CIPR PRide awards // Palompo PR
In October 2015 I was lucky enough to be shortlisted and subsequently win the CIPR PRide award for Scotland's "Outstanding Independent PR Practitioner". For those of you that don't know, the CIPR is the voice of the public relations profession, a champion of its interests and a respected partner to the broader communications community. This award recognises the achievements, performance and excellent work of an independent public relations practitioner over the past three years and I was pretty gobsmacked but totally delighted to win. I come armed with a strong PR agency background, eight brilliant years with Weber Shandwick Scotland, and I have worked in house at Sterling Furniture before going solo to set up Palompo PR. I am also from a strong family business work ethic background, generations of Scot-Italian catering and hoteliers attitudes to work have been ingrained in my psyche and run through my veins. So I know a thing or two about how PR can help 'brilliant brands grow'. Often the barrier for small business is the question about what PR can do for your brand, and many a small empire is just not sure, which is why I am more than happy to demystify the PR process over a coffee - want to know what PR can do for you? Then get in touch.
