Stakeholder and influencer relations
Building strong, meaningful connections with the individuals and organisations with influence can be a powerful tool to support your wider communications goals – whether that’s building trust, driving engagement or amplifying your organisation’s voice.
In the agricultural, food and environmental sectors, your reputation often rests on how well you engage with the voices that matter most. From farming unions to food processors, from environmental NGOs, to political representatives, we identify, reach and influence key stakeholders in a way that aligns with your approach and objectives.
Strategic engagement that builds trust
Stakeholder and influencer relations require more than one-off communications – it’s about creating long-term, reciprocal relationships that deliver mutual value. It’s this approach that underpins the development of a strategic roadmap for engagement that’s informed by insight, planning and clear messaging.
We assess stakeholder landscapes, prioritise audiences, and shape a plan that’s both relevant and authentic. Our work ensures you’re building visibility and credibility where it counts – from national-level voices to grassroots community advocates.






Influencing the influencers
In today’s interconnected world, influence comes in many forms – from digital-first commentators and industry thought leaders to technical experts and policy shapers. We take a broad view of influence, combining traditional stakeholder mapping with digital listening and influencer profiling.
We identify individuals and organisations with the credibility and reach to make an impact. Then, we work to cultivate genuine partnerships – whether that’s through collaborative content, roundtable discussions, webinars, advocacy programmes or one-to-one engagement.
Multi-channel communication that resonates
Stakeholder engagement is most powerful when supported by clear, consistent and channel-appropriate communication. We ensure that your messages are adapted for every touchpoint – whether it’s briefing documents, speeches, targeted emails, or social content.
Our team produces materials designed to resonate. That could be with a busy professional in-mind or reaching out to respected farmer voices; through to veterinary or agronomy inflencers. Getting to the heart of what matters to them and encouraging action is key. We support spokespeople, brief internal teams and equip you with the tools to engage confidently and credibly.
Managing reputations and building influence
Trust is hard-earned and easily lost. Our proactive approach helps protect and enhance your brand’s reputation, even in complex or contentious areas. We understand the dynamics of the sectors we serve, and how to communicate on topics that require sensitivity, authority and diplomacy.
From supporting crisis communications and consultations, to launching stakeholder education campaigns, we ensure your organisation is seen as a credible, trusted voice – one that engages constructively and leads confidently.
Why stakeholder and influencer relations matter
In sectors shaped by regulation, public perception and specialist communities, your stakeholder and influencer relationships can be pivotal. Whether you're seeking to shift the narrative, influence change or simply be heard, our expertise can help you build alliances that amplify your message and drive impact.
