“Ruby and her PAYG PR Model are amazing! We had a unique project which required special attention & handling and Ruby did the job perfectly. From quickly getting up to speed on our brand and our goals to project managing the majority of the project- which was above and beyond what was expected. But Ruby took it on with gusto and -It was executed perfectly! Couldn’t recommend Ruby more highly!”. Daniel Creasey, European Enterprise Marketing Manager, Panasonic TOUGHBOOK
“We’ve worked with Ruby for a number of years and have always found her to be determined, tenacious and very hard-working. She will deliver exactly what she promises and is customer-first focused. Here’s to many more years of effective collaboration!”. Dale Godliman, Sales Director, LOCALiQ
“[Ruby's] professionalism and commitment to delivering the best possible outcomes, to brief and on budget ensured the project was a success... Ruby is a direct, straight talking, force to be reckoned with - who always has a smile on her face. Don’t hesitate booking Ruby for all your PR needs.”. Inspector Julie Watson, Inspector, West Mercia Police
“Ruby has transformed our marketing creating a much increased digital media presence. Not a week will pass without someone positively commenting on our content. Any most importantly it works!”. Richard Banks, Partner, G Herbert Banks
“Ruby is really brought our Safer Streets multi-agency project to life. She engaged with all the partners, understood our various requirements and outcomes and turned this into one co-ordinated project; designing branding and multi-media assets to help partners promote our work. Ruby wrote editorial and press releases for online information and traditional press, designed social media assets for partners to use and create materials for officers to use and distribute at events. Ruby always has a smile, coaching officers to meet copy deadlines and making sure projects stay on target. Thanks Ruby, for delivering a very worth while project.”. Warwick Neale, Team Manager for Community Services, Worcester City Council
“I had an urgent piece of work that I needed completed in very short timescales. Ruby went above and beyond to find the right support for me and to ensure I could meet my deadline. Her team were really responsive, took care to fully understand the brief and produced an excellent piece of work for me. I was very impressed and would definitely use them again.”. Dr Karen Walker-Simpson, Director, Funder Safeguarding Collaborative
“We have been fortunate to have Ruby support us with a global campaign. Just weeks before the launch date she seamlessly fulfilled our PR brief and secured international trade and consumer press. We found her to be a clear communicator that quickly understood the handwriting and tone of voice of the brand. This is such an important skill when working with any agency and can often detract companies from outsourcing, with Ruby this was not the case. Curvy Kate has a fantastic Marketing Department with amazing assets to utilise but even the best team can experience moments when resources are stretched. We feel fortunate to have found Ruby as it is good to know that during those high pressured times, when the workload increases, that we can utilise her PR services again and optimise all of our opportunities. She was a compliment to our team and would highly recommend her.”. Rachel Jenkins, General Manager , now Managing Director, Curvy Kate
“Ruby is fantastic, she’s a no nonsense, straight talking PR guru who gets to the heart of a campaign and runs it. I’ve worked with Ruby a number of times where she’s project managed campaigns and her communication, professionalism and enthusiasm are second to none. Would highly recommend chatting to Ruby if you want help with PR, Comms, Marketing etc 🙂”. Chris Morris, Account Manager now Sky Adsmart, Global Media
“Ruby is fantastic. Ruby’s has an enthusiastic approach to her work throughout the year and on show day. She is always on hand to offer help and guidance with any of our marketing requirements. Ruby is an absolute pleasure to work with, we really cannot thank and recommend her enough.”. Esther Watts, General Secretary, Moreton Show
“Working with Ruby over the years has been consistently reassuring; she brings a level of professionalism and honesty that’s hard to come by. What I particularly value is that her advice is always grounded, clear and given with our best interests in mind. Ruby has always felt like a natural extension of our team rather than an external supplier. There’s a real sense of being in safe hands, knowing that her experience and judgement underpin everything she does. It makes a significant difference, especially in situations where clarity and confidence are key. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Ruby, not just for the quality of her work, but for the way she goes about it: collaborative, thoughtful and consistently dependable.”. Tom Hayman-Joyce, Partner, Hayman-Joyce
“What can I say about Ruby...she is a breath of fresh air! She's creative, full of ideas and has a wealth of experience and access to a highly skilled network of contacts that any business would be enviable of. She absorbs information like a sponge and takes it so that it works for her and/or her clients. Win/win all round.”. Donna Watkins, Business Adviser - Coaching, Oxford Innovation
