Leanne is an extremely talented and hardworking PR professional, with a wealth of knowledge and experience in the industry. During our time working together, Leanne implemented some fantastic initiatives and processes within the PR team, in order to help the team run more efficiently and productively. Leanne is also a great team leader and clearly very invested in helping her team to grow and develop in their careers and roles. Leanne also has a great deal of experience launching and executing creative, data-led and strategic PR campaigns and tactics, in line with business and performance goals. Her knowledge in this area means that she would be a great person to advise, guide and implement PR strategies within agency and in house teams. Alongside her experience within the industry, Leanne is also a kind, thoughtful and inspiring person to work with.
Leanne ran a digital PR training session with us which was thorough, engaging and obviously based on years worth of industry knowledge. Her comms about the session were clear and organised. I would not hesitate to recommend Leanne to any business looking to increase their digital PR expertise.
Leanne was a pleasure to work with on a number of PR campaigns we collaborated on recently. She was very attentive and drove great results in a short amount of time. I would recommend Leanne to any brand / agency!
We've been working with Leanne for over 4 months now who has been working as our Interim SEO Director. The work she has done has been fantastic, we were under resourced in our SEO Team and needed someone to come in and provide clear structure, improve our processes and hold us accountable on our work to our clients. We are now looking to work with Leanne long term as we continue to improve our SEO offering, systems, tools and processes. Her experience, insight and knowledge has allowed us to move in a positive direction and as a CEO it is comforting to have this level of support as we continue to grow as an agency. I would highly recommend Leanne, but part of me doesn't want to as I would prefer to keep her just for Bobble, which is the biggest compliment I can give.
Leanne is the most diligent, process-driven and quick-learning marketer I've ever worked with (and there's been hundreds). Never succumbing to the easy path, Leanne tackles every task she undertakes with a relentless passion to achieve goals and resolve issues on behalf of the wider Banc team and all clients. When Leanne is set on a task, you know you're going to get 100% from her and her team. Her unapologetic approach to digital helps clients uncover and resolve deeply-hidden legacy issues which hamper their ongoing successes. Her holistic view of digital and marketing really maximises the impact of her work and her team's efforts. As a senior manager and department lead at Banc, Leanne has significantly improved the team training and growth processes, helping junior members of the team grow and develop at a great rate. The people who have worked under her tutelage at Banc are significantly ahead of their peers thanks to Leanne's training - which has been a huge benefit to the department and wider business. Plus, she's a wonderful person to work with - a great laugh and a really kind heart.
Leanne is a fantastic manager with outstanding knowledge of content marketing and digital PR. She is extremely detail-orientated and supportive of her team. She’s also a wonderful person.
Every now and then you find a person you know you can trust to do a job properly. Leanne is one of these people. If I could bottle what Leanne brings and sell it I would. We employed her to help us with DPR and the process from start to finish was done with absolute ease. Her proposal was exceptionally detailed, her work was done without any fuss and her results were amazing. DPR results for B2B clients are hard to find but every month without any real input from myself Leanne produced the goods. She should charge more!
Leanne has been amazing to work with, we couldn't have asked for more. As a small business it was really important to us that we picked the right partner for our SEO and Digital PR work, and from Day 1 we felt we had chosen perfectly with Leanne. She took the time to properly understand our goals, priorities, and key audiences, which meant her ideas were always relevant and well thought through, and really supported where we wanted to go as a business. She helped us secure coverage in places like The Times, HR Director, and a wide range of local press, and we’ve seen clear value from her work across both website performance and wider commercial KPIs. She’s proactive, easy to work with, and great at keeping momentum going - particularly good for small teams with a lot on! She genuinely cares about delivering work that makes a difference, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to any team looking for a creative, commercially minded digital PR and SEO freelancer.
I’ve loved working with Leanne. From day one everything felt seamless - she made the process easy, and took a huge amount of thinking off our plate. Leanne consistently delivered brilliant results, securing us headlines in some fantastic publications including The Times, The HR Director, London Daily, and Yahoo News. Her approach was thoughtful, proactive, and always aligned with what we were trying to achieve as a business. Beyond the results, Leanne is wonderful to work with. She’s responsive, organised, and genuinely invested in doing great work.
