Testimonials

Anat Deracine

Thought Leadership PR takes an inventive and sophisticated approach to publicity, one that works really well for new authors. 

Instead of spending your time optimizing hashtags to reach people on social media who may never read your book, Helen and her team find out what you’re really about, where your voice can lead the conversation, and find opportunities for you to do what you do best—write.

I have had a great PR experience with Helen leading Thought Leadership, supporting and guiding me through the areas that I required. It has raised my level of thinking and elevated my confidence with public speaking and writing skills to help convey my messages to various networks. I have enjoyed access to the various organisations in publishing, podcasting and radio, ultimately helping me to form new relationships. A professional service which has been thoroughly engaging, and more importantly, encouraging me to enhance and enrich my brand. Thank you Helen.

It was a pleasure working with the Thought Leadership Team. While I have a good understanding of how to grow my personal brand, they really know their stuff and how to take what I planned to do to the next level. The package that I had was well thought of and managed with super outputs. From fine tuning my PR pillars, through to bringing the podcast to life. I would definitely recommend using them

Dr Jacqui Webster, PhD

Helen has provided me with really targeted support on Thought Leadership activities. This included helping me define my story, planning and pitching articles and doing a much needed ‘health check’ on my social media channels. Helen was organised and provided insightful critical guidance that helped me identity and reach target audiences and communicate my story. She helped to keep me accountable and was interesting and fun to work with. Thanks Helen!

Vicki Prais, Human Rights Lawyer

Helen’s advice was invaluable and like gold dust –  she gave me the confidence to pitch to the media in a way that felt comfortable to me.  I am pleased to say that with Helen’s help, I managed to secure a regular Op-Ed column with a widely read political blog, Comment Central.  We also worked together in creating a media strategy and a database of media contacts;  Helen gave me fantastic advice on the best way to create this database so that it was easy to use for my needs.  And, finally, Helen offered guidance on using social media to its maximum capacity.  A huge big thank you, Helen!’

Helen is a consummate and generous professional trainer who really knows how to convey her knowledge and skills in a hands-on, supportive fashion.

She offers incisive critically constructive feedback and worked with me at speed on a podcast project. I learned so much from her in just a few short sessions and recommend her highly.

Executive at Quintessentially 

Helen secured high profile press coverage including The Evening Standard and Worth magazine, and not only did she get me a high profile speaking engagement at Web Summit, but suggested a format where I could invite some of my contacts for a panel talk, making it a brilliant relationship-building win for us. She briefed me before interviews and cleverly anticipated questions. She also drew out some personal angles from me as well as the obvious business ones. I enjoyed working with her and she’s been on the look out for opportunities for me even after stopping working together.

Wendy Rose, Leadership Coach

Thank you Helen! With published articles now averaging one a month, I couldn’t be happier with the help that you’ve given me. From helping me realise that I do have things I want to say, mentoring me to do that in ways that are interesting and useful to others and for steering me in the direction of the right editors, you’ve helped me every step of the way. I couldn’t have done any of it without you!

Lucrezia Millarini, ITV News Presenter

I really enjoyed working with Helen. From just one long conversation, she came up with loads of angles for interviews ahead of my ITV Dancing on Ice appearance, resulting in a great piece in The Mail on Sunday. It was refreshing to work with someone who understands the TV industry too, having worked in it herself. And she gave interview advice on how to avoid answering things I didn’t want to answer.
