We're buzzing to announce the launch of our brand new digital PR offering at Seed. Join Lucy, our PR expert, and Nick our founder whilst they discuss why PR isn't dead, it's just evolved.
PR sometimes gets a bad rep - it’s seen as 'fluffy,' a nice to have, hard-to-measure, or just schmoozing, champagne and parties (thanks, Ab Fab). 🥂
But Lucy and Nick talk about how in today’s digital-first, brand-value driven world, PR is more relevant than ever.
That's why we’re super excited to announce the launch of PR at Seed. The impact of digital PR is so intrinsically linked with what we do for clients already in SEO, PPC and marketing, it just makes sense to add it to our tool-kit.
