We are an agency which offers something different from the status quo.
We believe every business, every expert, every founder, has a story to tell and an opinion worth amplification. Sometimes those with the most important things to say don’t have the means to say it. That’s a story our founder deeply understands and it drives us daily.
Agencies often churn out unworthy content in the hope that something will stick. We take a different approach, with a 100% success rate for publication of our content in 15 years of working. How? By using journalistic principles to extract the stories from your business that will interest the editors of those publications you want to be in.
So you’ll find we don’t like wasting time. We’ll help you quickly find the right audience, in line with your business strategy, determine which publications they read and help you connect with them effectively.
Ultimately, we want to give a voice to the voiceless – creating a confident public persona for companies who lack the necessary knowledge of media relations; or to support disruptive innovators in gaining market presence among their larger, legacy competitors.
In the process we’re turning the tables on our own industry – giving PR a good name among the business community with a customer-focused, innovative model based on quality of service delivery.
We’re not about feathering our own nest. We believe it’s in everyone’s interests – ours, yours and our contacts in the press – to tell you honestly what will work with the media and, crucially, what won’t. Most agencies won’t do that for you.
We understand business because we’ve lived it – most of our team run companies of their own, so they understand the importance of efficiency and productivity. We’re old hands – we’ve all worked in the press before and we’re experts in turning complex ideas into compelling copy.
Our insistence on quality has given us a 100% success rate of publication in more than a decade of operating. We know business owners want to work with the best people, not junior staff. Our flat structure ensures you deal with experts, not graduates.
People buy reputations, and we’d argue that word-of-mouth publicity, generated by good PR activity, is the most powerful form of marketing there is.
For companies looking to engage in a major way we’ll create a constant stream of high-level publicity in business, trade and national media.
However we know that not everyone has the budget for a big retainer, so we’ve carefully developed packages to suit all requirements.
These can start with training sessions with your marketing executives, options for pure media relations where we re-purpose your create content, through quarterly efforts.
Whatever you need, we can help.
We have worked with The HR Dept since 2014, helping grow their business and raising their profile as an advocate for the concerns of SMEs regarding the modernising workplace and employment regulations.
The work we’ve done exemplifies the essence of what we’re about – helping smaller business punch above their ‘weight’, although why can’t SMEs have opinions just as viable and influential as the big corporates?
We believe that if the opinions are sound and the message needs to be heard, we have the contacts and experience to help you change the conversations that matter.
We’ve worked with some of the largest, fastest growing companies in the South West, down to micro businesses and start-ups – with a consistent level of quality and dedication to getting results for our clients. We’re proud of who we work for and what we’ve achieved for them, and you can see some of it here.
Of course every business is unique, with their own things to say and with set-ups which need particular marketing and communications solutions. We thrive on the variety of helping organisations with their own challenges. We’ve worked across the spectrum and are confident we can help you too.
We don’t do greenwash. We genuinely care about the planet we’re going to leave behind for our children, so we do what we can to minimise our carbon usage and we seek to work with businesses which are trying to do something good for the world we live in.
Working virtually means a drastic reduction in our carbon footprint but we have no choice but to travel occasionally, to see clients around the UK.
To mitigate this impact, Turn the Tables is proud to be a member of Offset Earth which means our entire personal and business carbon footprint is offset, through global tree planting programmes.
So far, we’ve had 563 trees planted on our behalf in the mangroves of Madagascar. Work with us, and you can contribute to our forest too.
You might need urgent crisis management, a long-term strategy for PR and comms, or anywhere in between. We have the flexibility to provide services immediately, for quick projects or sustained campaigns. Let’s have a no obligations talk first up. Drop us a line and we’ll be in touch shortly.
