Do you want to win more business or investment?
Do you feel your company isn&apos;t getting noticed?
Or do you have a potential issue that you don&apos;t want to damage your reputation?
Hi, I&apos;m Jane and I run a public relations consultancy called <a href=&apos;https://www.positive-story.com/&apos; target=&apos;_self&apos;>Positive Story</a>. I help companies in the engineering, infrastructure, technology and investment sectors to be seen, heard and to stand out from the competition.
I maximise business potential using targeted and focused PR campaigns. I also help companies to protect their reputation if there&apos;s an issue which could harm their business.
I&apos;ve helped dozens of companies, both large and small, to positively impact their bottom line - firms including Eurotunnel, Network Rail, RBS Group, BAE Systems and Bechtel.
After I ran a strategic PR campaign to promote one company&apos;s port construction and engineering expertise, its president received a call from a new client who had seen the media coverage and offered them a new contract on a port project in Louisiana.
I recently worked with a Dubai-based private equity company to promote their luxury residential development in Chelsea and help them win more investment. I achieved over 25 media articles around the world for that press release including coverage in their key media such as the <a href=&apos;https://www.standard.co.uk/business/chelsea-police-station-gulf-islamic-investments-john-gielgud-b979708.html&apos; target=&apos;_self&apos;>Evening Standard</a> and Property Week.
My current clients include a solar energy developer with projects in the UK, USA, Chile and Australia, which is pivoting its business to become an owner-operator and an engineering tech start-up, which has developed the biggest advance in water treatment technology for 50 years.
I&apos;m passionate about using PR, particularly media relations, to drive business success. I love doing what I do - and I know I can help your business.
