Thank you for the recent coverage which we have had in particular. We are delighted to have had so many stories in the press with such a strong range of subjects. Thank you for your continued work.

Thank you for respecting copyright and for your support of the newspaper industry.

Just wanted to say thanks for the photo of the Editorial Group that you took for the front of the next issue of TrustNews. It will be a fabulous cover.

We were recommended Marketing Projects as an organisation that could work with us to launch Chester Performs in Spring 2007 and handle public and press relations beyond this.

The launch event was a big success with press and multimedia there. We’d aimed for 40 attendees and 44 came, 40% of our invited guests, a mix of interested dignitaries and the key arts and performance professionals across the North West. Marketing Projects was responsible for all liaisons with guests and the press, their attendance and the running of the event. It went very smoothly and we received much praise afterwards.

Their PR activities following covered two areas for us; our programme of events and the new Performing Arts Centre planned for the city, a sensitive development project. We were particularly pleased with the front page, in depth article in the Chester Chronicle for the revised plans for the new Centre. Also, their ability to gain local press coverage, often at short notice, to maximise event attendance. They use their own photos too, which saves costs.

From 2009 we will have our own in-house PR function with a new strategy manager, a measure of Marketing Projects’ ability to demonstrate the importance of PR. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone who needed effective PR and marketing support.

Breath of fresh air, really got to know our business quickly, fun to work with, help & support on strategic issues as well as great coverage … but it’s a bit deeper than that. It seems to me that we have a partnership and there is a real cultural fit. Take the visit from Housing Minister Caroline Flint; it would not have been as effective without Marketing Projects. We are all working for our customers and communities and you certainly understand that, contributing to our strategic growth. And yes, the coverage and its content is great!

“I am using a company “Marketing Projects” for this press launch project. They came recommended by VNU."

“Another major contract we wouldn’t have without your help……Real value for money”

“Hi, thanks for all your help. It was really very helpful. We have had about 6 fairly promising responses. In particular at least 10 companies came to a workshop following the mail drop. This is about a 10% response, certainly more than I expected. It was much better value than any other form of advertising. In particular the work you did finding contact names no doubt boosted interest enormously. If I put on a further workshop I will use your services rather than any other medium. In addition we plan to repeat the mail drop at regular intervals covering other areas. We will definitely go with the same format, your team finding the relevant contacts and then following up.”

“The relaunch parties (2 evenings as we had such a great response) were a great success.”

“Thanks very much – you’ve covered pretty much everything I’m looking for. I wish everyone was like you… if it’s ok to quote from your mail, I’ll just do that and maybe give you a shout later this week if there’s anything I’m unsure about. Thanks again!”

“Marketing Projects has been working with EXi telecoms since 1997 when they were asked to work on press relations for EXi telecoms. They also helped with our early brochures and adverts and our presence at the TMA exhibition in Brighton. I joined EXi telecoms in 2000 and Marketing Projects has continued press and public relations work for us, also assisting us as an external consultant for the new global web site launched during 2000.

We have found their advice and services to be invaluable, using their copywriting skills to help win over 12 awards during 2001/2 and their web site for enhanced contact with the media. We have relied on their skills to keep us both in and out of the media which they have achieved well. Memorable occasions included high profile contract wins, world-wide office launches, training scheme initiatives and award wins.

We look forward to future business together."

“Just a quick note to say thank you very much to you and your team for all your work with the Warrington Case Studies. We are delighted with the end result and feel that the work fits the brief originally asked for completely. Work was kept very close to the brief and the results were achieved on time! We also appreciated being kept up to date on progress. The article for Vodafone is exactly what we are looking for and there are some great quotes in there.
Once again many thanks and should we need to complete any work similar to this in the future we will not hesitate to contact you.”

“Marketing Projects quickly established a close and effective partnership with us. They helped establish an early campaign to build relations with MPs and achieved an excellent response rate. At the same time they worked proactively to establish PSP as a source of sound media comment and achieved an excellent position for us with national press and radio; without their skills we would have taken far longer and would probably never have achieved a comparable position.

Our thanks to the Team at Marketing Projects for all their help and support – your expertise undoubtedly led directly to our success."

“Since Marketing Projects has become involved in marketing and pr activities with Urban Hair we have seen a tremendous upsurge in the amount of customers coming through the doors and our profile has gone up within the city. We’ve achieved great coverage within the local newspapers and have managed to get a regular column. Also, nationally we’ve got good coverage in industry magazines and recently Urban Hair was down to the final two choices for a major television series thanks to Marketing Projects’ hard work and persistence.”

“It’s a first for us and it’s great!”

“Having been in business for more than 18 years, Marketing Projects is the best public relations company we have used. Marketing Projects has gained more coverage for us since we started using them than we have had in the past five years.”

“Hi Jane, I’ve just had an e-mail from the Sunday Times telling me that The Best Of has achieved a place on the 2007 Sunday Times/Microsoft Tech Track 100. This is great recognition for everyone involved in the Best Of – and that includes you. Thank You.”

“Did you see the piece go out last night? It was fantastic I thought. Thanks very much to you and all your team for their help, made it into a really good item.”

Thanks for all this, good job. My technical partner Steve, who thinks all marketing is wishy-washy nonsense, actually said he was very impressed with the job you did! I guess you would have to know him to realize the full weight of the compliment.
