MEDIA RELATIONS
Bill Clinton once said that a politician complaining about the media is like a sailor complaining about the sea. So it is with your business or organisation. Media and stakeholder relations require sophisticated management and planning, and must survive and succeed in a world of 24 hour news, where the voice of the blogger can reach more people than the voice of the news reader.

- Creating coverage that systematically protects and enhances your reputation, pre-empting competitors and opponents for whom success comes at your expense;
- Making sure that your voice reaches the constituencies that matter most to you, in the ways that are most effective for you;
- Engaging with the media to maintain timely, reliable intelligence and strengthen influential relationships;
- Devising and implementing pro-active and reactive media strategies and campaigns.
