I have worked with Becks for over 10 years and she
has always given 100%. I owe her an awful lot of
gratitude for all the extra time she has put in
to help my various projects!"

| I
have dealt with Eventageous on an almost weekly
basis for the best part of the last ten years during
which time I have been Motoring Editor of the Daily
and Sunday Express newspapers.Throughout that time,
I have no doubt that the coverage given over to
Haynes products and their other clients has been
primarily down to the professionalism and efficiency
of their staff which in my view is second to none.
They are not only one of the best PR agencies I
deal with but they are unquestionably the best publisher
PRs out there at the moment. I would have no hesitation
about recommending them for anyone looking to be
represented by a new PR agency. Nat Barnes, Motoring
Editor - Daily and Sunday Express |
"Rebecca
and her team joined the Steam Car project 5 years ago
and ever since that time have worked tirelessly in helping
us achieve our goal of breaking the Land Speed Steam
Record. Without Rebecca and her list of contacts I can
confidently say the Steam Car Project would have struggled
to find the valued sponsorship a project such as this
requires. Rebecca joined the team at Edwards Air Base
to control the media, however she went the extra mile
and became the ‘chief cook and bottle washer’
and the team joker, keeping spirits high in the team….
Truly ‘one of the lads’ Whilst out in America
Rebecca’s team back in the UK changed their working
day to coincide with the time difference – this
enabled Rebecca to send the news bulletins to her staff,
who then informed the world’s media how the attempt
was progressing. I could go on singing Rebecca’s
praises, there is so much to say, however to win an
award such is this is a great honour and one Rebecca
and her team truly deserve"

'It
was a pleasure working with Eventageous PR here
at Rovers. Everything was organised to the highest
quality, we had queues around the stand due to the
hard work in promoting the event, but everyone who
turned up was well catered for and left with a smile
on their face. I would have no hesitation in recommending
Eventageous PR for any PR event, they are a delight
to work with'

"In
the burgeoning field of public relations, there
is manifold mediocrity, and shining lights are
rare. Therefore it has been a pleasure to discover
that Rebecca Nicholls, who leads a first-class
team at Eventageous PR, is one of the latter.
In her transition from one-woman operation to
the head of a respected public relations firm,
Rebecca has, in the decade I have known her, lost
none of the campaign consistency, accuracy, and
strength of editorial depth that were clearly
there from the beginning. Qualities that the Press
Association, at the heart of Britain's media and
newspaper industry, itself seeks to promote.
Never intrusive, always supportive, and able to
present the necessary facts in a concise, print-ready
form, she is a godsend to the busy national motoring
media journalist, expertise which has clearly
been passed on to the colleagues she has nurtured
as Eventageous PR has grown. They are, indeed,
a credit to Rebecca's own considerable communication
talents.
On a personal level, I can attest too, to Rebecca's
genuinely caring nature: at a time of family tragedy,
she found the time - when her workload must have
been considerable - to write long, supportive
e-mails that were a source of great comfort. And
Rebecca was the only one, among a myriad of motoring
contacts, to go that extra yard.
In summary, I would unreservedly recommend Rebecca
and Eventageous PR to anyone wanting the best
value they can get for their media pound."

'I can’t
thank Eventageous enough for the way they have looked
after me and promoted my little book.
'They’ve been first-class in every thing they’ve
done - so good, in fact, that I even found myself
queuing up to buy a copy of the book…until
someone told me that the bloke who was meant to
be signing them hadn’t turned up!'

'Rebecca
was tasked with managing the PR campaigns for a
number of our most important books and new ranges.
Her enthusiasm, professionalism, networking ability
and creative thinking ensured these titles received
invaluable on-brand media coverage and consumer
awareness, but crucially also assisted our sales
team in exceeding sales forecasts. In 2003 Rebecca’s
peers recognized her ability when ‘The Baby
Manual’ PR campaign, which she orchestrated,
won three gold awards at the IPR awards ceremony
including the ‘Grand Prix Award’ for the
best overall campaign. This creative and cost effective
PR campaign played a key role in ensuring the sales
success of ‘The Baby Manual’, and the
book proved to be a huge hit and ended the year
among the top three selling books Haynes published
in Europe that year'

'Rebecca arranged a press launch
at Prodrive. The launch captured the essence of
Prodrive, it's products, history and technology.
There was an array of quality media in attendance.
I was pleased with how the event was managed and
the amount of positive coverage generated .I would
not hesitate in recommending 'Eventageous PR'
for events and PR campaign management'

PR did a fantastic job promoting my autobiography,
which received widespread publicity. I was
interviewed by various national newspapers
and also appeared on TV and radio, helping
sales of the book exceed expectations."

'I had
been out of football for over thirty years
and was apprehensive about the reception
my book would receive because of the negative
press generated by the media about me at
the time.
I need not have worried because the publishers
commissioned Rebecca and her team to publicise
the book. Rebecca and her team proved to
be consummate professionals, nothing was
too much trouble they went way beyond what
was necessary. The book has proved to be
a sell out success and that is due in no
small measure to Eventageous PR. Stu Sprake
and Tim Johnson, the authors, are going
to write more books in the future and I
know that they would like to use Eventageous
PR due to the impressive campaign. Rebecca
also became a good friend during this time
and I would even like her to become my agent!'

'Rebecca arranged a launch
for us at the Audi Forum in Mayfair; it included
many top motoring personalities and there was a
huge array of press in attendance. We were thrilled
with how the event was managed and the amount of
PR exposure. I would not hesitate in recommending
Rebecca's business 'Eventageous PR' for events and
PR campaign management'

'A great deal of thought and
effort was made in the planning and execution of
the marketing of my book Concorde The Inside Story.
The success of the sales has been largely due to
Rebecca’s skill, tact and drive. I have had
a long experience of marketing successes and failures
during the sixty years in which I have been involved
in the aviation industry and I cannot commend her
ability more highly. She possesses a high level
of skill and knowledge, tact where necessary, great
attention to detail and a considerable drive and
determination. In my opinion she is ‘Exceptional’.

"This
is my first foray into publishing, and I have been
thrilled to work with Eventageous as the PR company.
They have managed to arrange numerous TV appearances
for me and literally 60 -70 local radio interviews
to publicise my book. I am still somewhat rushed
off my feet with book signings and appearances and
am amazed at how well the book launch has gone.
Rebecca and Emma have been tremendous, and I thank
them wholeheartedly for their enthusiasm for the
entire project."

"Rebecca
is so efficient and well organised that campaigns,
events and interviews are managed with military
precision. She has high standards and is committed
and enthusiastic to whatever she applies herself
too, but also expects the same from others."

"When
it comes to men's health few event/PR companies
can claim to have caught the attention of government
and the media at the same time. For whatever reason
the health of men is not a very 'sexy' topic so
getting information out there and involving the
main players is never easy. The men's health forum
(MHF) has always struggled with this conundrum but
when Rebecca Nicholls and her team were brought
on board for National Men's Health week 2010 things
changed, dramatically. Top celebrities queued up
to take part in our event hosted in West Ham football
ground. The new minister of public health turned
up to add her weight as a nurse to the Question
of Health programme. Much more to the point we gained
a large amount of sponsorship which more than covered
the cost of the event."

"Of
all the PR-type people that I work with in my
role as a motoring scribe/editor/broadcaster,
I have to say that you are among the most professional
and most conscientious."
Iain Robertson
“Rebecca
has a great talent in her chosen sphere. She did
a brilliant job of handling the pr and publicity
at Haynes Publishing, for which I have written
several books over the years. She understood the
subject matter inside out and had the ability
to get the story out there. She was also highly
supportive and proactive in keeping me up to date
with reviews and feedback, without ever having
to be chased.
“She’s easy to get along with, great
company and capable of working at high energy
levels in any conditions. She’s not fazed
whether she’s working in the RAC Club in
London or out in a less hospitable environment
such as Edwards Air Force Base, Mojave Desert.
“You want someone who can pick up your ball,
run with it, and score – look no further.”
