build trust and credibility
raise your profile and create awareness of your brand
help generate new leads
help you build a local and/or national reputation
help build your social media following
That means I know what stories will interest journalists and which ones will get deleted from their inbox!
I also often spent time talking to businesses and PR agencies about why their pitches didn't always work - and how they needed to adapt them to attract a variety of different media outlets.
My PR Bootcamp has been designed to give you a step-by-step, no nonsense guide to getting yourself in the press. This is your opportunity to use my experience as a journalist and planning producer to help you and your business get the recognition you deserve. And by the end of the bootcamp you will have sent at least one story to the press - and have several more ready to go!
What working with Fiona is like!
“Since completing Fiona's bootcamp, I've had articles published nationally and locally! I also have a regular slot on the local radio station and it's given me the confidence to apply for competitions & awards which I would never have done before. The Bootcamp has paid for itself! Elliegantly Made is getting out there & the orders are coming in. Fiona is very hardworking, certainly knows her job & is there for you long after the course has finished. She's there to support you 100%."
— Ellie Birch, Owner of multi award-winning cake company Elliegantly Made
“It's only weeks since completing Fiona's PR Bootcamp and I have already appeared in a national newspaper following Fiona's advice and will soon feature in a national women's magazine. Fiona has a wealth of knowledge and experience & she was able to share her insights in a way that was both informative and engaging. I especially appreciated the hands-on exercises, which helped me to put what I was learning into practice. One of the things that I liked most about the bootcamp was the sense of community. We were a small group of attendees and we were all able to learn from each other and support each other. I also appreciated the fact that Fiona was always available to answer our questions and provide feedback.
— Helen Walker, Charity Marketing Manager, Making a Difference Locally
“I have worked with Fiona for many years and have formed a
fantastic working relationship with her. As an ex-reporter for ITV, she has a wealth of knowledge and contacts when it comes PR. Her hard work to generate visibility for The Magic Dentist campaign has resulted in both national and local TV and radio coverage and significantly raised awareness across the UK. I would encourage anyone to engage with Fiona to heighten the profile of their dental practice or business. Both Fiona’s personal consultancy and educational PR bootcamps are worth their weight in gold. Huge thanks for everything and I look forward to continuing an amazing working relationship!”
— Nicki Rowland,
Dental Practice Management Consultant and Coach
“I've just completed the PR Bootcamp course and it is absolutely fabulous! Fiona is lively, enthusiastic & really knows her stuff. Getting advice from a journalist with so many years of experience and success is priceless. Fiona is so helpful and knows exactly what will and won't work. She has been available throughout to critique work done and help to re-word articles in a professional manner. Her straight, direct and honest approach helps in getting tasks done & moving forward in a logical and practical way. The course is run over 8 weeks in bitesize manageable chunks which allow work and life to continue too without becoming overwhelmed with zoom calls or homework. "
— Claire Borkowy, Snead Barns Interiors
“Fiona is such a great teacher! She explains everything so it's simple and completely do-able! I didn't have a clue how to get in the media - now I do and I also have the confidence to put myself out there!
— Havva Mahler, Acupuncturist and Expert in Chinese Astrology
“ Such a fabulous programme. I knew I needed to do PR but I didn't know how to go about it. I didn't think the media would be interested in what I did but Fiona showed me how to find stories that get picked up by journalists - ideas I hadn't even thought of! Fiona is there for you throughout the whole course and beyond.
I highly recommend!”
— Vanessa Williams, Creative Hub

PR Bootcamp is only for those excited about moving forward with their PR and getting themselves in the media. Getting in the media for free really is the most cost effective way to publicise your business - and Fiona is going to be holding your hand along the way.
By the end of these 14 days you will have received access to the first two modules of the course, taken part in the first two Live group bootcamp sessions and the first two hosted co-working sessions.
This means you'll have had the opportunity to find out more about PR and how it can benefit your business. You will also have done all the foundation work for all your future PR.
However, if you feel that it's not for you, reach out, show us you've done the work and we'll refund your investment.
Here's some of our most Frequently Asked Questions
Who is this course for?
The PR Bootcamp is for female entrepreneurs at any stage of their business who want to learn how to do their own PR without the expense of costly PR agencies. You might be a startup, freelancer, sole trader, small business owner or SME who already has someone in-house doing their marketing for them but needs help when it comes to getting press and media attention.
Do you offer a payment plan?
Yes! You can choose to pay in full or get started for just £399 and pay the rest in 3 easy installments!
How long is the PR Bootcamp?
You'll be spending 8 weeks with us and during that time you'll get to hang out with other bootcampers in the private Facebook Group, meet up once a week for our one hour Live sessions as well as see other on our weekly co-working sessions.
Do you offer refunds?
We certainly want you to be satisfied with your purchase but we also want you to give your best effort to apply the knowledge you will learn during the programme. We do off er a 14-day refund guarantee for purchases. If the programme is not for you, simply show us your work and we'll issue you with a complete refund within 30 days.
Is this right for me? I've tried to do press before, but it just didn't work!
Don't write yourself off so quickly! It's not your fault, you just didn't know how to go about doing it properly. Take heart and have confidence. With the right guidance, you can make it happen!
How is this course different?
This is a very easy-to-follow, practical, step-by-step programme. There's no fluff and no flannel. You will see your PR through the eyes of a journalist and really understand what it takes to get media traction. I will be guiding, advising and critiquing your work throughout the 8 weeks. I will also be providing accountability via the Facebook Group community. You will also have one piece of news sent to the press (or ready to send) by the end of the PR bootcamp with several more on track too.
