Using experienced media crisis managers, Due North can be available at short notice to help you plan, manage and control negative events and situations.

We will come to you, analyse the issue, suggest the way forward, write statements, pre-empt possible questions and draft suitable answers and handle media calls to minimise damage to you organisation.

When the crisis is over we can help you develop strategies to get you back on track.

Media Training

All organisations need people who understand and are comfortable when dealing with the media – this can range from being able to spot a good news story to being confident to front the cameras and facing reporters in a crisis.

Due North Communications can arrange media training from short sessions on explaining how the media works and what makes news to full-on crisis preparation including on-camera practice.

Internal Communications

Informed and engaged staff are effective staff. Are you certain your team understands and buys into your business values? Do they understand what you are trying to achieve and how your business intends to develop?

Due North Communications can work with you to analyse and assess your staff communications – as well as their perception of your communications – and develop ways to enhance them.

This can be anything from a simple staff newsletter to intranet development, team building and away days.

Marketing

Our experienced and qualified marketers can develop your overall marketing and communications strategy, plan your budget and implement your plans. This can cover anything from re-energising your business to new product launches and business to business communications.
