HELLO AND WELCOME!

I'm Kerryn

A multi-award winning PR Specialist.

Over the past 20yrs, I have managed the PR for global brands like Visa, Barclaycard, AIG, Hiscox, Whirlpool, Nestlé, Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) and others, and have been an advisor and consultant to many small businesses and start-ups. 

For as long as I can remember, I've wanted to run my own agency but for a few reasons, I didn't take the plunge. That was until 2020, when a family member passed away shortly after being diagnosed with a rare, untreatable cancer at the age of 36. It made me realise our fears are insignificant in the face of death. We only have this moment, now, to live our best lives.

What has followed has been the most uplifting, inspiring and exciting few years. I set up my done-for-you PR service, 'Koola Communications', where I work with purpose-driven businesses making an impact in some way. This was quickly followed by 'The PR Engine' which aims to teach course creators, authors, entrepreneurs and any other business owners, and/ or their teams, how to do it for themselves in 10 minutes a day (or one hour a week).

My vision for The PR Engine is to encourage and equip small business owners to get visible as credible experts, which in turn drives demand and helps your business grow. I want to help you follow your dreams so you live your best life, with purpose, too.

Some of the brands I've worked with:

What people say:

“Kerryn has been a great support in getting us in front of new audiences. Before our initial consultation she had obviously conducted in-depth research into our brand/ website to develop trade and consumer angles, which meant that our 1-2-1 consultation was focussed and very action orientated. She coached us how to create a great tool kit which can be utilised and amended for future articles. She brough us leads in journalists which were aligned with our PR strategy and have managed 100% success rate..”

“My media skills and marketing weren't very good so I thought I'd get in touch with an expert, and I'm really glad I did. In three weeks, Kerryn's managed to introduce me to new networks I’d never have access to, she’s given me new ideas about how I can market my business and coached me in who to contact at various magazines and how, so I can write articles and get my name out there some more. Biggest of all, she has managed to get me in front of my target audience on a podcast which is number two in the ‘business and entrepreneurship’ podcasts in the country. Kerryn's just a lovely person and it's been a real pleasure to work with her. I don't hesitate to recommend her and her skills.”

- Rich

“Working with Kerryn was a wonderful experience.  My business is only a year old and I had no prior PR coverage, nor any knowledge of how to go about getting it.  Kerryn identified an opportunity suitable for my product, coached me on the information I would need to provide and helped me land a feature in an online magazine.  I’m absolutely thrilled, and can’t recommend her highly enough.”
