News Appeal

Let a news hound sniff out your stories

Since Carla Delaney made the shift from mainstream news into PR she has consistently found stories she would like to receive as a news editor.

Human interest stories stand out from the crowd and are brilliant ways to raise personal or brand awareness. Typical examples are:

• HR expert Christine Marsh has had national radio publicity for her personal story 'Girl Called Bill'. It is one of many human interest stories to introduce national and specialist auidiences to her expertise. Seee www.primeobjectives.com
• Reiki Master and Feng Shui House Doctor Mary Nonde received national publicity for her work with a school for autistic children. See www.dancingforjoy.co.uk
• Business Communications expert Bob Hayward received national and local publicity for the entire time he walked a marathon a day from Lands End to John'O Groats in aid of a burns victim. He has since received publicity and marketing help for his corproate communications and training businesses. See www.opcuk.com
• Professional speaker and trainer Jim Ewan had tv and newspaper coverage for his half marathon charities walks. He is now the President of the Professional Speakers Association and will get coverage for his talks and books. See www.jimewan.com
• Web Expert Jane Saunders had instant coverage about her early exploits in the circus. See www.jane-saunders.co.uk The story opened doors and is a good conversation grabber when networking.
• Top professional speaker Graham Davis firmly believes that PowerPoint slides can't speak for themselves - Powerful presenters can. Speakers who have been coached by Graham without exception, experience greater levels of confidence, clarity and impact. Carla Delaney Communications publicises his views on public speaking and seeks his personal guidance for clients. See www.straighttalking.co.uk
• Top professional guitarist Gordon Giltrap found a rare violin at a car boot sale. His family narrowly escaped the 2004 Tsunami and his best known tune, Heart Song will once again be used for the hit travel series 'Wish You Were Here' Concerts in 2005 and his charity work with the Water Rats help raise awareness.
