Marketing Communications

Marketing Communications

With more than five years' experience writing about the media, marketing and advertising industries before moving into PR, I have close ties to trade and business media. In the past seven years, I have built a wide and strong base of relationships with the reporters that matter to your business. I know what sort of stories they are looking for and can help build your profile within the industry.

Writing & editing

Press releases, blog pieces, website copy, awards entries and opinion pieces are all within scope.

Talk to the media

The trade press is a highly competitive space. I can liaise with the media on your behalf and have a solid sense of what they are looking for.

Consultation

Allow me to share my knowledge of the industry landscape with you.
