The launch of the Attagirls project was a complex web of target demographics and media messages encompassing the book, the film and a pilot scholarship. To further complicate the process, the book alone is equally appealing to a wide range of readers. Our publicist Jo Welch worked tirelessly to identify, segregate and strategically target a variety of messages which resulted in an overwhelmingly successful launch and far beyond what we expected. Jo makes it a priority to formulate a deep understanding of the client’s needs and to creatively identify a range of new possibilities. She is truly committed and one of the few people I know who answers my emails at 11pm and at 5am. We are deeply indebted to Jo and her team and we would highly recommend the services of The Cotswold PR Company.

Jo, Last evening was a splendid close to 4 frantic days and I wanted to take the time to thank you for your overwhelming support and accommodation at every step of the way. You are a star who came through for me on all fronts.
From the making the venue available to the bespoke menu, the produce, plating, presentation, serving styles, flowers, guests list, ever burgeoning numbers, wait staff attire, and birthday cakes, you put in long, gruelling hours in the lead up and did a terrific job executing the evening’s celebrations under very challenging circumstances. The true glory of the evening is yours - I certainly could not have orchestrated it without your tireless efforts, graciousness and responsiveness to my many requests. You have gone above and beyond for me and it has been a joy, and privilege, to work with like-minded individuals with an eye for perfection like yourself.
Enormous thanks again. You made the evening sparkle, despite the rain.
