Corporate reputation
Messaging
Here’s a challenge for you. Answer the following questions instantly in no more than five words:
* What does your company do?
* What key messages are you trying to get across?
* What are your brand values?
If you found that hard then we need to have a chat. You will have no joy in getting your point across if you can’t put it simply. And I hope you didn’t answer any of the above with the three most overused (and therefore meaningless) claims of quality, trust or innovation. You can do better than that!
We can help you stand out in a crowd and generate buzz so that people will want to know more about your company, your products and your services. And if what you do is complicated, don't worry. We can help people understand exactly what you do... because if people don’t “get it”, then you aren’t telling it the right way.
Industry issues
It’s not just about what you say, it’s also about when and how you say it.
Discussing key issues and breaking news in your industry can be a good way to grab headlines, so long as you avoid the pitfalls. It’s a fine line: you have to say something interesting and controversial, or no one will pay attention. But you don’t want to get into hot water by angering competitors or – even worse – potential partners.
We can help you prepare opinion pieces on hot topics so that the media see you as a useful commentator. We’ll also make sure that when a story breaks you’re heard at the right time… and in the right way.
Industry events
Industry events can be great places for your company’s news and products to make a splash.
But on the ground these events are hectic and confusing, with hundreds of attendees rushing from stand to stand - seemingly at random! It’s all too easy to get lost in the noise. Which events should you attend? And what should you do when you get there? How can you make links with partners, customers, journalists and analysts?
Forward planning is essential. By liaising with the key journalists and analysts, we can make sure that you are seen by the right people, that your message has impact and that an industry event delivers a tangible ROI for your company.
