TESTIMONIALS & MEDIA CASE STUDIES

"Thank you Peter. We rang you for some urgent advice on recommendation, and you were honest, helpful and ultimately prompt in delivering what we needed. It is much appreciated, and well worth the investment."

Terry Warren, jhai Limited, Dorset.

"Thank you to Peter of Red Alert Media, for responding so promptly to my late night text seeking some much needed advice, and to arranging to speak to me at such an unsociable hour this morning. And as ever, it was great advice and guidance."

Katie Dowell, The Reporter's Academy

"Hi Peter, thank you so much for recommending me to, and getting me onto Radio Northampton. I had a wonderful time and they were all so welcoming. I really enjoyed the experience and have had some very positive feedback from friends who listened to the programme. They have invited me back too!"

Sue Upton, The Orchid Group.

"Thank you so much to Red Alert Media for the work you did for us over six months. Your Press Releases were very good, very effective, and you clearly push all the right buttons, because your efforts put us on the front pages, earned us double page spreads, broadcast interviews, and high profile appearances on national TV and radio. You also gave us sound advice, and were very honest to deal with at all times. When I needed PR help, people told me to contact Red Alert Media, and having worked with you, I can see why you are held in high esteem."

Stephen Church, Church's China, Northampton.

"Peter - as a correspondent with a high profile news organisation, dealing with top quality PR people who know the business inside out, and know exactly what journalists need and want, makes life so much more agreeable. And you fulfil that brief - you have always been a pleasure to deal with because I know I'm dealing with someone who helps, not hinders. No wonder you get so many glowing testimonials, not just from clients, but from journalists too. Keep up the good work, and I hope Red Alert Media continues to go from strength to strength."

Jon Terrett, Washington Correspondent, al Jazeera English.

"The Red Alert Media team are right up there among the very best PR people I deal with. No doubt about that whatsoever. Peter, you and your team are extremely reliable, your experience means you know exactly what the media need from you, you give us great ideas, and are extremely helpful organising interviews and filming. Because of that, you make our life so much easier. I don't jump through hoops when I deal with you, I jump for joy, because I am dealing with very professional and reliable people!!"

Mike Bushell, Presenter and Reporter, BBC Breakfast

"Peter, many thanks for your contribution to the media and PR activity for the Archery World Cup Grand Final in Edinburgh. It was fantastic having you on board - you're hard working, pro-active, energetic, and a fantastic source of good copy, which the media lapped up, and did wonders for putting our event on the map.

"Because of the experience and support you provided, it gave me the time to pitch all the good stories you were supplying, and between the two of us, I think it's fair to say we raised the profile of the event way beyond expectations. You're a real pro, and having worked with you, I can see why you're held in such high esteem by so many people. Great work!"

Paddy Cuthbert, Podge Publicity, Scotland. Tel: 07968 699636

"Having you guys on board was as good as it gets. A fantastic performance with the phenomenal editorial coverage you achieved for us over four months, giving our show enormous profile, as reflected in the interest from the public. You also served as the equivalent of an insurance policy in the way you dealt with one or two little local difficulties that could have proved troublesome and unhelpful, but you were on the case as quick as a flash. It proved beyond doubt that you know your business inside out, and also command the respect of the people you deal with."

Jill Roach, Stage Right Productions.

"What a fantastic job you guys did with the publicity for Peter Pan at The Deco. Absolutely phenomenal - in three months the publicity generated in and around Northamptonshire by you and your team became the talk of the town. No stone was left unturned in the search for a PR and media opportunity, you complimented and supported our marketing strategy brilliantly, and the audiences that flocked through the doors during the show's run were a testimony to your efforts. Fantastic job, well done, and it was a pleasure working with you."

Steve Bishop, Beach Marketing

"Thanks for a fantastic media training day - very informative, with excellent advice and instruction from people who clearly know their subject inside out. And not only did we learn a lot, we all had a great laugh too, which was a bonus! I will now tell all my clients how good you guys are."

Ben Keith, Managing Director, Star Sports.

"We really appreciate what you send in to us, and we know that when you send out a Press Release it comes with a full understanding of what we're looking for, it is very well written, and that you send it on merit. Because of that, your copy is very easy to turn round and send out as a news story, and it therefore keeps you ahead of the game."

The Press Association sportsdesk

"Can I just thank you very much for the recent media training days you did with us. Great stuff: you made it interesting, informative and fun. The feedback has been fantastic, and now we all look forward to reaping the benefit of what we learnt from you."

I really appreciate it, and thank you so much."

But getting me on Radio 5 Live so quickly and easily the other day was your star turn so far - it just proves you have the contacts, the trust of the media you deal with, and, most importantly, that all of you at Red Alert Media really know what you're doing. I'm a very satisfied customer!"
