Testimonial: Chris helped OE Visas Ltd enormously at about the
time we progressed form a 4 man band up to a 25 on the payroll show.
He was
excellent
at
grasping what it is we do and being able to fashion this into a highly
readable website and brochure for us. We have since grown further
as a company and this is in no small measure down to Chris's expertise.
I
recommend him to anyone who will listen.

Testimonial: “When I met Christopher Glen, I was immediately struck by his quick grasp of my company vision…His knowledge, experience and insight are remarkable. I quickly moved to sign up his services.
Since then I have been consistently surprised by his ability to find
stories and angles from our business that I simply hadn’t seen.
Within two weeks of the start of our contract, Design Links was a main
feature on radio and we occupied a two-page spread in the business press.
We have been asked for comment on a host of stories and Blue Kite has
backed our sponsorships with well-worked and well-publicised events and
much, much more. In essence Blue Kite has helped to generate publicity
for us that, in commercial terms, is worth many thousands of pounds.”
In addition to his PR expertise, Chris Glen of Blue Kite has the ability
to supply, at short notice, crisply written copy for brochures, news
publications and websites…I have no hesitation in recommending
Blue Kite to anyone who wants to raise the profile of their company

Testimonial 1: “I do want to take a moment to
thank Chris Glen for the sterling work he has put in for SWT. Chris has
increased the number of media hits
SWT has been achieving and organised press events….he has also
remained….available round the clock to respond to media queries
and crises.”
Mairi Rosko, SWT Head of Fundraising
Testimonial 2: "When Chris Glen was appointed to look after PR for one of Scotland's most important wildlife charities, the fortunes of the body in question were at a low ebb. It had been hitting the headlines for all the wrong reasons. Chris quickly changed the focus, winkling out worthwhile environmental stories from the conservation scientists - no easy task - and placing them with newspapers and journalists with a genuine interest in the environment. His approach was highly effective, involving as it did presenting stories in a form which often required an absolute minimum of effort on the part of busy newsrooms to get the item into useable shape. The charity's public profile improved very quickly."

The Herald
