MADEBRAVE, the Glasgow-based brand agency, has launched a new public relations division.
The company said the offshoot has been created in response to “significant” demand from clients for “PR integration” during the pandemic.
It will be led by highly experienced public relations specialist Claire Morrison, who joined the agency earlier this year and is the former general manager of Frank PR Scotland.
MadeBrave said the new division would tap into Ms Morrison’s experience of working with brands such as Paddy Power, Innis & Gunn, and Penny Skateboards.
Ms Morrison said: “I’m really looking forward to getting stuck in at MadeBrave and building a team of the industry’s best creative PR people. MadeBrave are already well-known for their rock-solid combination of world-class strategy and creative, so I’m excited to extend these to our new PR division, as both are so foundational to effective PR.”
She added: “As MadeBrave continues to grow, the demand for the agency to offer a creative PR function has risen rapidly too. Our new PR offering will complete the circle on our marketing services, bringing our clients an unrivalled opportunity to benefit from PR integration anchored in brand.”
MadeBrave founder Andrew Dobbie, who launched the company in 2012, said: “We are thrilled to now be in a position to offer our clients the opportunity to amplify their campaigns through the power of creative PR and earned media. Claire will work closely with our established teams to deliver unforgettable, news-making campaigns with real brand impact.”
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
