Testimonials

“Jayne and I were absolutely amazed with the amount of interest that our story generated - national TV, press and radio were contacting us at home and asking for our (and the car’s) appearance on TV. We were very grateful for the professional way that Jo assisted us with these requests. Geoff's photos taken for this story were absolutely superb, overall a fantastic job by BAV Media (Jo & Geoff).
Well done and a big thank you !"
Ian and Jayne Stringer, from Lincolnshire, who bought back their first car, August 2011

“Jo was able to talk me through everything and always very promptly returned my calls and kept me up to date with all enquiries. I would never have been able to cope with the sudden interest and media pressure without having the reassurance of Jo and BAV Media behind me. I would strongly recommend the use of Bavmedia. Thank you!”
Ruth Adams, owner of Smokey the Cat, from Northampton, March 2011

“Jo helped me to publicize a natural history story involving my book 'The Jewel Hunter" earlier this year, which generated considerable interest from both mainstream print media and radio. She knows the right people, how to get their attention and deliver what they want, and is efficiency personified. I'd recommend her in a heartbeat.”
Birdwatcher Chris Gooddie, from London, February 2011

“Dealing with Jo and Geoff was a breath of fresh air, they got us better coverage than we'd had via a bigger agency, stayed with us through the story - and still spoke to us afterwards! Jo's journalism made our little story into national and then international news. It was great for our reef just when we were trying to protect it.”
Diver Rob Spray, from Norfolk, November 2010

“I am a paramedic by profession but my other passion is photography. For over 30 years I have been recording the changing face of Peterborough. Jo Riley spotted this and thanks to her sterling efforts within 24 hours this very parochial story was covered in the Mail, Mirror, Sun, Daily Telegraph, Metro and Chat Magazine. It also attracted widespread international interest. What I liked about working with Jo, was the immediate replies to my emails and phone calls with regular updates. Nothing was too much trouble in trying to guide me through the maze. As a paramedic who is very naive to the cut and thrust of the media world I really feel I am in a safe pair of hands and that my best interests are not only pursued but also protected. I have no hesitation in highly recommending Bav Media with Jo and Geoff to anyone who is looking for a friendly, professional and efficient service that gets results. My excellent experience with them is testimony to that.”
Chris Porsz, Paramedic and Photographer from Peterborough, April 2010

“Trust a journalist ? I’d trust Jo Riley and Geoff Robinson – a great team with the local knowledge that makes all the difference. They didn’t patronise, they weren’t pushy, but the story and the pictures were still excellent, and reached  the national press.  It was a pleasure to work with them.”
Allan Brigham, Street Cleaner and Historian from Cambridge, Jan 2010

“Your agency is highly effective while maintaining the personal touch, a joy to work with."
Vincent Thurkettle, Goldpanner from Norfolk, Dec 2009

“BAV Media have done incredible work with giving a voice to plant conservation in the media, making stories both accessible and appealing to a wide audience. We have been constantly impressed by the factual accuracy of their pieces, which often deal with complex ecological issues. We have been hugely grateful for their promotion of Plantlife as an organisation, and find them a pleasure to work with.”
Dominic Price of the UK charity Plantlife, Nov 2009

“Jo approached me very professionally through the contacts at Cambridge University where my dog was undergoing pioneering treatment for spinal chord injury. She asked me if she could interview me about the process and my involvement within it regarding my dog. Jo was very professional and asked questions which were not intrusive but carefully selected to gain the best information and information which would be accessible within the media where the story was concerned. Jo was always polite and took time to contact me to inform me that the story had hit the major broadsheets and tabloids and the internet. I enjoyed the experience of being interviewed by this media professional and was pleased with her coverage of the story.”
Sarah Beech, from Birmingham, owner of Henry the Dog, Nov 2009
