What our clients say about us:
“ We've worked with a number of PR agencies over the years who promise the earth but deliver very little. Hot Tin Roof in comparison is a total revelation.
Quick to grasp what we do as an organisation, full of creative ideas, and clearly hungry to land coverage that really matters. The metrics from our 2023 launch campaign have been eye-popping - going way beyond our initial expectations. We're delighted to be working with such a great agency and a great bunch of people.
”
Claudia CavalluzzoExecutive Director of Converge
“ This coverage, organised entirely by Hot Tin Roof, has given us requests for units, partnerships and investment, in the US, Canada, Saudi Arabia, Australia, Korea, Croatia, Vietnam, Trinidad and Tobago, Colombia, the UK and many others.
We’ve been overwhelmed working with Hot Tin Roof by their passion for new innovative problem solving technology, and the way they’ve gone FAR above and beyond for our cause. We’re looking forward to working with them again and again and are so grateful for the care they took to tell our company’s story.

Duncan PetersCEO and founder of IF
“
The impact of the event at Westminster has been extensive with many follow-on conversations and new connections made helping to accelerate the delivery of our mission for the UK Robotics sector. This is just one of the many ways that Hot Tin Roof has added value to The National Robotarium over the past couple of years that have seen us, with their help, grow our profile and connect with people throughout the UK and beyond.

Stewart MillerCEO of the National Robotarium
“
Hot Tin Roof delivered on all fronts. This was good, old-fashioned PR done well, and we continue to receive recognition across SSE and beyond for their efforts. We are delighted to continue working with this talented team.
”
Nathan SandersManaging Director, SSE Distributed Energy
“
The media response was much greater than we could ever have imagined, with a huge range of outlets featuring our story. Having worked in academia for many decades this has been one of the best experiences I've had in terms of a press release – most have died a quiet death fairly quickly. I can only recommend Hot Tin Roof in the strongest possible terms.
