Face-to-face with media friends again!
The history of the “press conference” has taken various forms over the many years that I have been in this friendly, relationship-based PR world.

I love my company and what we do but how and where do I get others to love it too??” This is where the services of an “outside” person, friend or […]

How to select the perfect marketing match for you
Life is all about making choices – if we are lucky – and we make many each day even if we don’t realise it! It got me thinking that some are quick and subconscious. I am not sure why I picked coffee and not tea at ten today. Why did I buy the blue dungarees […]
