PR for brilliant businesses
PR that gets results
Want to get people talking about your business when you’re not in the room?
Build trust and credibility in your brand?
Attract new clients - and boost your SEO?
Based in York, I’m a trained journalist and PR specialist for small businesses.
Who I help
With more than 25 years’ experience, I’ve worked as a staff journalist for regional and national newspapers, and written for The Guardian, Daily Telegraph and Metro.
I support a wide range of businesses with their PR across Yorkshire and the UK - everyone from physiotherapists and artists to restaurant owners and employee engagement consultants.

PR clients featured in...
• National titles like The Daily Telegraph, Hello!, House Beautiful and The Sun, among others.
• Regional publications - Yorkshire Life magazine, The Yorkshire Post, York Press and Sussex Living magazine.
• Industry magazines - The HR Director, People Management and HR Magazine.
Business owners I’ve worked with have also been interviewed on national and regional BBC radio. This has directly resulted in them signing up new clients, and also getting invited as guests on TV and podcasts.
“We’ve seen a spike in new customers following all the media attention.”

“Linda demystified the complex world of PR.
She is incredibly well connected with editors. Within a day of submitting a pitch to the Yorkshire Post, I was scheduled for an interview. That led to a full feature article (with a front cover mention!). It not only gave my business incredible visibility, I gained a huge amount of confidence to reach out to editors.”
