Why do I need PR?
Nothing builds credibility like getting featured in the media.
It clearly tells people about your expertise.
PR boots your SEO - and is a free way to promote your business.
It also gives you useful, regular content for your social media.

About me
I grew up in rural North Yorkshire and from an early age I knew that I wanted to write for a living.
I went on to work as a journalist in regional and national newspaper newsrooms, including a few years in London and Brighton.
Now back in Yorkshire, I help PR clients to get featured in national titles like The Daily Telegraph, Hello!, The Sun and Saga online.
Plus regional publications such as The Yorkshire Post, Yorkshire Businesswoman and Yorkshire Life - among many others!
The impact of this PR for clients has been huge, attracting more clients, invites for TV and podcast interviews - and boosting sales.
“From the very first discovery call, we could tell Linda is a true professional.
Linda takes pride in her work and her passion in delivering the best possible quality for her clients.”
