Red Wave: here for you

Our services

Red Wave is not just another PR firm, we are business people tuned into the latest challenges and opportunities. Our services span the communications mix.

Creative, viral & multimedia

It is impossible to escape that we live in an online world and, even when supporting traditional activities it is essential to exploit the newest opportunities. See some of our work, invariably produced on the tightest budgets.

Publicity and media relations

We build strong media relations on your behalf, pitching news stories and feature ideas to the right people and finding the right mix of approaches to complement this.

Specific coverage can never be guaranteed but we work hard to achieve your objectives and we have an excellent track record of executing thoughtful and successful campaigns. Take a look at the case studies section of this website for some examples of recent campaigns.

If we don't think a media relations campaign is likely to be the best use of your marketing spend, we'll be honest and tell you up front and explore alternatives.

We execute publicity in its broadest sense with a range of strategies from traditional publicity events, to inventive use of new media and social networking platforms. Publicity is sometimes an important complement to a media relations campaign, or it may eclipse media relations as the main element in a consumer awareness building campaign.

Event management

Conferences, parties, launches … events can be a critical part of the communications mix. At your event you are relationship-building face to face with your audience. Their experience will shape their perceptions. This is why Red Wave Communications is the right choice to produce your event, or provide strategic support to your own staff. Not only do we have superb attention to detail and the experience to make your event a practical success, we stay focussed on your communications objectives too.

Events we managed in the last year:

— A high-profile awards ceremony with 150 guests, celebrities and a government minister.
— A fundraising evening for 50 VIPs for a re-launching charity.
— A one-day conference for a not-for-profit organisation.
— A ten-day UK book tour for an up-and-coming international author.

We properly define your audiences and the key messages for your event, arrange media briefings, on-site press offices and press management. We work with high-profile individuals, VIPs and celebrities to market and PR your event appropriately

For every event, large or small, we put a tailored team together. And then we work our socks off to make your event a success.

Marketing research

Anybody can answer a question, but we think that to find the right answers, first you have to find the right questions. For the best way to predict the future is to invent it. Usually working with trusted partners our philosophy is refreshingly simple: why learn what others are doing when you can learn to do it better?

From local government to sewing machine manufacturers we can specify, set up and deliver your research.

Editorial management

Daily new services, weekly briefings, copy writing and blogging, on paper and on screen: the need to generate material in a timely and accurate manner is critical. Our workflow support is second-to-none and a national professional magazine and major business location already already benefit every week

Training

Sometimes you can be your own best advocate - but don't let your lack of experience hide your message. We can provide the full range of media and author training to make your material sharper, clearer and focussed on your targets.

We can deliver courses one-to-one or in small groups and will tailor them to your specific needs.
