About Anna McDonald PR


Glasgow-based freelance communications and PR consultant for start-ups, SMEs and charities

Based in Glasgow, I deliver impactful communications for start-ups, SMEs and charities across the UK.

Working with with me means you can expect to build a close, genuine and constructive working relationship. A desire to be helpful, focusing on the solutions rather than the problems, is engrained in everything I do for my clients. And, from working with major brands in the UK, Canada and internationally, I have built up nearly a decade of expertise. If I say I can do it for you, it is because I have successfully done it before.

As your communications consultant, I can improve brand awareness, refine communications strategy, build media profile, navigate reputation issues and uplift your brand. Key sector experience includes financial services, professional services, tech (incl. SaaS), retail and property (commercial and residential).

Passion for what I do - and who I do it for - keeps me laser focused on impact. I want to make top-notch communications and PR a worthwhile and accessible investment for SMEs and charities.
