Success
Every day we celebrate our clients’ success, and keep a strong focus on enabling them to meet their goals. To do this we dig deep to understand what success means for our clients, and to deliver the PR strategy and approach that’s right.
Whether it’s a billion pound acquisition, articulating clear messages to your entire organisation, winning industry awards or simply placing a feature article in a key trade magazine —our PR programmes are based on our broad industry knowledge and extensive communications skills, and designed to drive success for our clients.
“We have a clear strategic direction for our company, and it is therefore important to speak to the right media in order to express this to the industry. Platform’s deep and wide connections with journalists and analysts means that we’re now able to secure press coverage that we would not have been able to achieve on our own.”

“When we decided to take a fresh approach to PR, Platform was able to think outside the box and create a PR 2.0 campaign that enables us to connect with our audiences in a more targeted and intelligent way. The Platform team knows the satellite and media space inside out and is therefore able to produce clear and relevant materials that have credibility and significance to our market.”
Darren Deans, Marketing Communication Manager, Arqiva Satellite & Media

“Platform’ specialist knowledge has been a great asset for us. They have been highly productive from day one and instrumental in helping us successfully launch the company at NAB, in just a month.”
“With their understanding of the industry and where we fit, combined with their rich experience and contacts, Platform has hit our communication goals. In addition, the team is very flexible and pro-active, dovetailing with our internal PR and marketing functions. They have great internal writing resources, but if we want to take the lead on a writing project they’re happy to just polish the finished product.”

“Deep expertise and a second to none industry network are the two things that make Platform stand out from the crowd. They understand the consumer, commercial and technology drivers in the media and broadcast world and they know the people who matter most. Whether you want to talk to event organisers, publishers, journalists, analysts, opinion formers and even potential partners in the ecosystem – Platform will help you make a connection. That’s a big benefit to companies like us and a rare thing to find in a PR agency.”

“Working with Platform is a real breath of fresh air. What I like most about Platform is that because they understand my sector of the industry at a deeper level than any other PR agency I’ve worked with, we start every project near to the summit rather than at base camp. This means we get where we want to go fast and with minimum effort: that’s crucial when you’re a fast moving company with a lot to say.”
Ian Valentine, Chief Architect & Founder, Miniweb.

“Platform’s knowledge and expertise of the media and TV industry helps us to shape the Miniweb message and build strong market presence. Their ability to really understand our solutions means we can trust them to quickly and effectively take our story to our global audience.”

“For the past 14 years Platform has helped TANDBERG Television achieve consistently high levels of media coverage for its product launches. Careful targeting of PR messages has maximized their impact. At exhibitions we have found that a combination of pre-placed feature articles, embargoed interviews and stand visits from press and analysts have given us a greater share of voice than our competitors. The quality of our products is complemented by the strength of our PR.”
Carl Furgusson, VP of Product Management, TANDBERG Television, part of the Ericsson Group

“When TANDBERG Television wanted to articulate its vision for the future of television, we turned to Platform PR to write a series of Vision Papers covering different segments of our business. Platform managed the planning, writing and approvals process and created documents that set out the challenges facing our customers, the need for change, and how that change could be managed. The Vision Papers have been an important part of our marketing to existing and potential customers.”
Noel Matthews – Vice President of Business Development, EMEA and APAC, TANDBERG Television, part of the Ericsson Group

“Platform knows the media and broadcast industry inside out. This depth of knowledge, combined with first class communications skills, helps us to take a strong share of voice in the global TV debate. What’s more, their passion and enthusiasm means they are a proactive and fun team to work with and that our relationship goes beyond the norm for client/agency – they have become an integral part of our global team.”

“The excellent PR and communications advice that Platform gives us is very valuable. The company plays an active role in the creation and ongoing refinement of our strategic messaging and communications. This ensures that our messages land in the right way with all of our stakeholders – from our employees, through our customers to our investors – around the world.”
Janne T. Morstol, COO, T-VIPS

“Platform played a crucial role in helping me launch IPTV solutions at my last company. They did such a good job that when we founded T-VIPS and needed public relations and messaging assistance, Platform was our first and only choice of PR agency to work with.”
“What Platform does that’s most important to me is ensure that T-VIPS continues to punch above its weight. They understand our technology and really know how to package a story to maximize its reach and impact. Additionally the agency continues to evolve to make sure that both Platform and T-VIPS stay ahead of the game.”
