From blue sky thinking to green solutions

Marketing and PR Consultancy

Before change is introduced it is vital to appropriately engage stakeholders at every stage – be they employees, clients, local residents, suppliers or public sector authorities.

The promotion of organisations in the new low carbon economy requires a paradigm shift in thinking and understanding – combining marketing and PR skills with a mind-set that ‘gets it’.
Our ability to empathise with those who may be concerned about, or affected by, environmental change has given us a unique edge in being able to prepare, or represent, our clients throughout the change process.

We have on board campaign-winning political experts, award-winning journalists, marketing specialists and cutting edge professional marketing and design personnel who share our ethical and environmental values.

We deliver astounding results and a best value approach to:

• Stakeholder involvement
• Corporate imaging and branding
• Marketing & Advertising
• PR & Public Affairs
• Communication and publications
• Media Skill & News Awareness Training
• Paradigm shifts in a low carbon economy

Marketing and PR is not just about advertising and reacting – it’s about laying out the agenda in such a way that you persuade people to support your view. This is as true for the environment, and its impact on your business, as it is for any other aspect of your operation.
