“I have worked with many PR companies and PR experts over the years. I can honestly say that Kate Slater is the most professional and on the ball PR expert I have ever worked with. Kate is not only extremely personable and easy to talk to, she is highly efficient, turning around work on time and to a very high standard which in turn has meant the benefit to our business had been instant. The main outcome we have had from using Kate's services is the most important bit, the results. We have had fantastic coverage in a range of publications. Yes we need a good product and service to feature but you also need the relationships with those publications and the writing skills to capture the journalist's imaginations. I look forward to continue to work with Kate.”

“Kate has proved a dream.”
Bob Duff, Event Manager, Lambton Castle, County Durham, March 2011

“I've really enjoyed working with Kate Slater and found her to be so professional and supportive in her approach. She has helped me to make contacts that I wouldn’t otherwise have and has followed up on contacts that I didn’t have time to follow up. Kate has been so creative in the way she's adapted the media opportunities to bring out the best in Lindy Jazz. From our initial meeting to our final project, Kate has been been clear about my aims for the PR campaign and has brought me far more coverage than initially expected. When looking for a top PR consultant for my next campaign, I will not need to think twice!”

“My PR work is essential to the growth of my business. I previously used a journalist to write Press Releases on my behalf, but found the publishing success was lower than I expected. Earlier this year I decided to find an experienced and effective agency to work on my behalf. Kate Slater's details were given to me by recommendation, which I feel is so important when trying to find an individual to work on your behalf and be a mouthpiece for my business. Having interviewed 3 PR agencies in the process, Kate had a very full understanding of my market and my personal needs at interview, and came in at a more reasonable price of the other major contender in the process. I chose Kate based on her experience and her achievements as well as her personality. She is a perfect voice for my business and writes eloquently & concisely.

The proof is in the pudding- with 6 BBC radio appearances in 6 months, and as many press releases with most going to print in local and National press I can say that I have found a perfect partner to work with as part of my marketing strategy. She has become an intrinsic part of my team, & ensures that I stay focused on my PR work with regular updates and prompts for actions that I need to take. Most Highly Recommended!”

“Northumberland Tourism consider the press launch of Doxford Cottages to be a model example of tourism PR. From the first day of opening Kate had national press journalists staying, based on the promise of a superb experience. Kate understands that it takes more than just the opening of new self catering cottages to make the news, and by bundling together experiences based on Doxford's superb rural setting Kate lifted the story above the rest.”
Giles Ingram, Executive Director, Northumberland Tourism

“I can recommend Kate Slater unreservedly; she has been very successful at coordinating our launch and has managed extremely successfully to interest a number of national, top line journalists to visit Doxford and review our product. We certainly feel we have had a professional approach and a great rapport with Kate.”
Alun Moore, Project Director, Doxford Cottages
