Shape the news with agility and impact
Build and nurture your health and life science organisation’s media relations function with a trusted partner
Many organisations, from large corporates to research bodies and patient charities make basic mistakes when trying to bring wider public attention to their work.
When it comes to engaging with the media, the good news is that these are easily fixable. The basic techniques and approaches that I can equip you with can make the difference between your disease awareness campaign getting prominent broadcast coverage and your press release ending up in the junk folder of a reporter's swelling inbox.
Bolstering your press office
I've worked with companies and third sector organisations to create and nurture an effective media relations structure that strengthens their reach with reporters, producers and editors.
As a former news reporter, features writer and sometime magazine editor, I can help you pierce through the shell of a crowded email inbox and how to build momentum that allows you tell a story that develops as your organisation evolves.
Keeping the plates spinning
Beyond the basics of getting journalists' attention, the work of running a press office can generate hundreds of small, urgent tasks, all vying for attention. Ensuring comments and reactive statements are signed off by the right stakeholders quickly, while balancing press deadlines, embargoes and background briefings means that many plates need to be kept spinning at the same time.
By working with you to create a system to manage these competing priorities in the most efficient way, I can help you ensure your key messages reach the right audiences at the right time.
