Five Star PR | Testimonials

Five Star PR deliver...full stop.

As the Supervising Producer of Australia's number one travel show GETAWAY, I am constantly sourcing story ideas on new and interesting destinations. After 15 years on air we are always on the look out for something different, a new angle or a new way of telling our story.

Five Star PR understand the time pressures of TV as well as the needs of us as Producers... they are truly professional and always deliver the goods.

Also, Nicole and her team are usually my first port of call when things fall through with other operators and Five Star's ability to deliver quality guides, operators and local contacts is something that we value immensely.

I am constantly singing Five Star PR’s praises - this is how PR should be done!!

Karen Warner, Supervising Producer Getaway, Channel 9

Five Star PR is the most dynamic public relations company we have ever worked with. It combines action and words to make it all happen.

We've found successful PR to be as much about enthusiasm as it is professionalism, contacts and market savvy. Five Star PR understands it all.

Phil Doyle, Marketing & Communications Manager, D&D Technologies Pty Ltd

Five Star PR is one of the most professional and effective PR firm's in the travel industry.

Everything about Nicole and her dedicated and enthusiastic staff is five star – from organising famils to product launches to timely media releases.

If I needed a travel destination to be promoted, I’d go straight to Five Star PR.

Five Star PR provided valuable counsel for three years with the JPMorgan Chase Corporate Challenge in Sydney, bringing invaluable third party credibility to the event through savvy media relations.

Nicole and her team have very effectively media managed celebrities such as Pat Rafter, Cathy Freeman and John Eales, concepted excellent ideas for our event and initiated strong story angles for business and targeted consumer media.

The results included a three quarter page story on page three in the Australian Financial Review, Boss Magazine, Sydney Morning Herald, television coverage every year on a minimum of three stations as well as several radio interviews. These results helped raise the profile of JPMorgan in Australia and resulted in the Corporate Challenge becoming a "must-attend" event for the corporate community.

I have always found Nicole and the Five Star PR agency to be friendly, helpful and very professional.

Functions arranged for Five Star PR clients have a 'special style'...quirky ..fun and always fresh.

Integrity is a vital factor in an industry where 'smoke and mirrors' can dominate the landscape - the Five Star PR team has got it.

Tony Delroy, Radio announcer, 2BL

I was most impressed with Nicole's Five Star PR. Nicole had less than a week notice before my brife trip back to Australia, visiting many states. She and her team were able to work with my very tight schedule, and arranged many newspaper/radio interviews within the very short time. It was most impressive and most enjoyable working with Nicole and her team, as Nicole and her firm have built very strong and effective relationship with the media.

Having worked with Nicole and the Five Star team on a fairly regular basis for some years as travel editor of Adelaide's Sunday Mail I have found they neatly blend professionalism, performance and personality.

Whether it be a press release, a media conference or a full-blown international familiarisation, in my experience they have been both friendly and faultless which in turn gives me great confidence when dealing with them.

Brad Crouch, Travel Editor Sunday Mail Adelaide

Five Star PR delivers excellence. Managing Director Nicole Lenoir-Jourdan has been in the travel industry for over 15 years. She has the contacts, the skills and the ethics to execute PR campaigns with true creativity and unrivalled results.

 

Five Star PR is successful in the travel industry because of their boutique nature, their never say die but friendly attitude, and their excellent contacts.

 

I would have no hesitation in recommending them as one of the best PR companies specializing in travel for the Australian market.

Since they began working with Wales Tourist Board (now Visit Wales) in late 2002, Five Star PR immediately grasped our ‘Challenger’ mentality of thinking outside the box in their approach to our PR work.

As well as arranging on-territory press visits in Wales, Five Star has delivered first class events to promote our work within the Media and Travel Trade at home in Australia. For the past three years they have gone out to media locally in Australia, hosting media lunches in all the major cities around St David’s Day, culminating in the highly successful Travel Trade St David’s Day Golf Day in Sydney.

By keeping in touch with what’s new and different in Wales, Five Star has managed to secure Wales slots on The Great Outdoors and Getaway travel shows as well as Fresh TV and the Today show (in conjunction with Visit Britain).

There was a minimum of 95 pieces on Wales run in 2004. Approximate value is $2.8 million in advertising space unweighted. With PR weighting x 3 publicity value is $8.4 million.

Jonathan Jones, CEO, Wales Tourist Board

As a medium size Sales & Marketing Company representing varied Travel Products, we are constantly searching for creative and innovative ways to reach our Target Markets.

Karen Davies, General Manager, Discover the World Marketing

Thank you to Five Star PR for doing such a great job in assisting Tourism NSW to promote our Regional Flagship Events. These events are so important to increasing tourism into regional areas in New South Wales and with the help of Five Star PR we saw a direct increase in visitation numbers.

Five Star PR went above and beyond what we were expecting while staying within our budget constraints - what you want but don't often get from public relations companies. Thanks Nicole for all your assistance.

As a not-for-profit organisation, Peru's Challenge focuses all of its funding towards helping local communities living in extreme poverty in Peru.

 

We do not have a budget to advertise and promote the great work we do which is essential to gain support in the highly competitive world of volunteer organisations.

Thanks to the pro-bono assistance given to us by Five Star PR, we can not only continue our work direcly within the communities, but we are becoming recognised as a leading not-for-profit volunteer organisation working in Peru.
