Elyssa Fagan Communications | PR | Marketing

Arts & Culture Marketing Consultant

Let me help you grow, stand-out and reach your audiences through effective communications

Hi, I'm Elyssa

I'm a creative marketing consultant with over 14 years of experience offering communications services to the Arts and Culture sector.

I went freelance in 2019 after years of leading teams within creative agencies across the UK. During my career I have been in charge of creating effective cross-channel marketing and PR strategies for a wide variety of clients. From working with small start-ups and SMEs, right through to large organisations like LEGO, SockShop and Grosvenor Casinos as well as the artist Paul Cummins MBE, my experience is vast. My focus has shifted over the years to specialise in marketing for arts and cultural events, projects, organisations and artists.

Examples of my current and/or past clients include the Royal Docks/GLA, Kinetika, T100 Festival, Caroline Bergvall, Nutkhut and CineEvents, as well as frequently working as part of the team at arts and cultural marketing agency, The Cogency.

If you're an arts and cultural organisation looking for communication services across the full marketing spectrum, social media, copywriting, proofreading, editing or strategy, please do get in touch to see how I can help you.

Testimonials

Hear from those who have worked with me before:

"At a time when an art installation generated unprecedented global media interest Elyssa managed all marketing communications, media and public relations with ease. She has been an integral part of the Senior Management Team at Paul Cummins Ceramics since that point, five years ago. She deals with all aspects of communications for us, including crisis communications, media relations, social media management, copywriting, marketing consultancy and reputation management."

“Elyssa and I worked together on a high profile, UK-wide project over a three and a half year period. Elyssa proved herself adept at working with the team, delivering consistently high-quality results in the media, all the while managing complex relationships with a wide range of organisations. Elyssa has great communication skills, is empathetic and clear thinking, and gets the job done.”

"Elyssa supported the PR for Newmarket Racecourses for three years and I have always found her very hardworking and extremely creative in her approach. She has always been flexible with last minute requests and has a good knowledge of what the media are looking for from a story. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Elyssa."

"Elyssa worked with the National Heritage Centre for Horseracing and Sporting Art in Newmarket supporting us with social media management, public relations, advertising planning and marketing consultancy. I would highly recommend Elyssa as I always found her to be incredibly hard working, flexible, creative, easy to work with and knowledgeable."

"Elyssa worked on a number of our well known SockShop brands including Heat Holders. She worked hard and diligently on our projects and came up with some very good ideas. When working with Elyssa she always had a friendly and happy disposition with a positive willingness and can-do attitude."
