with Julie Johnston

Are you passionate about the benefits your product or service offers to your customers, or ready to share your voice on topical matters?

Not only does media coverage create brand awareness, increase sales and build your credibility as a leader in your field – it actually cuts through the noise of advertising in a way that’s authentic and trustworthy.

This publicity can be amplified when tied in with activity across your other marketing channels.

Despite this, when it comes to marketing strategy, media is often neglected – or forgotten entirely. That’s where I come in! No only can I help identify opportunities for media coverage in your marketing plan, but I’ll help execute your media campaigns in line with your overall goals.

Hello, I'm Julie.

I love finding the newsworthy angle, the beating heart of the story and a great visual opportunity so we have a creative, engaging story that will connect with your audience – and that journalists will want to share.

Here’s a few examples of what makes my heart sing:

  • working with clients whose products or service benefits others (where I can share your passion and desire to spread your message!)
  • product launches and regional events (I also moonlight as a professional emcee, so can get hands-on with your event and help it run smoothly).
  • anything related to the arts / theatre scene!

Work With Me

As a PR & Media Consultant, I can manage short-term media campaigns, work with your team as part of your long-term strategy, or upskill you with the basics so you can manage your own publicity with minimal ongoing assistance.
