Strong Media Relationships
We help financial services businesses to achieve their commercial goals through strategic, targeted communication programs that ensure potential and existing clients and other stakeholders hear their messages accurately. Media coverage plays a major role and, as required, we also provide a full range of communication services from strategy development and counsel to design and production of financial marketing materials such as brochures and product disclosure statements, and new media such as Facebook, Twitter and podcasts.
Strong relationships
Our strong relationships with financial journalists enable us to increase clients’ share of voice in media. We educate journalists in a client’s competitive strengths and products, while creating fresh new story angles.
Effective workshops
We help spokespeople to hone their media skills through workshops that explain what journalists are looking for and combine message development with personal coaching by a journalist.
Communication & marketing strategies
As part of the financial services industry ourselves, we keep abreast of the issues that may affect our clients’ businesses. This enables us to advise on how to respond to a challenge or capitalise on an opportunity to build a client’s brand.
