WHAT WE DO

Eight capabilities.
One connected team.

Strategy, media, training, research, events, campaigns and internal communications — under one roof, and shaped around the change you need to create.

Not sure where to start? Most clients aren’t. A short conversation is usually enough to find the real question — and the right place to begin.

01 / HOW WE HELP Or explore the PR-PMU

ONE TEAM, NOT A MENU

The right expertise, brought together around the problem.

Communications challenges rarely arrive neatly labelled. A crisis has a research question inside it. A campaign needs an internal audience. An event is also a media moment. We bring the capabilities together as the work requires, coordinated by people who understand the whole picture.

Each service below can stand alone or combine with others. If you are unsure which you need, start with what is happening — we will help with the diagnosis.

01 / STRATEGY & COUNSEL

PR strategy & counsel

Senior judgement for the decisions that shape how people see you.

A GOOD FIRST QUESTION

“What needs to change, and who has to believe it?”

Communications works best when it is connected to what the organisation is trying to achieve. We help leaders and teams find that connection, decide what matters, and build a plan people can actually use.

02 / ISSUES & PREPAREDNESS

Crisis & issues communications

Clarity and composure when the questions are difficult.

A GOOD FIRST QUESTION

“What do we know, and what can we say with confidence?”

Issues rarely arrive in a straight line. We help you assess what is happening, decide what to say and who should say it, and keep the organisation coordinated while the situation develops.

Klirkom archive photograph: Crisis and issues communications

Signals you need this

  • A sensitive issue is gaining attention and the facts are still moving.
  • Different stakeholders are asking different questions.
  • You need a response plan before a decision becomes public.

What you get

  • Rapid issues assessment and stakeholder mapping
  • Holding statements, Q&A and scenario planning
  • Spokesperson preparation and media handling
  • Coordination across leadership, legal and operations

Experience across the issues spectrum

Our crisis work covers the situations that rarely fit a standard playbook:

  • Layoffs and workforce change
  • Employee relations and whistleblowing
  • Activist and influencer campaigns
  • Accidents and operational incidents
  • Community disputes over sites and equipment
  • Social media crises and consumer boycotts

Private sector, public institutions and civil society — often on the same issue, around the same table.

How we work

01Establish the facts, the risks and the questions that matter.
02Agree the position, the voice and the decision rights.
03Deliver coordinated communications, internal and external.
04Learn from the response and strengthen readiness.

03 / MEDIA & SPOKESPERSONS

Media relations & spokespeople

Relevance earns attention. Preparation earns trust.

A GOOD FIRST QUESTION

“What is the story only we can tell?”

Media engagement is a relationship, not a mailing list. We help you find the story that deserves to be told, prepare the person who will tell it, and stay in the conversation for the right reasons.

Klirkom archive photograph: Media relations and spokespeople

Signals you need this

  • Your organisation has a story but limited share of voice.
  • Leaders are visible, but the message is not landing as intended.
  • You need to build relationships with journalists before you need them.

What you get

  • Media strategy and targeted outreach
  • Story development and newsroom-ready materials
  • Interview and spokesperson preparation
  • Monitoring, analysis and response

How we work

01Find the story that connects your work to the news agenda.
02Equip spokespeople with messages, evidence and practice.
03Build relationships and coordinate interviews or briefings.
04Track coverage, learn and keep the conversation going.

04 / TRAINING & CAPACITY

Communications training

Confidence built through practice, not performance.

A GOOD FIRST QUESTION

“Who needs to be ready, and for which room?”

We train leaders, spokespeople and teams in the situations they actually face: a difficult interview, a public hearing, a town hall, a crisis simulation. Every programme is tailored, practical and built to stick.

Klirkom archive photograph: Communications training

  • Leaders are technically strong but less comfortable in public.
  • The team needs a shared standard for messaging and delivery.
  • A new issue, launch or change requires people to be ready.

How we work

01Understand the audience, the stakes and the gaps.

03Practise on camera, in the room and under pressure.
04Follow up with coaching, tools and refresher sessions.

05 / RESEARCH & INTELLIGENCE

Research & stakeholder insight

Understand the room before you speak to it.

A GOOD FIRST QUESTION

“What do our stakeholders actually believe?”

Good communications begins with listening. We gather and interpret the evidence that shows where understanding, trust and risk actually sit, so decisions are based on what people think rather than what we assume.

Klirkom archive photograph: Research and stakeholder insight

Signals you need this

  • You are not sure how stakeholders really perceive the organisation.
  • A decision needs public or community input before it moves.
  • You need to track sentiment and issues over time.

What you get

  • Stakeholder mapping and audience segmentation
  • Perception, issues and reputation research
  • Media, social and community listening
  • Field insight and consultation support

How we work

01Define the questions, audiences and decisions the research serves.
02Use the right mix of interviews, listening and field methods.
03Turn evidence into implications, not just findings.
04Connect insight to messages, plans and measurement.

Commission stakeholder insight
06 / EVENTS & EXPERIENCES

Events & live experiences

An event is a communications moment, not only a logistics exercise.

A GOOD FIRST QUESTION

“What should people remember a week later?”

From a press conference to a national launch, the programme, the audience, the content and the coverage all tell one story. We bring them together and manage the detail that makes the day work.

Klirkom archive photograph: Events and live experiences

Signals you need this

  • A launch, convening or consultation needs to land with several audiences.
  • The programme is ambitious but the communications plan is thin.
  • You need one team to coordinate content, guests, media and production.

What you get

  • Event concept, programme and run-of-show
  • Participant and stakeholder communications
  • Supplier, venue and production management
  • Media handling and post-event content

How we work

01Agree the purpose, audience and what success looks like.
02Shape the experience, content and communications.
03Coordinate people, suppliers and the live moment.
04Capture the content and keep the conversation alive.

Plan an event
07 / CAMPAIGNS & CONTENT

Digital campaigns & content

Made for the audience, not just the algorithm.

A GOOD FIRST QUESTION

“What do we want people to do differently?”

Digital is a channel, not a strategy. We start with the people you need to reach and the action you want to encourage, then build the content, channels and community around that.

Klirkom archive photograph: Digital campaigns and content

Signals you need this

  • Your campaign is producing impressions but not much else.
  • You need content that works across earned, owned and paid channels.
  • The organisation has a point of view but no consistent way to express it.

What you get

  • Campaign strategy and creative development
  • Film, design, copy and social content
  • Channel planning and community management
  • Live measurement and optimisation

How we work

01Define the audience, the behaviour and the barriers.
02Develop the idea, the content and the channel plan.
03Publish, engage and coordinate with the wider programme.
04Measure what matters and improve in real time.

08 / PEOPLE & CHANGE

Internal communications & change

Change lands better when people understand what it means for them.

A GOOD FIRST QUESTION

“What does this change mean for our people?”

The internal audience is often the most important and the least served. We help leaders explain change clearly, equip managers to have better conversations and create the conditions for people to participate.

Klirkom archive photograph: Internal communications and change

Signals you need this

  • A change is being announced before it has been understood internally.
  • Managers are being asked to communicate without the tools to do it.
  • Employee questions are outpacing the organisation’s answers.

What you get

  • Internal communications strategy and channels
  • Leadership messaging, town halls and Q&A
  • Change and engagement programmes
  • Manager toolkits and feedback loops

How we work

01Understand what people know, fear and need to hear.
02Agree the narrative and the role of leaders and managers.
03Build the channels, conversations and materials.
04Track understanding and adjust the approach.

Talk about internal communications

STILL NOT SURE?

That is usually a sign the brief needs a conversation.

Tell us what is happening, who is asking and what you need to change. We will tell you honestly how we can help — and where to start.
