About
We Are Sharp
Sharp isn’t your run-of-the-mill PR and communications agency. We like to do things a bit differently.
We’re great at all the traditional stuff – we’ve got awards to prove it, but we like to push the boundaries.
We work with food, drink, and travel brands, helping them to communicate the right message at the right time to the right people. We’re exceptional at it, whipping up consumer and trade interest in our founders, producers, restaurants, retailers, farmers, manufacturers and distributors.
PR is our bread and butter, and the fundamentals of PR, messaging, authority, and reputation will always be the heart and soul of this agency. Whether we’re managing your socials, running your Google ads or doing a full brand development, we’ll always apply the filter of reputation and how well you relate to your customers and community.
Great PR and communications isn’t about being loud; it’s about turning up the heat on the sales figures, cooking up genuine trust, positioning you as the go-to authority in your niche, spicing up your reputation, lighting the gas on your web traffic, presenting improved visibility, shining a spotlight on your brand, bringing more folk through the door, and turning your brand into a household name.
As for our team? Strategic and fun to work with, they’re creative wizards producing extraordinary results. The results they achieve are remarkable, and they’ve got the stats to prove it.
Let us be your secret ingredient.
“Working with the team at Sharp Relations to kickstart our PR has been such a positive experience -one that garners great results across all areas every time. “The working relationship we enjoy is led by AJ and her teams’ expertise across the industry, both regionally and nationally, and as a client, we always feel included in the decision-making process.
“The attention to detail is second to none, and the whole team is friendly and supportive. We are regularly offered exciting opportunities and ideas to open up our audience and exposure to the hospitality sector. We can always call upon the team individually to ask questions and get their help and reassurance.
“Sharp Relations really understand us as a business, and they expertly convey the sentiment and messages we want to share with the press about our product, through channels direct to the consumer, and to vital trade customers.”
Sharon Robson
Marketing Director of Luxlo Spirits
“The service provided by the team at Sharp was first class all the way! We didn’t want to work with a big PR company so when we got introduced to AJ through another small family-run company, it was a natural choice for us.
“A really great team, who loves working with smaller companies like us and making us feel special. We really enjoyed working with them. They are such a professional and friendly team with a real can-do attitude!
“They managed to get us into the publications which we couldn’t get into ourselves. They tirelessly pushed and talked about our wines. Our contact was Amy, who was so efficient and an absolute joy to work with. Jo also looked after us really well. There is a real sense of a collaborative team culture at the agency. We couldn’t recommend Sharp Relations more. An absolute pleasure to work with!”
Anna Grent
Marketing Director of Champagne and Chateaux
“Within the first few months working Sharp Relations, we saw an increase of 250% in our overall website sales. Last year, they generated over 100 pieces of positive digital coverage for the brand in the last quarter of the year, and this created an incredible 450% increase in sales, comparing that same Christmas period.
“We’re really pleased with the results that have been achieved by Sharp Relations. They deliver measurable metrics and always hit their KPIs.
“We would recommend Sharp Relations to any food businesses looking to build their brand, improve their visibility or drive sales and footfall.
“The team is efficient, knowledgeable and always does exactly what they say they will do, we really enjoy working with them.”
Rosie Collins
Marketing Director of Macknade
“Sharp Relations has ensured we have had great press coverage; we’ve been featured in everything from The Times to glossy and weekly magazines, and they have helped us to engage key bloggers and influencers -it’s been phenomenal!
“We have got so many sales and contracts off the back of the press we have had as well as receiving global recognition as brand –we now have businesses from Asia, America and Canada all are interested in working with us.
“The results have been amazing, and we would absolutely recommend Sharp Relations!”
