A Warm Welcome to…. Jo Lavelle

As Food PR grows and the online space gets more and more important to our clients, good content is crucial. Each day, we produce content for clients by means of press releases, blog posts, videos and photography. This content is produced to get attention – the attention of the media (resulting in wonderful press coverage for clients), and the attention of a client’s customer base (resulting in engaging social media material).

As we have welcomed new clients on board, our content has become richer; we’re attracting more followers and we’re gaining more traction for clients.  Long may it last! However, as news worthy as it is that a new restaurant has opened, a new chef joins a team, or a new innovative promotion is taking place, there’s plenty more behind the scenes stories that may not make it to press  – but it’s just as interesting. We want to share all those stories with clients’ followers, fans and customers. We needed a content manager…. enter Jo Lavelle stage right.
