Case Study: A Mind Apart Theatre Company
The Project
This education and community-based theatre group needed personal brand building, PR strategy and wanted to build networks with local schools. Faye has mentored A Mind Apart’s director Jodie for the last two years to help further develop the education market.
Feedback from the Client
"Faye and I have worked very closely to make sure A Mind Apart receives the publicity our people and programmes deserve and need to help us grow. Throughout the last two years, I have received mentoring from Faye that has lead to speaking at various events that she has helped to organise, as well as consistently passing valuable new business contacts over to me that I may wish to follow up. She has offered a very personal service, always being aware of our current needs. Her work with us has included putting me forward for various speaking engagements, appearances on BBC radio, full page features in the press and linking me with other potential partner clients she is working with. These results have led to me gaining personal contacts and continuing to develop the relationships for such appearances myself. I have been very pleased with the work and support Faye has given us, and she has more than once gone beyond expectations always jumping at opportunities to network me with other people. Her marketing and PR coaching has been invaluable and has helped A Mind Apart grow even more than was expected in a short space of time. Faye’s experiences and contacts have been important and have offered us something that no one in the company had experience of. I can’t praise Keep your Fork highly enough and it has been a pleasure to have her working with us and supporting us."
