In June, media placements were at the top of our agenda with not one, but three clients featuring in national press around key business issues: personalised marketing in The Guardian, lean management in the Daily Telegraph and our Online Payment client had a comment featured in the Wall Street Journal regarding Smart Meters - all showing our clients in key thought leadership editorials.

We continued with our Contact Centre client's analyst briefing tour, the latest meeting with Frost and Sullivan, discussing developments and strategies going forward.

April 2010
We have kicked off the second quarter of 2010 in fine style.
The lead up to the UK General Election gave us the opportunity to build our clients' positive media presence - CEO of our online lead generation client had an interview with Bloomberg News to discuss the financial impact of the forthcoming election on SME's. This was quickly followed by joining 55 other SME's voicing concern over a hung parliament. We're on a roll, no matter the election outcome.
Our team has been kept very busy managing the European conference for our contact centre client in Amsterdam. We had more than 1,000 attendees with 18 senior analysts and press from the nationals, trade and IT sector, and secured amongst many 1:1 interviews, interviews with the editor of Banking Technology and Customer Engagement Club.
Meanwhile further afield, we have secured an interview for our online payment processing client with Arizona Republic for a feature length company profile piece. Our online lead generation client went to further strengths garnering a high profile coverage in Europe with W&V in Germany and Bulldog Reporter in the USA.
March 2010
The UK General Election fever hit our offices last month with the CEO of one of our clients being part of just 15 business men off to a breakfast briefing with the Prime Minister on key banking issues. Excitingly this has led to a high profile TV interview with Bloomberg News.
The same company had a high profile media month internationally with top tier coverage in the UK from Marketing Week, a piece in OMMA's MediaPost in the US and great coverage in Germany including W&V, Marketing Borse and ecommerce magazin. A major coup was a piece in the UK's Guardian newspaper.
We spent a busy few days at The IPTV World Forum 2010 where our sister company Targetwire sponsored the Press Office and attracted a significant number of companies to use its media distribution service.
And we started off the month by winning the US PR business of a payments company based in Arizona. A nice end to the first Quarter.
February 2010
February has been a busy and successful month for our press outreach teams with two large press events in London to launch a new international charity into the UK.
We secured interviews with journalists from The Independent on Sunday and Bloomberg News, with lots of interest from TV and radio and this resulted in excellent coverage in a number of top tier publications including an excellent piece in Politics.co.uk and The Huffington Post to help drive our government lobbying campaign for the charity.
We continued to push editorial opportunities to our clients' hit lists with excellent coverage in Zoom In Online, IT Security, Retail Systems, and Net magazine.
Our own Disaster Management article 'The Disaster Limitation Rule Book 'Lessons to be learned from the Toyota brand disaster' sparked a lot of interest from journalists - amongst them Stuart Elliott of the New York Times. The article also appeared on MyCustomer.com in the UK and will be featured in the Spring Edition of The Strategist, published in the US by Public Relations Society of America, the world's largest organisation for PR professionals.
January 2010
In the past few months we have witnessed a series of crises mis-managements – from Tiger Woods to Toyota, we have seen them repeat the same mistakes, leading to what could be irreversible brand damage. The instant nature of today's communication means no one can hide from the media, from the Tweeters or from the bloggers.
The lesson to be learned from the recent raft of crises mis-managements is how to avoid them. IBA's Judith Ingleton-Beer looks at the mistakes people and corporations make and identifies six essential rules on how to manage a crisis, starting with the cardinal rule for all crisis management – assume the worst. This way you may still have a chance at coming through a crisis with your brand a little tarnished but intact.
December 2009
Despite the gloomy economic and political outlook, we have found 2009 to be a very busy and fruitful year! Here at IBA we have had a very productive December bringing this eventful year to a close and securing excellent coverage to finish 2009 on a high note.
Following a successful series of meetings in the US last month around one of the industries top Online Lead Generation shows, we wrote and pitched a number of articles which focused on boosting sales in the run up to Christmas, which resulted in great placements in a number of key marketing publications.
Back in London, our outreach team was busy at a seminar for industry professionals at the BT Tower, sponsored by our business analytics client, and we secured a 1:1 analyst briefing for leading industry publication, Mobile Media.
More coverage for our vehicle and telematics client, as well as securing an interview in 'm.logistics', a feature in 'Fleet World' and a placement in 'Land Mobile' – three of their top tier magazines.

Then off to Oslo for a take-on briefing and customer site visit with our new Nordics client.
We have secured some great vertical market placements this month especially for our vehicle tracking and telematics client who featured in Motor Transport, Maritime News International and Fleet News, and for our digital marketing clients with placements in NMA, Internet Retailing and Exec Digital.

October 2009
European coverage has been good this month for our contact center client with two top interviews for its Spanish division, one with Call Centre Magazine, the other with Call Centre Noticias where we also had a nice placement.

Then it was over to Taiwan for face-to-face meetings for another of our clients in the Powerlines Communications industry with a target publication, Compo Tech Asia.
UK placements were good, with excellent coverage for our Telematics and Business Analytics clients in key publications, including Risk UK, Government Technology and Local Government in IT Use.

Pitch writing around industry and press hot topics such as household energy consumption and online fraud resulted in securing excellent placements. And on top of all this, we were busy sorting interviews with Recruiter magazine for our Online Recruitment client, and Screen International and the Washington Times for our Independent Film client.
May 2009
Despite the gloomier economic outlook, our clients are maintaining a positive media presence, and making sure that any sales opportunities that are out there in the market come their way as opposed to their competitors.
May was a big month for European and international outreach. Our team was hard at work managing the entire European press attendees for our contact centre client's user conference in Barcelona, but that didn't stop them arranging 1:1 interviews with Japanese, Taiwanese and Asian journalists for our broadband client who was at an event in Taiwan. Meanwhile we continued our UK and US push for our independent film client with well attended screenings in LA and New York.
Generating editorial opportunities is what we are good at here. New government and gas industry initiatives into the Smart Grid market triggered our editorial team to draft an excellent Comment and some Quotable Quotes for our client, which not only generated good coverage but interview and article placement opportunities; a mini-positioning Opinion Piece we had written for another client on the growth of online click fraud produced an interview opportunity and article in our client's target magazines.
On top of this, we scored great interviews for all our clients, including in Fraudwatch for our fraud solutions client, and in the telematics market, in Commercial Motor and Fleetworld.
April 2009
Off to Paris at the beginning of April to supervise a series of 1:1 interviews we had arranged for our client at ad:tech Paris. This resulted in good coverage including streamed online interviews with Net Economie and VNU Net, as well as coverage in Marketing Direct.
The same client also had a prominent speaker slot we had arranged at the Promotional Marketing Exhibition where their session entitled 'New Techniques in Online Lead Generation' was the most attended of the whole event.
We publicised two new films for our Independent film client at the renowned Tribeca film festival in New York. As a result of the publicity, one attracted the biggest audience ever — 5,000 in one night and won a special Jury prize award audience.
We wrote and pitched comments to coincide with UK budget proposals. Just one example was a comment from our Spanish powerline communications client on carbon emissions which led to an interview opportunity and a commissioned article in a key target magazine.
A good month for our international expansion with the signing of a year's contract with a digital signage company for its PR in Canada and the US. In April we also won the UK vertical market PR business for the world leading company in business analytics.
March 2009
Another growth month for our international business. We were appointed to run the local public relations campaign for the Spanish subsidiary of one of our international communications industry clients. They have also asked us to manage a major pan-european press and analyst event in June.
March was busy! Our independent film client was at the Houses of Parliament premiering a film about the International Campaign to Ban Landmines. Speakers included the British UNICEF Ambassador and Chair of the All Party Landmine Eradication Group. The event was attended by a roll call of industry lobbyists and journalists. Then we were off to New York to manage the second annual Independent Film Awards event with almost 400 people attending from the industry, and some 50 key journalists and nationals, including the Independent from the UK

National placements were also a success as we had our childcare vouchers client featured in the money section of the Sunday Times. But not to forget the importance of vertical market media where our Independent Film client was reviewed in a detailed article on online distribution in Converging Media, as well as an article in Vertigo about the successful film premiere in January, End of America.
January 2009
A successful start to the year as we saw two of our big clients feature at the Consumer Electronics Show 2009 in Las Vegas. We arranged 1:1 briefings with top journalists from publications including the Wall Street Journal, Computerworld and Digital Lifestyle. On top of this, we placed a lead feature in EETimes Europe for our Powerline Communications client.
We also held a film premiere in London for our Independent Film client, with over 40 members of the press attending - nationals and trade press - resulting in high profile features in the Guardian and Financial Times plus all the main film media. We missed out on a scheduled Broadcast slot with BBC The Politics Show at the last minute because the editor managed to get an interview with Alan Milburn!

December 2008

We also secured key editorial for the same client's Scandinavian subsidiary in its top marketing publication to support the company's drive into the Scandinavian market.
Placements and interviews were top of our agenda this month as we prepared outreach support for two of our high profile clients who were exhibiting at CES 2009 in January in Las Vegas. For our Design Consultancy client, we secured a pre-show 1:1 with Popular Science Magazine and additional face-to-face interviews for the event with leading publications, including The Wall Street Journal. We also arranged 1:1 meetings for our other client - a leader in the Powerline Communications sector - during the three day show with key target press and analyst, including Forrester Research and Strategy Analytics.
Despite the difficult economic times we live in, we find that more and more companies are using our 'unbundled' PR services to grow their businesses internationally — we signed up the French subsidiary of one of our existing clients to put in place a French PR Campaign starting 2009.
November 2008
In November, we continued to achieve strong success with our outreaches across Europe and the US with placements in the UK, Finland, the Netherlands and the US for our Online Lead Generation client, and in Germany, France and Spain for our RFID client.
A major coup this month was coverage in the Wall Street Journal for an opinion piece for one of our major international clients in the mobile marketplace. This same piece achieved over 25 significant press clippings, as well as interviews with Mobile Marketing Magazine and Mobile Europe - showing how you can place an opinion piece more than once, and in very good publications!
