Full Profile : Tangerine celebrates being a 'generalist' PR consultancy, ie we try not to get stuck in the rut of specialising in any one marketplace. However, we do have areas where we excel/have more experience, including: retail, home interest, food/FMCG and 'all things green'.

Permit me to share our business philosophy:

Business-minded, we demonstrate that PR can be creative AND commercial. We ask the right questions (constantly), listen, think and then build and continuously adapt campaigns that add value to our clients’ businesses and their bottom lines.

We treat each other, our clients, journalists and everyone else we work with, with respect, and then we earn and expect respect in return.

We have creative minds which can develop excellent ideas that control the national news agenda, breathe new life into tired brands, or simply be applied to solving small-scale business problems.

We are motivated by achievement. Via MERIT (our soon to be patented evaluation tool) we agree results up front, roll up our sleeves and then work our little tushes off until we achieve/over achieve these results.

We constantly seek out and then develop even further, the best talent in every marketplace - geographical and specialism - to ensure we can continue to be the best.

Honesty is the absolute foundation on which the company is built. We do not lie.

Because of all this, Tangerine PR is known as a ‘Breath of Fresh Air’ within the marketplace.

Services : PR Consultancy, Public Affairs, Event Management, Crisis/issues Management

Testimonials :
“We’ve worked with Tangerine for more than a year and are very much a partnership. The team at Tangerine is very commercially minded and understands exactly what we’re looking for as a business. Being the UK’s leading automotive repair and MOT specialist, it’s vital we maintain a consumer dialogue on a local, regional and national level, as well as a presence within our trade media and Tangerine ensures this is achieved – via its excellent forward planning and creativity - and at a price we believe offers the best value to the business.”
Adam Chinn, head of marketing, Nationwide Autocentres

"What I like about Tangerine is that I know they'll give me best advice, so it's been very easy to build a trusting relationship that benefits us both. We also appreciate their no-shocks invoicing policy - nobody likes shocks and this takes the 'eek-factor' out of opening bills at the end of the month!"
Bev Whitehead, Comms Manager, Dulux Decorator Centres

"We've been really impressed with the Tangerine team. They're always bombarding us with ideas and turn briefs round really quickly and always hit the mark. It feels like they think of everything which is great - and they're fun to work with too!”
Sarah Froggatt, Communications Manager, Wilkinson Stores

Professional
I would like to thank PH and PK for the professional manner in which you delivered the two day "Business Plan Rectification" workshop. It was exactly what was needed and was of great value.
As you are aware I have spent a long period of time researching and writing the Lifestyle Vouchers International Business Plan and had been assisted by a number of other Business Advisers along the way. You, however brought with you considerable business experience and have developed the Plan into a document that can be implemented in the real world and one that gives us confidence for the future.
