Boosting a consultancy’s profile and presence
Helping a purposeful business raise its corporate profile, with PR, thought leadership and celebrating successes.
About our work
Nine Feet Tall is a Bath-based consultancy which specialises in delivering complex change by combining the power of people and technology.
As the firm entered its 20th anniversary year, Nine Feet Tall appointed us to deliver a proactive PR and communications strategy, designed to raise the company’s profile and enhance its existing marketing efforts.
Our approach centred on securing targeted media coverage for significant company milestones, people-focused initiatives, and exemplar projects.
As leaders in change management and a firm deeply committed to culture, we also pursued comment opportunities for senior team members to share their expertise.
To celebrate their achievements, we integrated a series of award entries into the content schedule.

Results
During 2024, we secured more than 50 pieces of media coverage. This coverage included pieces in target titles such as Consultancy.uk, Management Today, and HR Review, alongside regional media such as South West Business Insider, Bath Business News, Business Live South West and The Business Magazine.
Notably, this included widespread coverage following Nine Feet Tall being named on the Sunday Times Best Places to Work List, as well as carefully managed messaging around the firm’s acquisition by international consulting group Talan.
Our efforts also established key team members as thought leaders, securing their insights in features on workplace inclusivity, employment trends, and organisational design.
Beyond media, we supported with award submissions, collaborating closely with the team to craft entries for the Change Awards, Management Today’s Women in Leadership Power List, Culture Pioneer Awards, and TBE Awards. Every entry earned a shortlist spot in 2024 and Nine Feet Tall secured two awards and received a highly commended in a third.
We continue to support Nine Feet Tall as the business looks to grow its offering in new sectors as part of wider group of companies.
