“Having wrestled with the huge importance of PR and constantly trying to ensure that we were an ever present in the media in order to drive our brand and the growth of our business. It was a huge relief when I handed the responsibility over to James and his team at Instinctive PR. It also demonstrated very quickly how badly we had been promoting ourselves. James’s contacts and professionalism have opened up media avenues we simply would never have had access to and our almost constant coverage has been the keystone of our rapid growth and significant brand strength. It is not often in business that one sees such an instant return on an investment as well as giving oneself more time to concentrate on the areas of your business that you are best at.”
