As the world is getting back to some sort of ‘normal’ we are getting used to all sorts of changes. For Shooting Star, that includes welcoming our Senior Marketing Manager Emma back from maternity leave. Read about her experience below.

Our Account Manager Zoe discusses Facebook’s new Manage Activity function and its implications for personal branding.

As the world slowly and cautiously opens up again, people are beginning to look to the future and consider what they want post-lockdown life to look like.

Shooting Star was set up by me and my business partner Jez Ashberry in 2006 after we identified a gap in the market for a specialist PR agency in Lincolnshire.
