A company based in Burbage, Leicestershire has been named as the
region's top PR consultancy in a new poll.
Word Association was the highest listed PR consultancy in the
East Midlands region in trade journal PR Week's annual league table
which ranks out-of-London agencies.
The agency, which is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year,
also posted an increase in turnover of 9% in 2010, one of the few
agencies to achieve this in recessionary times.
Chief executive Mark Thomas said: "This is the first time we
have appeared in the national listing and it's great news. We pride
ourselves on providing affordable and effective marketing solutions
to our clients and our continued growth in a tough economic climate
shows we are delivering."
PR is just one of the services offered by Word Association's 13
staff which also includes design, events, marketing strategy,
publications and new media.
The consultancy has 20 clients across the private, public and
voluntary sectors.
