our success stories

I have worked with Karin for many years now. Karin is firstly an amazing person and someone i trust which for an business owner is very important.
‍
Karin always gives 110% and goes above the call of duty every time. She has amazing contacts and resources which have helped build the Vegusto Brand in the UK over the last 4 years.Its a joy to work with Karin.

We are working with Karin since quite some time and are very thankful for her support on the UK market. She is great to work with, full of ideas, activism and idealism. In every step we can feel she really loves our brand and goes every extra mile for it!

Karin has been handling our PR for over two years. The team has nothing but full of praise of her. Brand promotion just come naturally for Karin. She is always full of ideas of how to generate publicity for us. Once the idea is approved, she would just get on with the task and deliver results. Communication with Karin has always been easy and clear. We all enjoy working with her and can not imagine how we can do without her.  

I worked with Karin for the first year of my new business. She was just fantastic, she secured many sponsorship opportunities and got the company a huge amount of press coverage. Integrity is at the heart of everything she does and she got to know everything about my business and which opportunities were right for us. I would highly recommend, great PR and a lovely woman to work with.

I thoroughly enjoyed working with Karin. She is a ray of sunshine. She was the injection of positivity that both my business and I needed.

Karin’s choice to only work with companies that she believes in comes through in her passion and energy.  You can’t ask for a better person to promote your products!

My business was very quiet until I met Karin using her P R service to relaunch my business and it went double after a few months. Mad Promotions not only deliver what they promised but over delivered with marketing our  brand and become a friend with ongoing support!

Thanks Karin for all of your enthusiasm and energy in supporting and spreading the word of BoBo. Keep up the good work! We need more of you out there!

Karin is an absolute star – a campaigning dynmo!

Karin has worked on several successful projects to promote the Dr Hadwen Trust, most notably our 35th anniversary Gala Dinner held at the Hilton Hotel, London.

The Gala Dinner required a great deal of organisation – selection of venue, getting celebrities to attend, promotion of ticket sales, including to supporters of the Trust, and seemingly endless further arrangements.

Karin also MC-ed the whole evening, which was a great success and for which we received many congratulations and accolades from attendees. It was a very notable achievement for Karin.

Karin has also produced and distributed a number of press releases for the Trust on a range of topics, since the Gala Dinner.

Further still, from her array of media contacts, she was able to engage the interest of the Sunday People who ran an article on a local animal sanctuary that was hugely in debt and about to go under. Together with other fundraising efforts, the sanctuary was saved, a feat in no small measure attributable to the £14,000 raised from the Sunday People article. Karin is very hard working and full of commitment and energy. I would have no hesitation in recommending her as someone who will give 110% to achieve a successful promotion.

I am also aware that Karin has experience of working for other charities and campaigning groups. She has also devoted considerable time and effort into creating a veggie TV station on the internet, a bold venture that has attracted considerable attention.

Karin throws herself into each project with total passion and commitment – and she achieves great results.

If enthusiasm, determination, good humour and a refusal to give in are the elements necessary for success, you’ll do blindingly well.

If you entrust your professional future to Karin, expect to be pushed around! With the passion and enthusiasm that drives her, you will quickly find yourself at the heart of a series of interviews, podcasts, features in magazines...Available at any time, imaginative, she has the art of bringing you to the front of the stage, stepping aside with modesty. Beyond professional relationships, Karin is a person full of generosity and love for others. Simply a pleasure to work with her.

Karin has been a key enabler and facilitator in my business since 2012 and has become both a great business partner and friend; initially for a charity called K-9 Angels I cofounded and now building my vegan brand.
‍
Karin’s passion, knowledge, connections and tenacity in the vegan/ethical world of PR without doubt makes her a top contender in her field.
‍
This isn’t just a job for Karin. Every project she takes on is results driven and a 100% is given to build brand awareness. Karin’s friendly, upbeat and genuine personality is infectious and I always look forward to working with her again and again. If you are looking to build your vegan/ethical brand then Karin is your lady.
‍
I cannot sing Karin’s praises enough!

Mad promotions have acted as consultants for my company VBites. They are an excellent company and with Karin Ridgers at the helm I can see why. She has been a true professional and followed through with care and commitment with all we have requested of her. In addition she has created leads into industry media to benefit our company. I feel with their dedication any company would benefit greatly from working with their team.

I absolutely adore working with Karin. Not only is she one of the greatest people I’ve ever met but she is a PR mastermind like no other! Since working with Karin I can’t believe what she has achieved for my business. She is a genius! I have been interviewed by over 15 radio stations including several BBC stations, I’ve opened events, appeared as a guest speaker at some of the largest shows in my industry and that’s before we even talk about how many times my face has smiled back at me from inside glossy magazines and newspapers!
‍
If you are looking to raise your profile and get you and your business noticed I couldn’t recommend working with Karin highly enough!

She is one passionate and very connected lady – exactly what you need to take your business to the next level!

Karin is a fabulous person to work with who listens and provides a client centred service. Before working with Karin I was not very confident in wanting to be visible and she helped me see that I had a valuable message and cared about getting my message out in an authentic way.

She is enthusiastic and instinctive and has an amazing range of contacts which helped to promote my book on high profile Radio Stations and Magazines. Thank you Karin for giving me confidence and belief in myself and the message.

Karin’s dedication, passion and professionalism make working with her an absolute joy.  She’s highly innovative and creative and very well connected.  I can highly recommend her.

I met Karin at an event and was immediately attracted to her warm personality. When I found out she had her own PR company, I just knew I had to work with her having recently published my own book. She was very passionate and full of enthusiasm about my book and worked hard to promote it on my behalf, exploiting her contacts to get me into several online and physical publications. She even had me as a guest on her own radio show! I highly recommend working with Karin – she knows her stuff, she’ll genuinely care about you and you’ll have a laugh along the way!

I worked with Karin Ridgers and MAD-Promotions for the launch of my album Jewel in the Lotus. I was absolutely delighted with the hard work she put into my project.

She achieved media exposure, networking and promotion beyond my wildest dreams.

Karin understood my product and what I wanted to achieve from the outset. We created likely candidates from her comprehensive database and had massive success in reaching interested journos.

I received upwards of 40 mentions as results of Karin’s hard work.  She was a pleasure to deal with and always cheerful and enthusiastic.

When I met Karin, over a year ago, we instantly connected. Her professional work ethic made me trust her services, and it was her unwavering dedication to her clients and inspiring creativity that made her an invaluable asset to my business.

Since working with Karin my business profile has been raised exponentially, and I’ve been offered more business opportunities than ever before. Not only is Karin the best PR manager I’ve ever worked with, she is also a genuine and highly-valued friend.Working with Karin is like having a blast of wonderful ideas every second, sometimes even less than a second. We worked together on my PR for 10 months with wonderful and satisfying results.

She supported me like a friend and worked passionately for my cause. The best part for me was working with an ethical person who is also charitable.

It was great having Karin apart of our team! She really came through with some wonderful marketing ideas and opportunities and definitely helped spreading the word for our Health and Wellbeing exhibition. She has great contacts and definitely worth having on board for all future events we run.

I worked with Karin on a couple of projects to raise awareness of my raw chocolate brand when it first started up and also with my other business, Simply Soaps, to drive traffic to the website. I found Karin to be a buzz of ideas and creative energy, she was fabulous to work with.

Karin in second to none when its comes to PR. Her passion, enthusiasm and work ethic are unparalleled and she gets results!!

The time working together with Karin has been an absolute pleasure, she always goes the extra mile, is uncompromising in what she believes in and is someone we hold dear to our organisation. Thank you Karin!

It is a pleasure working with Karin. Her sincerity, enthusiasm and professionalism really stand out. Her promotional and PR work for me resulted in several offers to write articles for magazines and a year later the offers are still coming in. This has really helped me to get recognition and exposure for my work. I cannot recommend her services highly enough and will continue to work with her.

I have spent thousands of pounds with PR companies in the past promoting various ventures, none delivered really. Karin Ridgers however, has done the opposite. She exceeded my expectations and sincerely cared about my business, and me too. Do not go to another PR company. Work with Karin Ridgers, you will not be disappointed.

Karin has made a fantastic difference to my business! Not only has she identified ideas and angles that will make the media listen to what my business has to say, but she has written great press releases and followed them up with huge enthusiasm that makes it a joy to work with her. I have had many new clients as a direct result of the work Karin has done for me. I thoroughly recommend working with Karin!

Karin and I met at a plant-based living exhibition in London where Karin was hosting several sessions throughout the day. Observing Karin’s energy, enthusiasm, professionalism but also her down to earth practical nature, I made a point of connecting with Karin there and then and we have worked very successfully together on the launch of Planet Arborist. Karin has done a fantastic job in helping to develop our sustainability focused B2B brand both in the UK and internationally. Karin has lots of ideas and connections into the plant-based world that run deep as a result of many years in the sector working with all types of business and initiatives. Karin gets to know her clients very well, has great attention to detail and enthusiastically collaborates to develop a strategy that works for her clients and their objectives. I certainly recommend Karin for those who want to be in the right place at the right time with the right message.

At a time when our new business really needed to be seen by the masses Karin really excelled at consistent media attention for our brand. A consummate professional and a thoroughly lovely person too, Karin comes very highly recommended.

We have worked with Karin for two years now, and her energy and enthusiasm are second to none. We had not done much PR before and we needed vision and inspiration, which has been ably supplied by in Karin.  She is a joy to work with and I look forward to working with her in the future.  

We have been working with Karin at MAD Promotions with our PR.

Our profile has been raised within the industry media as well as in the Essex media.
I am delighted that The Echo has run a few articles about my company, I have given 2 radio interviews, as well as gained publicity in The Enquirer and the East Anglian Daily Times. The media release was written to suit journalists and will be added to our website.
Karin suggested promoting our ‘Top Tips’ on a regular basis and we are connecting with editors as we would like to write for an Essex publication as well.
We are confident that the publicity will help us in this regard.
Via MAD Promotions other opportunities have been sent to us in connection with Women’s magazines and even TV programmes.
Karin is dedicated, trustworthy and honest and I would recommend her for PR work.

Karin is an extremely likable person, and as well as being conscientious she has an incredibly caring approach to her work and her clients.  
I’ve learnt so much from her about PR and through her I have gained the confidence to go on the radio and talk about my work, and have the opportunity to be featured in a few publications, thus helping to raise the profile of my business.  

I know I couldn’t have achieved that all on my own.

When I first met Karin I was so impressed with her enthusiasm and passion that I instantly wanted to find out more about MAD Promotions.

After a meeting together where Karin found out more about my business I left everything in her capable hands.  Press releases were sent out on my behalf and then we waited.  This was the difficult time, as we all want instant results, but the wait was well worth it.  Karin has introduced my company to several publications and a radio station and the results have been 3 radio interviews, two publications and the possibility of a workshop at a road show.

I am delighted and the Image Practice is thrilled to recommend Karin to anyone who wants to be in the right publications to be seen.

Karin is bubbly and committed, and her enthusiasm and hard work shows that she really cares about her clients.
