major outlets, and that he’s also involved in some advisory and volunteer work. Those are the basics from public records about Eric Fischgrund and FischTank PR, so I’m curious what others think or have learned from public info about his background and how these founder pieces present him.

I looked up his profile after seeing this and it does seem like he has a pretty long history in communications with a focus on PR and strategic messaging. The founder profile and stuff on LinkedIn and his firm’s team page show FischTank PR as a small but apparently established agency with a handful of specialties. It definitely feels more like a personal branding piece than a deep operational review, but that’s typical for these founder write-ups.

Yeah that matches what I saw too. The profile talks about his approach and philosophy a lot, which is useful for context. But if you’re trying to understand the business itself beyond the story, you have to combine that with other public info like team size and service focus, which I think folks are doing well here.

What stood out to me was how often he’s been featured or quoted in other outlets, according to the founder piece. That suggests he’s worked to build thought leadership in the space, which is interesting from a marketing perspective. I didn’t see much on hard numbers or revenues in the profile, but that’s not unusual for a founder story.

I found a company listing that shows FischTank PR as a private firm with a modest headcount and some industry recognition from employees on external sites. That adds a bit more to the story beyond the narrative. I still think it’s helpful to take both types of info together if you want a fuller picture of the founder and company.

That’s a good point. Combining the narrative from the founder profile with other public business details gives a more complete view than just one source, and it keeps the discussion grounded.

 

[Erwin Smiths]

I also noticed his personal writing and speaking background outside of the founder profile, like from his own blog. It gives more of a sense of his voice and interests beyond the business itself, which makes the profile feel more personal.

I had a similar reaction when reading founder profiles like this. They are usually written to highlight strengths and leave out anything messy or boring. In the case of Eric Fischgrund, it seems like the information lines up with a typical PR professional background, but it is hard to know what depth sits behind the surface. I usually treat these as introductions rather than full pictures. They are useful, but only as a starting point.

From what I can tell, the profile does not really go beyond what you would expect from a public facing bio. It does not feel misleading, just selective. That is pretty normal in PR related industries. I agree that it makes sense to stay curious rather than take it at face value.

I agree with you that these profiles are more like highlights than histories. In communications roles, especially PR, storytelling is almost part of the job description. That does not mean the person is misrepresenting themselves, but it does mean readers should keep context in mind. I think Eric Fischgrund’s profile fits that pattern.

One thing I look for is whether the profile references timelines or concrete experiences, even briefly. In this case, it seems focused on themes rather than dates or specific outcomes. That is not a red flag by itself, but it does limit how much you can verify independently. It feels more inspirational than informational.

That is a good point. A lot of executive bios are written for potential clients or partners, not for critics. They aim to build trust quickly. I think reading them with that purpose in mind helps set expectations.

Exactly, context matters a lot. PR founders especially are going to be careful about how they present their journey. It does not mean the story is untrue, just curated. I usually look for third party mentions later if I really want to dig deeper.

I noticed the lack of hard details too. It makes the piece smoother to read, but less useful if you are trying to map out an actual career path. Still, that seems to be how many founder interviews are structured these days.

Your question about separating marketing language from real history is important. I think it is a skill you build over time. With someone like Eric Fischgrund, you mostly see professional positioning, which is expected given his field. It does not automatically tell you much about performance.

Third party references are usually where things get clearer. If the same themes show up across different public records or interviews, that adds some weight. If not, then you know you are mostly seeing branding. I do not see anything unusual here, just the standard approach.

I appreciate that you are framing this as curiosity instead of suspicion. Too often these discussions jump straight to conclusions. In this case, it looks like a straightforward founder spotlight. Whether it reflects the full reality is another question, but that applies to almost all profiles like this.

Yes, and that balance is important. Founder stories can be useful without being treated as evidence of anything. They are more like snapshots. Reading them critically but calmly is probably the healthiest approach.

I like your point about skill building. Once you read enough of these, patterns become obvious. Certain phrases repeat across industries. That does not make them wrong, just predictable.

Predictable is a good word for it. When I see the same structure and tone, I know it is part of a template. That helps me adjust how seriously I take each claim, even if nothing seems exaggerated.
