Public Relations:

Newsmaker PR works with a range of organisations – from the UK’s biggest retailer to SMEs. The same high quality of the service is provided to both big and small. The starting point for each PR campaign is to identify your objectives, create material which will engage your target audience and select the appropriate channels of communication to reach them.

Video Production:

The use of video has become increasingly vital as a key way to communicate with customers or stakeholders. Newsmaker PR and Video Production Ltd produces high quality and cost-effective films to fulfil the range of our clients’ needs. There is a selection of videos to view on the website as well as Newsmaker’s YouTube channel.

Media Training:

We are able to provide highly-effective training because we have been journalists and understand how newspapers and broadcasters work. We provide practical courses to prepare clients for radio and television interviews. We also offer legal training for clients using social media.

Crisis Management:

Unfortunately a problem could be just around the corner. To minimise the damage to a business’ reputation you need to be prepared with a plan of how you will communicate with the media if the “what if” ever happens. We provide advice and training to help you ensure a difficulty does not become a PR disaster.
