Public Relation Services

What is PR?

PR is an effective way to connect a wider audience to your brand. It’s about storytelling rather than advertising. PR is a long term way to invest in your business and keep people informed on who you are and what you’re doing.

Why should you use PR?

  • As a charity or organisation making a difference you have a unique story to tell. Your founder, staff, your products and start up are interesting to the media which can lead to a wide variety of press coverage.

  • A consistent on-going public relations campaign will help to build general awareness of your services and brand and will supplement your direct marketing and advertising programme.

  • When a consumer sees coverage of your charity through the media, it’s looked at differently to traditional advertising.

  • Having your charity or business endorsed in the media gains credibility for the brand.

  • Consumers are much more likely to get involved with a brand based on third party endorsements rather than advertising.

  • PR has the added value of establishing your brand and branding helps people to become familiar with your organisation.

  • Visibility will magnify your profile which may help you to secure more relationships with future customers and partnerships.
