Hi From Us

Welcome to Chocolate PR

Chocolate PR is an award winning agency passionate about raising the bar and giving the industry a better name.

Founded by Jo Swann in 2004 and still managed by her today, Chocolate PR is driven by passion for helping businesses benefit from the power of PR, with a specialism for working with growth businesses and ambitious entrepreneurs. In 2018 we are also more committed than ever to working with small and medium sized businesses as well as the big brands, to help businesses flourish through PR.

With the head office in Leeds, Yorkshire, the team also have offices in London and support clients nationally, and globally.

“Whether you’re a growing company in Yorkshire or a female entrepreneur in London, we can offer you all-round support so you benefit from our 20 years experience in the PR industry.”

More than just Press Releases

We’re established as a leading award-winning PR agency and can support you with PR campaign planning, helping to set positive foundations for raising your profile, as well as a press office service, building media relationships and working to get you in the press. We also love carrying out PR training and coaching to share our knowledge more widely and encourage those new to PR to embrace it.

In Safe Hands

Our experience is vast – and invaluable. We know that good PR requires much more than just a well-crafted press release. We understand the challenges facing SMEs and how difficult it can be to stand out in crowded markets. We also value the business opportunities that the media can bring, when combined with a great PR strategy – and this is when it gets exciting.

We’ve helped clients win awards, be approached for lucrative partnerships, attract investors, obtain high profile speaking opportunities, become paid spokespeople in their industry and build the value of their brand as part of their exit strategy.

We’ve enjoyed sharing our clients stories with The Guardian, BBC, Cosmo, Daily Mail, Huff Post, ITV, Grazia, Woman & Home, Forbes…. as well as many, many more including local media across the country.

Now it’s your turn! Say Hi today to see how we could help you achieve your goals.
