“Carolyn is one of those rare things: a great copywriter who also understands digital marketing, SEO and social media. She’s hardworking and a nice person too.”

James Crawford, managing director
Manchester PR agency PR Agency One.

We worked with Carolyn on the 2009 Manchester Food and Drink Festival, when she managed our PR campaign and social media identity. Carolyn did a fantastic job – she was creative, exceptionally hard working and her experience from the other side of the newspaper presses meant that she was a competent consultant. As well as this, Carolyn was a pleasure to work with – her enthusiasm, ‘get the job done’ attitude, and team spirit meant that she became a key member of the team. Highly recommended!

Carolyn has worked with AdviserPlus in writing e-newsletters and alerts for some of our major clients. She’s great to work with: personable and professional in equal measure.

“I’ve always found her to be very creative when coming up with article suggestions and skilful in writing engaging copy. I’d be happy to recommend Carolyn’s work to anyone.

Chris Tomlin, senior copywriter

Carolyn Hughes worked as the PR for the GNCCF for three years, handling the launch of this retail fair in Manchester in 2008 and then steering it to become the most prestigious contemporary craft fair in the North.  She made a tremendous contribution to the success of the show, helping to double our audience figures in the second year and generating PR worth over £450,000 over the three years including national press and magazine coverage. A great asset to the team!

Manchester Craft & Design engaged Carolyn to promote our summer exhibition Threadbare in 2010. From the outset Carolyn was a pleasure to work with; she captured the essence of the show and used her contacts to get us excellent coverage, ranging from editorials and reviews to listings.
