What our clients say:

The Manufacturing Institute

“The media training course was a valuable experience that gave me a powerful insight not only into the media world but also into my own personal development. The group dynamics were excellent and all delegates were made to feel relaxed and able to contribute to the interactive, well structured sessions. We had some great fun along the way too.”

Chris Beadsworth, commercial director, The Manufacturing Institute

 

 

Andy Bounds Ltd

“I just wanted to drop you a line to thank you for the help and guidance You've given me. It has made a huge difference to how I work and has significantly benefited my business already. When we worked together on your media training course, three things jumped out at me: Firstly, the advice you gave was superb. All those hints and tips and techniques were so helpful. Secondly, the way the course ended was brilliant.

 

“You gave such clear guidance on what to do next to make the best use of this newly acquired knowledge.so few trainers give you such clarity of direction. Thank you. Thirdly, and most importantly, you absolutely care what happens to me regarding the media. Your dedication to, and interest in, my media career means a lot to me. I would absolutely recommend anyone who wants to 'maximise the media' to help them improve their business results to come on your course. It was, quite simply, brilliant!”

Susan Woodward OBE

“Watching your BAFTA winning footage of the tragic story of the Chinese cockle pickers moved me to tears. You achieved a great thing with your dedication, tenacity and talent. To make millions of people remember the victims, fathers, brothers, sisters and wife rather than anonymous people was important to their devastated families - and to the viewers.

 

“Elaine, you made the Government rethink its position and may have safeguarded future lives. You made my heart swell with pride. Congratulations on all your awards, but in particular in making TV history with the first BAFTA win for a regional news programme. Your contemporaries now have a mighty challenge. With my greatest respect and affection.”

Susan Woodward OBE

“I worked with Richard both as my client while I was running my own PR agency Stripe, and later at Paver Smith, the agency I sold Stripe to, when Richard came on board as a member of the senior team. Richard is professional, organised, thorough and enlightened in his approach to handling clients and cares about helping them meet their objectives. His work is high quality; he's engaging and highly credible. He remains interested and curious while bringing experience to the table, both to be valued in a senior practitioner.”

Advanced Hearing Services Ltd

Without you to undertake the management of our campaign and to offer an excellent marketing and design service, we would have found the process to be too time consuming for our existing workload. As it was, communication was easy, the design was excellent and the campaign went from concept to execution without a hitch.”

Your professionalism and positive, uplifting nature makes working with you a real pleasure.”

“I wish to express my complete satisfaction in the editorial you wrote for me for a recent advertisement feature in the Bolton Evening News. As you are aware, I am no great lover of advertising from past experience and have had nothing but negative results. From your article I obtained around £8,000 worth of new business. The quality and success of your work has changed my view of advertising, proving it isn’t where you advertise, but how you word your advertisement. Once again, many thanks for the quality of your work.”

Allan Lever, Proprietor

 

 

Abbfab Service Ltd.

“Abbfab Services Ltd. identified the need to develop a marketing strategy and action plan to enable them to promote their business. Richard Lynch initially undertook very thorough research and compiled a detailed strategic market research report. Several meetings were then held with Richard, and we were impressed with his knowledge of his field and the quality of the reports and information he provided. As a result of these discussions Richard produced a detailed marketing strategy and action plan which addressed all the issues which had been previously identified. This Marketing plan will prove invaluable in assisting Abbfab Services to raise market awareness and generate new business enquiries.”

The result was a well presented, coherent and effective marketing strategy based around our initial criteria.”
