PR Strategy Refinery

Mandy Queen PR

“Mandy Queen PR were our key partner for many years, managing our media relationships and creating buzz around our proposition. They worked with us through many campaigns, offering direction and inspiration, helping us to frame our ideas, running with us as we developed those ideas into fleshed-out messages, and, critically, making sure those stories got to all the right people and published in all the right places. Their highly personal approach to business means that working with them is not only ‘highly effective’ but also ‘highly enjoyable.’ A class act.”

Stuart Barker, General Manager, Emarsys

"Mandy Queen supported FIRST's corporate communications for four years, providing a global press office service, producing and distributing press releases worldwide; managing the associated social media; sourcing, briefing, and managing freelance PRs around the world to support our annual conference; and, the writing and designing of our annual report and quarterly newsletter. Mandy also created a comprehensive annual crisis management plan and helped us prepare statements for any issues we encountered.

Mandy was professional, reliable, and knowledgeable and able to work with different cybersecurity experts from various cultures worldwide to coordinate several communications activities for us and identify potential news stories. She was able to understand our specific sector quickly, repurpose highly technical information, and make it accessible to our global members and media worldwide while protecting and expanding the reputation of FIRST."
