Consultants Specialising in Lifestyle and new Companies

Over thirteen years ago Sarah and Katie combined their skills and formed Silks PR & Marketing.

We offer all aspects of Marketing, Sales and PR advice and have enthusiasm, confidence and passion for our clients' businesses. We work with clients on an annual retainer or project basis and help them to achieve their goals from minor rebranding to full scale product launches and local, regional and national press.

Current clients include Partridges of Sloane Square who offer 'good things for the larder', the couture designer Fiona Clare, and Go Emu who produce colourful travel and lifestyle accessories. We also work for a small number of charities including Glass Door Homeless Charity on a pro bono basis.

Together we founded The Directory which successfully promotes over 90 businesses owned, run or recommended by the parents, teachers and past pupils of Thomas's London Day Schools. 

We help our clients grow their businesses by devising successful marketing strategies and organising appropriate PR in relevant national press, tv and magazines.

Our skills include the production of websites, creating customer databases and email newsletters, managing social media accounts, organising events, introducing clients to new customers and much, much more.
