Establishing an Industry Leader
The client
An established boutique retail design consultancy that specialises in the cosmetics industry.
The challenge
When we began work, our client had two significant customers but was struggling to grow further.
The owner was concerned they had hit a ceiling within their current niche and would need to venture into new verticals to attract new business.
The result
- Consistent coverage in their target media
- An annual conference presentation that consistently delivered hot leads
- Closed contracts worth £100,000s including 7 from the niche they thought exhausted
Alex got under the skin of our company and enabled us to see it through the eyes of our customers. He helped me to realise that my experience had value and that people would be interested in what I had to say.

Establishing a World Leader
The client
The UK’s largest online sports betting business.
The challenge
Having cornered the online gambling market, our client was growing at a furious rate. The company had to pioneer new tech and ways of working to meet demand.
But, not an obvious career destination, recruiting the right people to drive this change was painfully slow.
The result
- Consistent coverage in top-tier trade media
- 1,000s of people recruited
- IT department has grown from a team of 200 to a business of over 3,000
- Company recognised as an industry leader
- CTO named one of top 20 most influential technology leaders in the country
You can see the measurable impact our PR programme has had at our new Manchester office. We opened fully expecting it to take a year to fill. Instead it only took 6 months.

Clim8
Establishing a Sector Leader
The client
The only investment platform to help consumers invest in companies 100% focused on tackling the climate crisis.
The challenge
The Clim8 team had built a good head of steam attracting people to register for its app. However, to grow their user base and the company, they understood the need to build their profile beyond their network.
Their first PR company, a specialist in the area of sustainability had not been able to produce the results the company demanded and so they had looked elsewhere.
The result
- 200 pieces of coverage in National and Trade media
- £10m in investment raised
Doing PR for an early-stage consumer startup is not straightforward. The team eased into the task immediately. Their drive was crucial to achieving excellent coverage, including The Sunday Telegraph & The Times. I would recommend them to any early or growth stage company that wants to achieve cut through with the media.

Divi
Establishing an Industry Influencer
The client
A leading decentralized payment ecosystem focused on bringing crypto to the masses.
The challenge
To be successful in the crypto industry, you have to be visible. Despite industry-leading technology and an active community, Divi was struggling to get noticed by investors and consumers.
The result
- 200 pieces of coverage in National, Business, & Trade media
- Results achieved with very little news
- Divi’s CEO consistently chosen to comment on important industry issues
- Ongoing articles on Nasdaq
- Reach in the millions
The PR campaign has really put Divi on the map. The coverage has been excellent but what I’ve really appreciated is how Alex and his team coverts my ideas into coverage. The profile has helped build our community and attract partners and investors.

Marlin Green
Establishing the Perfect Acquisition Opportunity
The client
One of the fastest growing tech recruitment companies in the UK.
The challenge
Having built a £multi-million technology recruitment business in less than a decade, the two dynamic owners of Marlin Green were ready to move on to their next challenge.
They wanted to build an edge that would help make them a mouth watering acquisition. Problem was, having done little marketing, the company had little profile.
The result
- Consistent coverage in top-tier trade and business media.
- A successful sale of the business
9mm has been instrumental in helping us to stand out from the crowd and position ourselves as the first choice for potential buyers.
