This is our PRmoment!

We’ve got something to smile about here at Skout…

In busy months like this, we’re especially pleased to be rewarded for our hard work. So you can imagine how delighted we were to discover that we’ve made the shortlist for Small Agency of the Year in the PRmoment Awards 2015!

Formerly known as the Golden Hedgehog Awards, the PRmoment Awards recognises all aspects of PR carried out by in-house comms and PR agencies like us. Now in its third year, the ceremony has quickly become a key date in the PR realm. We were keen to showcase what we’ve achieved and the date of this year’s ceremony has been circled on our calendar for a while, so we’re delighted to receive a nomination.

Having been nominated in the North shortlist, we’re looking forward to rubbing shoulders again with other leading PR pros from right across Scotland, Northern Ireland and Northern England. The category we’re part of, sponsored by Prospect, features several Manchester PR agencies and others throughout the north.

With an award from the PRide Awards 2013 already in our trophy cabinet, we’d love to add to this and make ourselves proud – it’s stiff competition though! Getting gold for the PRmoment Awards would the cherry on top of a successful year of business at Skout.

So, with the cocktail dress discussions on the office starting already, roll on March when we look forward to a glitzy ceremony at the Hilton, Manchester.

Alex Brown has just started his career at Skout PR and will be a regular contributor to the Skout blog.

It’s been a long time in the planning (pre-pandemic to be precise) and the first time we’ve been abroad for a kick off to the new financial year. We’ve always found kick off meetings a great way...

TikTok is increasingly being used as a platform for B2B companies to implement their marketing strategy, aiding in brand exposure, lead generation and profile building. But, where does paid TikTok advertising come into play? Is it an effective tool to engage with B2B audiences, or is the ROI just not worth it?  If you’re the least bit social media savvy,...

In May I was fortunate to be able to attend the recent UK Construction Week at Excel in London and see the strides forward an industry, that has become recognised as one of the biggest contributors to carbon emissions, is making in tackling the thorny issue of achieving Net Zero. In his keynote on day one, Lord Callanan, Under Secretary...

As a smaller business, it can be hard to know where to start when it comes to sustainability. Sure, we all do our best to use the right recycling bin at home, and bring our re-usable coffee cups to work. But with serious pressures now mounting from the government – which pledged to reach net-zero carbon emissions by 2050 –...

Another week, another round of mass layoffs in the tech sector. With Amazon (AWS) and Meta cutting thousands of jobs, and further layoffs at Salesforce and of course Twitter, it has felt a bit like the tech world has been imploding of late. This is of course concerning for us working in B2B tech PR, but more importantly for the...

It’s estimated that over 100 billion WhatsApp messages are sent each day. Yet, with many people using the platform to communicate with colleagues, friends, and even clients, it’s easy to imagine how the lines between personal and professional can be blurred. Take the recent leaking of WhatsApp messages from Matt Hancock as an example. Private texts from the former health...
