STRATEGIC PUBLIC RELATIONS

Strategic public relations is a means to understand and influence relationships and behaviour - to gain trust and affect change. PR is more than a press release: it is expertise in communications in all its aspects, including understanding socio-economic factors, listening, storytelling, and an understanding of the pros and cons of potential communications channels.

 

EVENTS & ACTIVATIONS

Finding identity in new or changing neighbourhoods can be made easier with arts, cultural, and creative partnerships. From one-off event production to programmatic activations, consider how you can find means to bring to life your brand through initiatives or events that have the potential to deliver added value through lasting impact.

 

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT

Meaningful, open-minded engagement and partnership working is not a short-term exercise that concludes with the submission of a planning application or some other quick win. True and sincere engagement propagates lasting social value. Jennifer’s experience lies in finding common ground and realising opportunities for co-creation.

 

DIGITAL EXPERIENCE

People in the UK spend up to five hours a day accessing the internet, and two of those hours are spent on social media. How do your stakeholders engage with your brand online? A well-considered digital and social strategy will align with your corporate objectives. If a high-quality digital experience isn’t one of your communication priorities, why not?

INSIGHT & THOUGHT LEADERSHIP

Whether you are looking to cement your place in your market, or forge a path in a new one, thought leadership will help make your voice heard. By demonstrating expertise and original thinking you will be able to engage with the people that matter most to you. Consider how a new collection of essays or a unique piece of research could help communicate your company’s unique proposition.

 

CONTENT & COPYWRITING

Stringing sentences together is harder than it looks. No piece of content is too big or too small, whether you’re looking for copywriting, scripting, or editing Jennifer can support you in producing podcasts, video, coffee table books, print and digital brochures, and even annual reports.
