Hurst Media Reviews 

Rob from Hurst media has been such a pleasure to work with, He deals with so much ease and professionalism. We have worked for a couple of assignments now and the trust and confidence has only been going up. Hats off to your dedication.

We did two beautiful campaigns with Hurst Media. These were our first PR steps in the UK, how cool is that. Everything went very smoothly and was managed very well. Although the financial department was quite pushy, I understand that everything need to be paid in time, but arranging everything for the payment may take more than 1 day. Looking forward to the next campaigns.

I worked with Hurst Media on a last minute campaign leading up to Christmas 2020.

I cannot fault their professionalism and willingness to help us deliver on our campaign goals.

Although their accounts department were a tad assertive in chasing invoice payments, their terms and conditions clearly stated what was expected up front as part of the deal and therefore I had no problem with this, but it did catch me off guard a bit.

The team delivered on all elements and we will no doubt use them again in the future.

I would like to thank Emily Saunderson for giving me and my company the opportunity to step into UK market with our product. Working with her was always so easy and straightforward. She knows what I needed without too many explanations and going back and forth. Friendly, assisting and professional! What Emily does for me personnaly - she makes my day! Thank you Emily and thank you Hurst Media for the opportunuty! Hopefully we do another projects soon!

Professional, friendly, and helpful team who are quick to respond to queries and have been great to deal with on numerous campaigns. Thank you!

A 'bright light' in a sometimes dark world!

Selling advertising can't be easy, and we have all experienced some dubious tactics and misleading promises. I was "cold called" by Hannah Morgan at Hurst Media and am so glad I took the time to listen and respond.

This company dealt with me honestly and openly right from the beginning. They set realistic expectations from the start (which were considerably exceeded) and never tried to pressure me or ask me to make decisions without having time to consider them carefully.

They have been a delight to work with and have delivered excellent results.

Clear communication all the way through and a friendly pleasant team.

Best of all, the results of the advertising we placed through them were superb and well ahead of anything we could have hoped for. Our ROI is off the scale - but even if it hadn't been, it would still have been a good and worthwhile experience.

In Nov 2020 we were directly approached by Hurst Media regards advertising in The Daily Mail and Sun Online Christmas Checklist Products.

Whilst the campaign hit the discussed article views etc, regrettably the actual sales results and ROI fell well short on our expectations.

David Hurst, fully appreciates and understands the circumstances and we are currently working on ways in which he can support our business.

I will update to a full and complete review later in the year..

Thanks
Steve

Professional and friendly service, would highly recommend Hurst Media.

Great to work with Joseph McLaven and Jon Stone at Hurst Media - also Sarah Somerton-Jones and Liana Schultz. Friendly, efficient, open to helping achieve our objectives. Really enjoyed working with the whole team.

I would like to personally thank you Jon Stone on your team for his professionalism - I tend to avoid these types of conversations with ‘media partners’ because they are usually a hard sell from someone who doesn’t actually give two hoots (after 20 years of working within the media this comes from experience), but Jon clearly loves what he does and believes in it as well - thank you for how you have dealt with this / me today. I am extremely impressed and excited to be working with you in the future.

We had a great experience from start to finish with our contact Jon. Found us a superb space at a great price leading up to Peak.

I've used Hurst Media a number of times for various ads, and if you want to get an ad out there in one of the big papers they deliver!
In terms of of our sales it really depends and we've found there's had to be trial and error, ensuring we're targeting the right readers in the right papers, with the right content and the right image. Sometimes we've seen our ad make profits, sometimes it's break even, and sometimes it's come at a small cost, but every time it's been marketed and getting in front of customer eyes so we see that as a win. That's why I think success really depends more on the product, copy and targeting than on Hurst Media, who have always been transparent about how and where the ad would be displayed in the paper.
Overall I would strongly recommend if getting an ad in a paper is what you want to do, and have had great personal service from them (James in particular).

Terrible experience. They cold called me to advertise in the Times newspaper, completely exaggerating the results we would get. We took the gamble and purchased the advertising slot. The next day we got another call saying they have a massive discount on another advertising slot - so we thought this was a great deal and purchased that too. We are an internet based company, and we received ZERO results from these ads. No additional users/ traffic or no additional conversions. The salesman was rude and I would never use their service again. AVOID. Spend your money on google ads!

They contacted me out of the blue. Overpriced service but everyone for their own, it may be suitable for some.
I asked where they got my details from. They ignored it.
Then they just subscribed me to their mailing list without me ever asking for it and after I declined their offer for advertising.

Recently started working with Hurst Media and my experience has been nothing but stellar. We lik forward to a long and prosperous relationship!

We've been working with Hannah, James and the team at Hurst for some time now and they have always provided a top notch service. They offer very competitive rates and a flexible and fast service to suit your requirements. I would heartily recommend!

Always great at suggesting new solutions. Jon was especially helpful with a competition solution which worked really well for us, and we have booked in some more in the coming months.

Great experience from all our dealing with Hurst Media. Always good honest advice on unique and new to market media ideas in both print and digital arenas. Highly recommend to any business looking for lead generating media!

We have used Hurst media on 3 occasions over the last 3 months, and everything has been great, from appropriate proposals being sent to us for consideration right through to really helpful team on creation and approval of final copy. Really good company to work with, especially the 2 Chris's and Sarah!

A great professional team to work with. Always super helpful and accommodating to my needs and the needs of the business. Proactive in looking for ways to promote my brand, cant fault them at all.
