<\/span><\/h2>\nI am a freelance PR consultant for hire in London, with 8 years experience in the tech, mobile, government, charity and startup sectors. I started my PR career in financial PR, before moving from Technology PR to Digital PR, before finally working as a freelance PR consultant.<\/p>\n
I offer a wide range of PR consultancy services, from strategy and media relations through to measurement and training. Though based in London and often work with client’s in their offices, I run PR campaigns for organisations across the world.<\/p>\n
My approach to PR consultancy is to provide an honest, flexible and results-driven service.<\/p>\n
<\/span>How I can help you:<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n\n- Create a comprehensive PR and Communications strategy that will get you results that positively affect your bottom line<\/li>\n
- Craft your company’s messaging to cut-through the noise and get noticed by influencers<\/li>\n
- Create contact lists of which journalists and media you need to speak to<\/li>\n
- Draft press releases that get picked up by the top-tier titles and key publications in your sector<\/li>\n
- Develop content marketing strategies to enhance your earned media activites<\/li>\n
- Train you and your colleagues in how to run your own PR campaigns and activities<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/span>How I can work with you:<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n\n- On a project basis (one-off projects lasting from a few weeks to a few months) or on a retained basis (ongoing work with an agreed notice period)<\/li>\n
- Under my own name (Montfort – the boutique PR agency I run) or under your company name (perfect for PR agencies looking for support)<\/li>\n
- In your office (I appreciate that sometimes you want your consultant to be seen and work directly with your team) or remotely (that said, I do sometimes like to work from home)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/span>My experience as a freelance PR consultant includes:<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\nLondon 2012, Just Giving, American Express, the Financial Times, World Wildlife Federation, HarperCollins, O2 and many more.<\/p>\n
I have achieved coverage for clients in publications including the Financial Times, The Guardian, The Daily Telegraph, Real Business, Third Sector magazine, Mashable, Evening Standard and many more.<\/p>\n
