PR
PR Agency in the UK
Genuinely newsworthy pitches to real journalists, because that is what actually earns coverage, not thinly disguised advertising.
Quick Answer
ZAVYANS provides Public Relations & Media Relations for businesses across the UK, remotely from our offices in Islamabad and Arlington, Virginia, with calls in your business hours. The work typically covers founder & expert positioning, coverage tracking and story pitching, planned around local rules from the start, with reporting and invoicing in GBP.
Why UK businesses work with us
Scheduled calls in GMT/BST, plus written weekly reporting
Work planned around UK consumer and fake-review rules from the start
One team running marketing, automation and software, instead of separate vendors
Reporting and invoicing in GBP, with no local office overhead added to your cost
Earned coverage versus paid advertising
Advertising tells people what you say about yourself. A journalist covering your business tells people what someone else thinks is worth writing about, and that carries more weight, especially for launches and milestones. PR is slower and less predictable than ads, but the trust it builds is different in kind.
We pitch stories that are genuinely newsworthy, not thinly disguised advertising, because that is what gets covered.
What's included
Coverage tracking
Reporting on what coverage was secured and its reach.
Founder and expert positioning
Building a named spokesperson's visibility as an industry voice.
Story pitching
Direct outreach to relevant journalists with a genuine angle, not a mass blast.
Crisis and reputation support
Guidance on public response when something goes wrong.
Media list building
Identifying journalists and publications that actually cover your industry.
Press release writing
Announcements written the way journalists expect to receive them.
Working with UK businesses
We work with UK businesses remotely from Islamabad, which is four to five hours ahead of the UK, so our working day overlaps your morning and early afternoon. Calls are scheduled in UK hours, reporting and invoicing are in GBP, and there's no UK office overhead built into our fees. We don't have a UK office, and we say so plainly.
Public Relations & Media Relations rules in the UK
UK law now bans fake reviews under the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act, the ASA's rules cover claims in content, and cookie banners must meet PECR.
What's different about Public Relations & Media Relations in the UK
UK searchers use UK spelling and terms, and results favour businesses that look established and local. Reviews on Google and Trustpilot carry a lot of weight.
- Keyword research in UK English, so pages match how people actually search
- Google Business Profile plus UK directory listings such as Yell and Thomson Local
- Content that answers questions the way UK buyers ask them
What makes a story worth covering
A funding round, a genuine industry first, useful data nobody else has, or a compelling founder story tend to get covered. We are honest about whether your news is a strong pitch before spending time chasing coverage that was never likely to land.

Frequently asked questions
Do you have an office in the UK?
No. We serve UK businesses remotely from our offices in Islamabad, Pakistan and Arlington, Virginia (USA), with scheduled calls in your time zone, written weekly reporting and invoicing in GBP.
Which countries do you work in?
We work with clients across Pakistan, the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, the UAE and Saudi Arabia.
Do you write the press releases?
Yes, written the way journalists actually expect to receive them, not as marketing copy.
How long does PR take to show results?
It varies widely. Some pitches land within days, others take weeks of relationship building with the right journalist.
What rules apply to Public Relations & Media Relations in the UK?
UK law now bans fake reviews under the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act, the ASA's rules cover claims in content, and cookie banners must meet PECR. We plan the work with this in mind, and you approve anything customer-facing before it goes live.
Do you handle crisis communication too?
Yes, we can advise on public response if something goes wrong, though this is a distinct, more urgent engagement.
Can you guarantee coverage?
No reputable PR agency can guarantee coverage, since editorial decisions are made by journalists, not us. We can guarantee a genuine pitching effort and honest reporting on results.
Which cities in the UK do you work with?
Businesses anywhere in the UK, including London, Manchester, Birmingham, Leeds, Glasgow, Liverpool, Edinburgh, Bristol, Sheffield and Newcastle. Campaigns and content can be targeted to specific cities or regions.
Why choose ZAVYANS for PR?
We pitch genuinely newsworthy stories rather than thinly disguised advertising, which is what actually earns coverage from real journalists.
What do you need from me to start?
Your news or story angle, and any past coverage or media contacts you already have.
Is PR worth it for a small business?
It depends on whether you have a genuinely newsworthy story. We will tell you honestly if your news is not strong enough yet.
