Targeted media lists based on trusted, relevant relationships.
Our PR team are experts in building media relations and tailoring successful PR strategies for businesses of every size in any sector.
We’ll create bespoke media lists for each piece of content we outreach for you, building on our existing relationships to ensure we reach the correct contact at each publication, whether it be a trade, local, national or international publication.
We’ll also provide you with clear and concise coverage reports along the way, so you can clearly see the successes we’ve had and the impact it’s had on your brand.
Your news in front of the right people, at the right time.
Our PR team have built up a variety of contacts, and gained industry knowledge, over the years. So when we put together press releases for you, we ensure they consist of two main components to guarantee success.
Firstly, we create engaging content. We’re natural storytellers, and we know how to put together a compelling press release.
Secondly, we personalise distribution. To achieve mass coverage we only send out press releases to relevant contacts.
Press releases for product launches, new appointments and event announcements can, and do, pick up great coverage across trade, regional and local publications.
A tiered approach to local, national and trade PR.
Our PR services cover three different tiers of publications, to gain you valuable coverage and exposure:
- Local press – We target media on a local level to inform the community about your business and its services.
- National press – We work closely with established and new contacts to secure national titles.
- Trade press – By targeting niche and trade-focused publications, we can expose your brand to the right audience.
Whether you want to target a specific industry, improve your local profile or raise national awareness, our PR professionals will help you achieve your goal by securing coverage in any, or all, of these three tiers.
More than just foundational PR
Outside of foundational PR activity, such as newsjacking and product launches, we also run quarterly campaigns that are geared towards gaining top tier and industry-focussed coverage. We can:
- Reduce the reliance on business and product updates and newsjacking
- Share different data sets and tailor campaigns based on the type of publishers we want to target
- Adapt press releases based on the current news agenda or other factors
