Freelance PR & Marketing Consultant
Pure.
April 2012 - April 2015: Freelance PR & Marketing Consultant
As a freelance marketing consultant I worked with a number of different companies across a variety of sectors. I have tended to work with companies where I feel they could really benefit from my help and whose business has increased through the work we have carried out.
Pure, Moscow
Pure is a new dating app aimed at encouraging people to use technology to develop offline relationships. After creating engaging copy for Pure's website and social media channels, an initial PR campaign saw coverage on many of the biggest technology websites and a number of national newspapers. A marketing campaign was also developed to target key market sectors. This resulted in over 200,000 downloads of the app, with this figure growing daily.
Oken Studios, Coventry
Oken Studios are the developers of an interactive bedtime storybook app aimed at children learning to read. This project is ongoing, but so far has seen us develop an online marketing campaign, utilising PR and Marketing to create a positive online buzz around the app. Since the launch of the app sales have consistently increased month on month.
Death Trap Rally, London
A relatively new project, Death Trap Rally is a European road rally. A recent launch party resulted in coverage in a number of key music magazines as well as an in-depth feature on The Sun's website. Work has been ongoing to develop the brand
Other clients I have worked with include
Sub Zero Ice Arena, Cleveleys
Indian Connect, Swindon
Variety, The Children's Charity, Blackpool
Voucher Packs, Blackpool
Pretty Digits, Berlin
Thirty30 Media, Wesham
