"We enlisted the help of Rise PR to help promote our Celebrity Paws Auction 2010, which is an annual campaign that aims to raise much-needed funds to help the thousands of unwanted cats and kittens currently in our care. Straightaway, Karen took on board our needs and requirements and demonstrated an extensive knowledge of online PR throughout the project. She secured a large amount of coverage on our behalf and the auction raised the highest amount yet. Karen was professional, knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with."
Kate Bunting, PR Manager
"Rise PR's understanding of the technology, consumer and start-up media in the UK helped ensure a hugely successful launch for Geomium. PR was our main marketing activity and thanks to Rise PR we achieved coverage in target media including The Guardian, The Daily Mail, TechCrunch, and TheNextWeb. That coverage led to Geomium reaching #3 in the social networking app chart in iTunes and seeing more than 100,000 downloads of our iPhone app in the four weeks after launch."
Michael Ferguson, CEO
"PassivSystems is not an easy business to support. Our PR partner needed to be able to understand a new and highly technical marketplace, our differing propositions for government, utilities, businesses and consumers and support us strategically in positioning the company credibly in all spaces. Rise PR has excelled on all counts - taking us from start up to key player in under 12 months."
Rebekah Brown, Marketing Director
