    🎉Today is #OwnBusinessDay and I’m reflecting on the journey that led me here. 🎤I began my career as a qualified broadcast journalist, reporting for the BBC and ITN. 🚝💷👷♀️From there, I moved into senior PR roles for high-profile firms like Network Rail, BAE Systems, RBS Group, and Bechtel, gaining invaluable experience along the way. In 2021, I took the leap and set up Positive Story PR consultancy, helping founders of sustainable B2B tech start-ups, engineering, and infrastructure firms win business and investment through strategic PR. After becoming a chartered PR practitioner in 2023, this year, I expanded with Jane Griffin PR, offering hands-on PR workshops and courses for entrepreneurs, founders, and small business owners. It’s been an incredible journey and I can’t wait to see what the future holds. 😊 Here's to all the other business owners celebrating today! What was your journey like? I would love to know what your path to running your own business looked like! #SmallBusiness #PRConsultant #OwnBusinessDay

    ❓ Is your business PR-ready?! 🤔 You might even be thinking, what does 'PR-ready' even mean?! Well, if you are considering doing PR for your business, the first thing a journalist will do is check out your branding, digital and social media and marketing collateral etc to make sure you are professional and 'who you say you are'. And even if you're not wanting to do any PR at the moment, tidying up and getting your external presence in order will also help your business look attractive to customers and investors! 😍 Next week, I'm launching a 5-day challenge to help you get your business looking PR-ready! 🏆 From Monday 30th September to Friday 4th October, we'll complete tasks together to ensure your business is looking its best! You can sign up in the link for my free PDF and for a daily email on the tasks you'll need to complete! I'll also be here on LinkedIn to cheer you on! 👏🏻 See you there! #visibilitychallenge #prready #smallbusinesssuccess

    Hello to all my lovely new and old followers! I wanted to introduce myself for those of you who don't know me. I'm Jane, the founder of Positive Story and I'm a PR strategist and PR coach. ⭐ A little about my story: I started my career nearly 30 years ago (gulp!) as a BBC and ITN radio and television reporter and then spent over 20 years in senior PR roles with high-profile finance, rail, engineering and tech companies including RBS Group, Bechtel, BAE Systems, Eurotunnel and Network Rail. Three years ago, I set up my PR consultancy, Positive Story Limited, focusing on sustainable tech startups and last year I became a CIPR chartered PR practitioner. Here are some fun facts about me: I. I love upholstering chairs! 💺 2. I’m an advanced scuba diver 🌊 3. I speak six languages at varying levels – can you guess what they are? I’m on a mission to help startups, founders and entrepreneurs to get fame, win business and raise investment with strategic PR. I’m excited to share my experience, tools and PR secrets so you can get your business in the media with a clear strategy behind it. I provide 'done for you' consultancy services through Positive Story and later this year I will also be launching 'DIY' PR services, including a strategic PR course and book to help with this! I'll be sharing PR tips on my personal profile and am looking forward to building a lovely community of PR go-getters! Thank you for following along and supporting my journey, I’m excited to get to know you better! 🥰 #prcoach #prtips #getinthemedia #strategicpr #prstrategy #startups #startup #pr #prstrategist #prconsultant

    🚀👩🚀🤖 What a fantastic day at the Festival of Speed at The Goodwood Group yesterday! While the motor racing was thrilling, the real highlight for me was spending time with my 6-year-old daughter at the Future Labs exhibition. The tech on display was mind-blowing: from companies removing debris from space to mapping the ocean floor, creating the world's tallest robot, and using data to enhance drone surveying. We were wowed by the ultra-realistic real-time holograms and the VR tools used to train astronauts. Seeing my daughter using VR goggles to interact with astronaut Tim Peake, playing with a robotic dog, and creating her own hologram was absolutely priceless. It was inspiring to see her excitement, and I hope it encourages her—and other children—to consider careers in STEM. Check out the photos for a glimpse of our incredible experience and thanks to the amazing companies who hosted us! 🚀👩🚀🤖 #FestivalOfSpeed #Goodwood #FutureLabs #TechInnovation #techstartups #STEM #VR #spacetech #dronetechnology #robotics Privateer Space Astroscale Levidian Dexory Sheffield Robotics Seeai GeoAcoustics Ltd Metaverse VR Ltd AIRLANDER LIMITED

    📣 “Make us famous!” In November 2022, Salinity Solutions reached out for help to raise awareness of its innovative wastewater technology. They started with just three sales leads. Now they've made their first sale, signed a manufacturing agreement, recently secured a further £2 million in investment, signed sales deals in the UK, France, Chile and India, and have over 60 new sales leads. Salinity Solutions’ founder Tim Naughton shares their journey in the ‘Don’t Waste Water’ podcast hosted by Antoine Walter. Listen to the latest episode to find out how this exciting startup and University of Birmingham spinout has grown into a global venture (and how PR has helped them - mentioned between 10.38 and 11.17). #PR #techstartups #innovation #wastewatertechnology #businessgrowth #investment #salesleads #globalexpansion #engineering #watertech
