TESTIMONIAL
"I've worked with some major global companies throughout my working life and, this mentoring / expertise has helped me through some of the 'pit falls' of running my own business. When we looked for some support for the PR / Communication and Social Media for the Shibden Valley Gin Launch we new that this had to come from a professional company with the right expertise. After some research I met up with Sophie the owner of LIT Communications, I realised immediately that working with her organisation was the 'right fit' for what we were trying to achieve. The results from their hard work were 'amazing' to say the least, each element of the launch/plan was delivered professionally, on time and without any issues. Every now and then you come across a company / people in business who can help to transform your goals and wishes - LIT Communication and their team have done this and beyond. Thank you so much from Speight's Gin."
- Peter Speight, director of Speight's Gin
