Media knowledge

A decade spent talking to journalists means there are more than a few on my Christmas card list. I’m in regular contact with influential writers on the UK national press, having kept on top of the news agenda and learnt what makes them tick. I’m contacted daily by respected writers and broadcasters looking for everything from case studies and competition prizes to exclusive feature angles and press trip partners. And I ‘have the ear of’ many an experienced journalist, meaning ideas can be tested before they’re taken forward.

The global network

I have friends in far places and can often call upon their expertise to generate an impact on the other side of the world, if that’s what your brand needs. It’s all part of the service – use me, use my network.
