ICONS & MACHINES

Today’s content shoot was supposed to be about photos… but it became so much more. What started as a simple session turned into a journey of deep, hilarious conversations and learning new things that filled my heart. Huge thanks to this incredibly talented team - your artistic eye, gentle patience, and magic touch made me feel instantly at ease. You didn’t just capture moments; you created an experience I’ll never forget. Grateful beyond words!!

I worked with ICONS & MACHINES to capture exclusive behind-the-scenes images of my debut boxing match in London. Wow, I'm speechless. Even if I never box again, thanks to these images, I can literally just retire. I don’t think I’m ever going to have this sort of content again. The way you capture moments instead of photos is incredible. I’m not going to see pictures like this again. Well hopefully I do, if you come out and shoot me at future event. Was definitely a great experience working with you. And the irony is that I didn’t even know where you were throughout the event! Thank you!!!

Simply put, ICONS & MACHINES are brilliant researchers and exceptional storytellers. The vast media coverage they secured for Goldsmiths North 2023 can be traced right back to the groundwork they put in at the start of the campaign, during which, they spent many hours with our team; asking intelligent, probing questions. This deep dive into our culture enabled them to identify unique stories that the media valued - resulting in a string of high-profile broadcast, print & online interviews. ICONS & MACHINES is a PR agency that does detail every bit as well as it does creative. I absolutely recommend.

We hired ICONS & MACHINES to raise awareness for Goldsmiths North 2023. From the start, they committed to fully understanding our business via a series of meticulous fact-finding sessions. Following this, we were presented with a clear media strategy outlining exactly what they were going to do and why. Once the campaign began, Goldsmiths North enjoyed a string of interviews, features and detailed listings with every high-profile media brand we hoped for, including newspapers, radio and online. As a PR agency, ICONS & MACHINES really listens, delivers on their promises and are surprisingly communicative - keeping us informed of their progress at least twice a week. Working with them was highly professional, easy-going and fun. Thank you all... 2023 was our most visited weekend ever.

The team @ ICONS & MACHINES made me feel so comfortable earlier this year when I needed fresh visual content to support my online activity. Collaborative, attentive & great listeners, I honestly can't remember working with a PR agency this easy-going and energising. The delivered work far surpassed my expectations and fulfilled the brief in every way. I wholeheartedly recommend!_

I've used Icons and Machines a number of times to support my own media pitching. They always explain the logic behind all of their advice and recommendations, which is really empowering as it helps me to develop my own skills and become more self-reliant - it also feels like I can trust the advice more when I understand the reasons behind it. CK is always really fast to respond which is invaluable when I need to get a story out quickly, as was the case in 2022 when I was pitching my appearance on Kirstie's Handmade Christmas to local media. CK has worked on both sides of the media so his guidance is based on actual experience, as well as extensive knowledge. If you're looking for a PR agency who will get right under the skin of your business to provide the best service possible, look no further.

CK, Abi and the team at ICONS & MACHINES have worked across our group of companies for many years, serving as our copywriting consultants. Their technical and creative understanding is outstanding. A truly brilliant PR agency with an attention to detail I've not experienced before. You should check out their blog, it’s filled with incredible and interesting writing tips too.
