Happy Christmas Everyone

 As we start the last working day before Christmas it is an unusual day when I’m not actually pitching for new business, working up a new story; crafting an article or case study; chasing a client for new content; or even having an admin moment. I’m thinking instead of imminent gathering of family and friends and fretting mildly about the last big shop before Christmas.

So it’s at this point that I want to wish all visitors to Agility PR’s blog a Happy Christmas not least to Amplify (a Dunstan Thomas company) who helped us migrate to this new version of our site this year. It’s based on Word Press of course.

No Blog…no boots

Here it is – the very first blog entry of our brand spanking new WordPress-based site which goes live today. I ought to be embarrassed. Most of the journalists we work with have been blogging for nearly a decade already. Many PR practitioners and marketing recruitment agencies have been building huge profiles and followings through their blogs for even longer than that. Some only have blogs and don’t bother with a website at all.

What, you may ask, has Agility PR been up to while the Social Media Revolution has been going on around us? The sad truth is we have been building and rolling out social media comms plans, creating and managing SEO campaigns, as well as shooting and promoting online videos for well over a year so it looks like a severe case of the ‘Cobbler’s Children Having No Shoes’.

No excuse but winning new contracts and looking after our happy clients has understandably been our core focus and as the downturn has bit client demands have only increased and diversified, We need to not only deliver great media coverage month in month out, but invariably also build strong online profile and contribute to higher Google rankings. So today we delivering even more value to more clients than ever before. That said now is the time to turn my attention to my children’s footwear. I hope you like the first piece of stitching – lots more threads to come in the coming weeks and months.

Have a look at the latest video promo we did for one of our new project clients – a security integrators exhibition which we are helping promote – IS Expo: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dctwTa6NAAA
