“I have been trained on the Level Up course. One thing that is certain is a saying that they always used to use for New York University where I did my undergraduate training. If you give a man a fish you feed him for the day but if you teach him how to fish you feed him for life. I feel like I've learned quite a bit about how to fish for media contacts and perform from my home studio, so much so that I got myself on BBC TV national news several times as a legal expert on the Britney Spears conservatorship story and the Ghislaine Maxwell/Epstein stories, as well as Court TV and NCTV.”

"I give the Level Up programme 10/10 and 5 stars for content, relevance, accessibility, ease of use and approachableness. It's great to be on the programme and to benefit from Kerry Hopkins's specialist knowledge. Kerry Hopkins delivers in a warm engaging manner and gives real examples. I am really enjoying being on the programme and being coached by Kerry. I love the website platform, love the fact the videos are different lengths. Some of the videos I can just listen to rather than watch which means I can multi-task which is a great use of my time. I have been on national BBC TV News and BBC Radio 4 amongst other media."

Dr Naomi Murphy

Consultant Clinical and Forensic Psychologist, Octopus Psychology

“Working with Kerry and her team has been invaluable and an eye opening and exciting experience. Kerry is fantastic at her job. I valued Kerry's ability to listen, her attention to detail, and after offering me a detailed consultation - her willingness to expertly develop a meaningful and bespoke media training, coaching and advisory package for me. This helped meet my specific learning needs and improve my confidence in front of the camera and on radio.

"While working with me, Kerry was clear in her directions, honest in her constructive feedback, and showed a energising willingness to work with me. Through her patience and encouraging interpersonal style she helped me to step outside my comfort zone and into the world of media.

"Since working with Kerry Hopkins I have been on Netflix, Channel 5, BBC 10 O'Clock News, BBC News Channel, BBC London TV News, BBC London radio, BBC Radio 4 Today programme, the Metro newspaper many times, the Sun newspaper, the Guardian newspaper --- to name a few

"I also feature as the psychologist on many TV series such as "My Lover, My Killer" on Netflix, "Sex on the Couch" on BBC 3 and other shows."It is a step that I am glad that I have taken and I am enjoying the experience of seeing where our work together will go I would recommend Kerry to anyone who wanted to really develop their media presence regardless of their level of media experience. I look forward to continuing working with Kerry."

“From the very first moment I met with Kerry Hopkins I knew that her incredible knowledge & expertise, her fierce work ethic and her passion, would propel us to a new level. However, she has already exceeded even that lofty expectation! I would recommend that any individual or business who wants to improve their positive exposure should work with Kerry Hopkins. “Today in March 2019, we have only been working with Kerry Hopkins for 2 months, but we have already achieved tangible success. Our staff are buzzing and the place has literally exploded with these phenomenal results, our website has seen a big spike in views in one day by 4,000% in one day and my own personal biog page on the website increased views by 3,100%, our message has hit millions of people and we have seen a big upturn in enquiries and sales. We partnered with Kerry Hopkins company - Broadcast Ready PR - initially to gain us media exposure, but the partnership has since grown to them also taking over all of our PR – including our social media, our website, SEO, strategic partnerships, events, press and broadcast and all of our SJL Insurance Service's external communications.”

"Kerry is a consummate professional, with well-rounded experience across all the key PR mediums, she grasps the brief intuitively and is well-tuned into the client. On top of that, Kerry is a real pleasure to work with."

David Burrows

“Kerry Hopkins's company, Broadcast Ready, lives up to its name – Kerry made sure I was ready for TV interviews by coaching and teaching me to trust myself and bringing out the best of me. I was forced onto TV against my better judgment, and after a short while, I started to enjoy it and I was in demand. The sheer high volume of interview opportunities Kerry Hopkins brought me was astounding. But Kerry never let me get ahead of myself and she issued honest feedback, which kept me grounded and broadcast-ready! Thank you Kerry because if it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have the media presence that I have!”

Michelle McGrade

Former Chief Investment Officer now NED, Formerly TD Direct Investing and Virgin Money

“Kerry successfully completed her MA, a few years after graduating as a PG Dip student from City, in TV Current Affairs. To get the masters later requires real hard work and commitment as well as brains and Kerry has them all.

"Her film and dissertation was on Women in TV Comedy and she got funny, imaginative interviews, door stepping Ian Hislop, and with access to commissioning editors at high levels. Kerry is a great worker, capable of really original stuff and unexpected thinking. But she is also down-to-earth and straightforward and comes up with original ideas."

Professor Lis Howell

Former Director of Broadcasting, City University London

“I got on BBC News and Sky News a short time after signing up. Kerry Hopkins provides an excellent service for experts with something to say to a bigger audience, but without the contacts or experience to break into the world of television.”

Dr Steven Fawkes

“My client, leading businesswoman Nikki King OBE, former MD and now Honorary Chairman of Isuzu Truck UK, has only been working with Kerry Hopkins since January and she has already been lined up for BBC News and Sky News to discuss the budget. I would not have got Nikki on these programmes without the Broadcast Academy and I strongly recommend their services to other PR agencies and major corporations.”

“I appreciate the role that Kerry Hopkins has performed that has resulted in TV news and online video interviews. In my case it has introduced me to a new generation of journalists who could not be expected to know me from my commentaries on earlier crises in the Middle East.”

Kerry is in the top of the UK's most connected communications' professionals in the broadcast PR industry. It is a pleasure working with her.”

Veronika Monell

“Kerry has helped me improve the profile of our company by securing me for the Papers Review on Sky News as well as introducing me to some extremely useful networking organisations which has resulted in on-going contracts. She is extremely honest. If she feels something isn’t right she will say so. She doesn’t take your money if she doesn’t think she can help, so the advice and backup you get is great value and very successful.”

Diana Mather

Director, The English Manner

“Through Kerry Hopkins, I’ve had more broadcast media opportunities than I have had in the past year – all in within one month.

"As our primary interface for the Cisco European PR team, Kerry brought both creativity and a considered approach to the account. She brings an understanding of the consumer side of technology to bear which was particularly helpful in making complex subjects and concepts understandable to a media audience. She is a consummate professional and has great media relationships.”

Marc Musgrove

Director of Corporate Communications, Cisco

"I first met Kerry at during preparations of O2's sponsorship of North Pole Solo 2002. My involvement was as expedition photographer and expedition spokesperson hence my close involvement with JCPR and Kerry.

"The media coverage of the expedition went global and the PR return based on advertising placement of O2's sponsorship was some 40 times more than the original investment! Kerry's help and guidance during this fast-paced event was attentive, concise and spot on. We continue to keep in touch and liaise on projects.”
