Media relations

Media coverage is the lifeblood of any communications programme. Between us, we have nearly 200 years’ experience of media relations and we love it: there’s nothing better then seeing a client’s name or commentary in the press or online, or getting them onto broadcast media.

We’re a competitive lot at Flagship and our monthly ‘Coverage Award’ for the most outstanding piece of media coverage is fiercely fought over.

Whether you are looking for coverage in national newspapers and magazines, trade publications, news websites, or on the radio or television, we can help you. And, as we also have a regional office, we have expertise in gaining coverage in all forms of regional media.

Successful Flagship media relations campaigns have included gaining 152 pieces of media coverage for the Joint Information Systems Committee’s Digitisation Programme and gaining more media coverage in the South West for Enterprise UK than the client had ever gained before.
