Engagement

Three ways to work together.

Pick the basis that fits the moment. The standard of work never changes.

  • 01

    Fractional

    TIDE Studio embedded in your business on a daily, weekly, monthly or quarterly basis.

    Best for organisations that need senior communications capability without a full-time hire.

  • 02

    Project

    Strategic communications development, planning and delivery for a defined piece of work with a defined outcome.

    Best for launches, campaigns, reputation moments and CSR programmes.

  • 03

    Campaign Partner

    An ongoing retained partnership across your communications campaigns. Minimum hours and number of campaigns apply.

    Best for sustained media presence and momentum.

Our process

Five steps, in order.

Every engagement runs the same spine — so you always know what happens next, and what it is meant to achieve.

Step 03 in practice — collaboration alongside your team.
  1. Step 01 of 05

    Initiate

    A free consultation to understand the business, the objective and the audience that matters most.

  2. Step 02 of 05

    Partnership

    We agree the basis — fractional, project or campaign — with scope, timelines and the measures of success in writing.

  3. Step 03 of 05

    Collaboration

    Strategy becomes delivery: messaging, media, content and internal comms, built and run alongside your team.

  4. Step 04 of 05

    Results

    We measure as we implement, tracking coverage, sentiment, reach and the commercial outcomes behind them.

  5. Step 05 of 05

    Success

    Full transparency on the data, a clear read on what worked and why, and the next phase planned from evidence.

Measurement & accountability

Wemeasureasweimplement—andsharethedatainfull.

No vanity metrics, no month-end surprises. You see the same dashboard we do: what is working, what is not, and what we are changing next.

  • 01

    Baseline first

    We record where coverage, sentiment and share of voice sit before we start.

  • 02

    Live tracking

    Activity is measured as it runs, so the plan can change while it still matters.

  • 03

    Full disclosure

    You get the raw data and the interpretation — including what underperformed.

Data Analysis & Return on Investment

Results and ROI are a priority in all we do. Data insights and analytics guide strategic communications, competitive positioning and growth-driven campaigns.

We measure as we implement, to determine what is working, what is not, and why. That data and research is shared with clients in full, for complete transparency.

TIDE Studio & AI

TIDE Studio uses a limited amount of AI in communications marketing, media content and data analysis. We prioritise direct human contact with editors, journalists and partners.

Where AI is used, it is supervised and edited by a TIDE Studio professional. There is no unchecked or blanket use of AI in our work.

Let’s find the right basis.
