"The training provided by Nellie PR was invaluable in giving our team the confidence to pitch story ideas to journalists in an effective and compelling way. I’d recommend the training to any other PR agencies out there wanting to upskill their team – it’s a fantastic resource and well worth the time."

"Excellent. Ellen provides a wealth of knowledge, experience and examples to bring the learnings to life. I really enjoyed my morning, thank you."

"A really inspiring session - with perfect levels of pace and interaction. It was a good touch to be able to work on our own press pitches to make it more relevant and personal. I learned some great top tips."

"Really useful pointers and I have found it helpful to take a step back and put yourself in the journalist's shoes. Definitely feel more confident in approaching publications."

"Really useful tips and advice to help us through the whole process of pitching to press to hopefully gain better coverage and to build better relationships with our media contacts. I found it very useful to have my own pitch with me and I could see instantly where I had gone wrong in the past."

"Five out of five! I've never been a fan of pitching to the media and Ellen's course provided the confidence boost I wanted. Packed full of useful tips, the short training session provided an excellent forum to both ask questions and share ideas around the table. After the training, we were invited to send a practice pitch to Ellen for feedback - what a great idea offering brilliant additional value."

"Fantastic short course. Helped me to identify how we will need to build our pitch strategy which hopefully will feed into our growing business. Loved the templates."

"Despite being in PR for more than 10 years, I decided to attend some training workshops to refresh my skills and pick up new tips during the lockdown - I came across Ellen's Pitch Craft workshop. It was time well-spent picking up some new tips as well as reinforcing much of what I knew. After the workshop I had a follow up call with Ellen who gave some guidance on approaching a new client which I found very useful. I highly recommend attending Ellen's training sessions and having her as a trusted PR person to bounce ideas off."

"Brilliant workshop today by Ellen Carroll, I’ve worked with PRs and managed PR staff for many years, but in only three hours I learned more about the process for gaining PR than I’ve learnt in 20 years"

"Today’s Pitch Craft session was so insightful and helpful! Being quite new to the PR world it was great for me to get some more understanding of how to pitch well! Plus, it really helped me as I managed to get some coverage for a client in a publication they were hoping for by using some of the tips you gave!"
