Neville Street established Stella Six in 2001, after a period with Shropshire Chamber of Commerce and as the marketing manager for the Learning & Skills Council Shropshire. Stella Six services organisations that maybe haven’t the capacity or the need to employ a full-time press/PR officer, but appreciate the benefit of regular press coverage or a well-planned PR campaign.
In outline, Stella Six has:
· Complete access to the journals, publications and broadcast media that you, your competitors and your customers read and listen to
· An established and trustworthy team of copy, newsletter and web content writers, journalists, creatives, designers, professional photographers and media trainers
In addition, Neville has:
· Over ten years experience in marketing and public relations
· PR Week Award ‘99
· Chartered Institute of Marketing – Best Corporate Marketing Strategy 2000 Award
· Specialist knowledge of IT and telecoms press.
Stella Six offers three simple media management services:
Basic - One-off press release, including photography*, set up of media list
Standard - Two releases per month, including photography*, quarterly surgery, response service, set up and maintenance of media list
Premier - Up to four releases per month, including photography*, monthly surgery, response service, set up and maintenance of media list Bespoke services or campaigns and monthly retainers are considered and the rates negotiable depending primarily on the job and more importantly a client’s budget! Once we get to know the client and their business, copy may be produced for a variety of purposes including long-term projects.
Stella Six does not guarantee any coverage but will manage:
· Press clippings if required, at an additional functional cost
· Incoming press requests – Stella Six will position clients as the main contact.
The press want to talk to them about their business not us. We will not tie clients down to a contract or any formal agreements. The service will be delivered as agreed and if it is felt that it’s not working they may stop using us at any time.
*Please note – A high quality digital camera is used for standard press release photographs. However, if clients require a professional photographer, additional reasonable rates have been negotiated for either one off or retainer work.
