Media and public relations

Media and public relations is one of Magenta’s core services

Magenta started out as a media and public relations firm and it remains one of our core strengths.

Amongst Magenta’s team are former industry journalists and press officers who understand exactly what makes a compelling and attractive story.

We speak to the media on behalf of our clients on a daily basis. This could be to proactively pitch a feature idea, to respond to breaking national news with client commentary, to sell-in a client press release, to discuss a client case study, or to respond to a direct journalist enquiry.

National and trade media and public relations

The facilities management and built environment media can rely on us to provide them with what they need. We also work on a national scale, and we have secured coverage for our clients across mainstream national media debating some of the UK’s most popular stories.

Clients have been placed in media outlets such as:

Sky News
Financial Times
Daily Telegraph
Forbes
The Times
The Guardian
The I
City A.M
