Two award-winning Suffolk marketing firms are set to supercharge their offering after uniting in the New Year
Felixstowe-based Prominent PR has joined forces with its Ipswich neighbours Friel, bringing clients a complete, full-service PR and digital marketing offering.
Both businesses have worked on award-winning campaigns for well-known brands, with particular strengths in fields from hospitality to healthcare, construction to charities and business development to digital strategy.
Together, the new combined Friel team boasts former national and regional journalists, experienced PR professionals and business development specialists.
Clare Yelland, Managing Director of Friel and founder of Construction Anglia, said: “Uniting with Prominent PR is an incredibly exciting time for our agency.
“The Prominent team have already settled in well and have come armed with fresh ideas to enhance our PR offering.
“Together, we are going to capture the best of both agencies to elevate our services and deliver our clients an unrivalled marketing experience.”
Staff will continue to operate across both their respective offices ahead of a full-move to Friel’s bespoke new Ipswich Waterfront HQ later in the New Year.
Helen Rudd, Founder of Prominent PR, will now focus on her role as a Director of Strategy and Partnerships at Harwich Haven Authority.
She added: “It has been over a decade since Prominent first launched and in those 11 years we have made our mark on the national industry – scooping numerous awards alongside high-profile client acquisitions.
“Friel boasts a fantastic reputation and I am confident the new-look agency can offer clients a wider range of services to meet the growing demands of the sector.
“I wish the team and our clients the very best moving forward.”
