Philippa Lowe is Chief Ideas Officer (CIO) of the Just Go Write Group of Businesses: Public Relations Agency Word Of Mouth PR (formerly Just Go Write) and Publicity Mentoring Business ‘Publicity Express’.
Holding a Masters in Communication and over fifteen years radio, TV, and print media experience in Europe, Australia, New Zealand and Singapore, she has an unerring sense of news.
After working in journalism for a decade, Phil opened her Sydney PR agency in 1999. Offering clients her insider secrets to working with the media and teaching them how to make their businesses worthy of news coverage, she built a high six figure agency in six quick months. Her success is testament to her passion for PR and publicity’s power to grow a business.
Phil’s journey into publicity and PR mentoring began naturally, working with small business groups on publicity training and teaching journalism to undergraduates keen to get their break in a newsroom. Working with her full service agency clients – including Fuji Xerox and Adobe – to achieve great publicity successes, she wanted to offer similar resources to small business operators.
Her publicity, PR and success training programs and products are designed to empower solo-entrepreneurs and SMEs to publicise themselves, boost business profile and dramatically increase their incomes.
Phil's expertise as a Publicity & PR Mentor is on display at Flying Solo, an online resource brimming with small business advice. Read Phil's articles here.
Phil grew up in the UK, and travelled to Australia in her twenties on a business scholarship to study her MA. There she met her husband, Tony, who persuaded her that East Coast Australian beaches had more colour and sun than Birmingham, England.
When she isn’t hanging out with her husband and two children, Phil likes to swim, scuba dive, and dance. A qualified yoga teacher, she credits a mind, body & spirit balance for her energy and success. Her favourite saying is by the Dalai Lama: "I have so much to do today I must meditate for twice as long."
