TESTIMONIAL

I've worked regularly with Brian Meechan over many years including on organising, hosting and promoting events as well as on other matters where communications expertise was essential. He brings an innovative, dynamic and creative approach to communications, content, marketing and branding. Brian has a clear focus on identifying and delivering for different audiences and his advice has been invaluable. He brings a calm, collaborative and thoughtful manner to the team even when delivering to tight deadlines, under significant pressure. I would encourage any organisation to bring in Stay Gold Media for a supportive, encouraging and adaptable approach to producing high quality communications that resonate.
