SERVING UP INNOVATION
When The Grounds of Alexandria approached us, they were particularly keen to increase the frequency of media coverage, as their previous PR agency under-delivered in this area. McKell Media managed a 16-month campaign which integrated the key pillars of this carefully-curated venue, including food, interiors, entrepreneurship and styling.

We averaged 9 placements per month, well above our original KPI of 4. Highlights included:
