Testimonials

While we’re more than happy to shout about our clients’ achievements, we were brought up to believe it’s never polite to boast about your own.

Instead, we’ll leave that to our clients.

If you’d like the chance to make up your own mind, simply take a look at some of our case studies and contact us to find out more.

I just wanted to drop you a line to thank you for the work the Encore team has done on our behalf since your engagement with us in April 2013.

You will recall from our early meetings that some of my colleagues were a little sceptical as to the benefits of public relations programme. 18 months later and the story couldn’t be much more removed from that initial starting point.

Everyone who has become involved in the PR side of the business is very pleased with what we have achieved and is totally sold on the approach we now take.

From a personal point of view, I now fully understand that the timing and method of release of information is of huge importance and have witnessed first-hand the benefit of sticking to the plan: I don’t think it’s coincidental that the Prime Minister visited our stand at Farnborough Airshow – our messages of  investment, employment creation, research and development and international co-operation have all played their part.

I also think the energy we’ve created using considered, strategic method is ten times that of an unplanned, ad-hoc approach.  The fact that you and your team are all so professional, energetic and fun to deal with only makes the process so much easier. Thank you!

Pete Griffiths, Business Development Manager, Sigma Precision Components

The social media training was very worthwhile, with valuable hints and tips gained to make the world of social networking easier to understand and navigate.  We would recommend this training to anyone new to this field.

“We appointed Encore Communications to help develop a communications plans for nexGworx as we grew our SME. They provided great support and were always responsive to our requirements, helping focus campaigns on our target audiences, growing our social media following and securing high-quality editorial coverage in relevant trade press.

“I was particularly impressed by their ability to get to grips with technical elements of our offer and their implications for customers quickly, pitching content appropriately for different audiences.”

Ste Ashton, MD nexGworx

As a firm of solicitors that specialises in a number of areas of law and has many different personalities and PR requirements, straight off the bat Encore was able to spot a good story, making it current and interesting to our potential clients.

Their turnaround times and creative thinking are second to none and we have picked up work as a direct result of their coverage. Their knowledge of different media and thinking outside the box is exceptional and I have no doubts in their abilities as PR professionals.

Beverley Weston, Marketing Manager, George Green LLP

Providing everything from proactive media relations, reputation management and internal communications to social media and crisis management, their work has made them a trusted and valued part of the team: calm under pressure, good humoured and repeatedly providing reliable, effective advice.

Encore always made an effort to get to know our businesses, allowing them to adapt PR programmes to balance individual business and Group needs while building effective trade, regional and international media relationships across our key sectors.

I have no hesitation in recommending their work.

Malcolm Gough, Group Sales and Marketing Director, Doncasters Group Ltd.

Liz (founder of Encore Communications) worked with me when I was Director of Regeneration and Enterprise at Birmingham Chamber of Commerce. She helped devise a new strategy and branding approach for my team.

Her work was extremely helpful in clarifying our direction and included an excellent brand identity and articles to help us capture thought leadership in our field.

I have no hesitation in recommending her for any kind of branding, marketing or strategy development work. She and the team developed a deep understanding of our goals and values and produced high quality work.
