Alicia, I loved loved loved your workshop yesterday. Great practical advice and you had so many great examples and tips! I could have listened to you all day. The cost of my annual membership at WBA was well and truly covered with that talk alone.
I was feeling overwhelmed and didn’t know where to start with organising the content for my website. Alicia, from Powerhouse Publicity, expertly guided me through the process as she created all of the copywriting.
Within one phone call, she was able to understand my business and make helpful suggestions on how best to proceed. Alicia was extremely patient and professional from start to finish. Her expertise comes from her extensive background as a successful writer and journalist. I felt confident with Alicia leading the way and I love the end result!

Alicia facilitated a workshop for our local businesses ‘Your Local Lucrative Media Market and How To Tap It.’
What a delight, the session was engaging, Alicia was down to earth, honest, humorous and passionate. Our businesses are lucky to have heard from such an experienced professional. Thank you Alicia!
Alicia explained various easy ways of gaining publicity for small businesses. I was unaware of most of these techniques, but I am already exploring some of them to publicise my business. She also gave helpful tips about effective public speaking which gave me tremendous amount of confidence to do my first ever presentation.
(Disclosure: I’m proud to share that Shruti Diwan designed this website. We attended the same business course.)

I attended a workshop titled ‘Tapping in to your local media’, facilitated by Alicia Young. I found Alicia to be vibrant, engaging and a delightful presenter. Her authentic experience as a journalist enables her to pass on great useful tips and information which is immediately applicable. On arriving home from this workshop, I literally wrote a press release using Alicia’s example and sent it off straight away!
By far the best media workshop I have attended. I would be really interested in attending any other workshops Alicia presents.
Alicia has the unique ability to be thorough, comprehensive, and yet not overwhelming. Her speaking sessions unite her wealth of knowledge with her graceful presence and kind personality. I walked in without understanding the difference between ‘advertising’ and ‘publicity’, and walked out with an in-depth plan for incorporating journalism methods into my business marketing.
In 20 minutes I gained 20 tips that will assist me in my public relations campaign – positive, energetic and humorous delivery from somebody with confidence.
I will view everything differently as a result of Alicia’s journalism knowledge.
Alicia had a very fresh approach in her delivery today, she offers relevant and insightful information in a way that is punctual and concise but also clear and engaging to the listener..thank you, Alicia, I look forward to hearing more of your work. I left a grateful and informed.
