Testimonials
“The team at Innes Associates were pivotal in developing the Golfers Scotland brand and its associated marketing and promotional materials. They understood what we were trying to achieve with the business and knew what needed to be done and when. “It was a pleasure to work again with Innes Associates when they undertook the PR for the 2010 European Golf & Leisure Show. Their extensive help and support proved to be very important to us as we planned the show. Through their work they illustrated the true value that a marketing and PR company can provide to any business or event. “I can’t thank them enough for all that they have done and would recommend their services to anyone.”
Hector Emslie, Managing Director,
In addition to promoting the event to the public, Innes Associates added value to our exhibitors by keeping them updated with all the latest show news with monthly exhibitor newsletters. They also wrote and organised some great articles for a golf supplement which gave some exhibitors more publicity than they would otherwise have received, got us ‘tweeting’, coordinated competitions and gave lots of help, advice, assistance and encouragement as we planned the first event.
Without their input we would not have achieved the positive feedback which we have from the show’s visitors and exhibitors. Innes Associates proved that PR is not just about getting column inches, but a lot, lot more.” 
"In our business, we understand how important it is to have strong, trusted relationships with organisations that not only specialise in their field but also add value to every project they work on. Innes Associates certainly falls into this category as far as Bibby Offshore are concerned. Their experience and professionalism has been central to our marketing and PR strategy over the last year and we look forward to working with Charlie and his team, going forward."

"Since first becoming involved with the John Lawrie Group in March 2007, Innes Associates has been a key component in the shaping and positioning of the Group, in both its existing and into new diversified markets.
"Along with his support team, Charlie has been instrumental in the development and co-ordination of a re-branding of the Group’s image, including a revamp of the Company’s logo and stationery, a new website, brochure and signage, all from initial concept design through to final implementation.
"Allied with a strong focus on PR and advertising, Innes Associates has helped significantly in raising and sustaining the profile of John Lawrie through a series of press releases and targeted advertising.
"Charlie’s 'no problem' attitude and commitment to meeting and often exceeding challenging customer demands and timescales is a credit to him and his team." Ray Grant, Environmental Director, John Lawrie Group
"Working with the PR team at Innes Associates has proved to be a great success. We find them very easy to work with and the results - our corporate communications and promotional literature - have all been produced to an impressively high quality and with a very quick turnaround."Lisa Simpson, Marketing Team Leader, RBG Ltd.
"Intercargo Services have been working with Charlie Innes Associates Ltd. for 4 years and since then our business has evolved significantly. We have expanded the business 40% helped by Charlie and his Associates who have delivered expertise and guidance to meet our developing needs.
"Our new company identity has been well promoted and we are very pleased with our website. Charlie has a good understanding of our business and has developed this knowledge to fit to our growing requirements and budget.
"He has handled this just as we had hoped and although the returns are often subjective, his involvement has led to a pronounced growth in profits and turnover over the last few years. All-in-all we are very satisfied with the pro-active service Charlie provides and have not hesitation in recommending him to any business." Jim Watt, Business Development Manager, Intercargo Services
"Charlie organised our very successful first newsletter, arranged national advertising (which triggered responses from just the sorts of organisation we were targeting), convinced us of the benefit of pull-up exhibition display stands (and arranged their design and production), and introduced us to one of his many PR colleagues who is now another essential part of our 'virtual' team. In short (which he is not), Charlie is 'a rare loon' who stands out from the crowd (which he does) and stays calm when others might pull their hair out (which he can't) - 'jist the verra chiel tae gie ye a haun tae Dee the Business'."Peter K Fraser, Director of MandOS, Author of "Dee the Business" from Black and White Publishing
"We have now received the complete sets of our new stationery and company brochure. I must comment on how pleased we are with our 'new look'. We have had many compliments regarding the new image and it is proving to be good for business too. Your design ideas have been brilliant from start to finish and the quality of printing is of a very high standard. I would have no hesitation in recommending you to any business contacts that may have a new image in mind."J Logan Sangster L.M.P.A. L.B.I.P.P, Deeside Photographics
"Mr. Charles (Charlie) Innes and I began our professional relationship in 1997 when I was Director of Global Marketing for ABB Vetco Gray and he was a Director for Mearns and Gill. I was in Houston and he was in Aberdeen. I have to admit I was largely sceptical that a professional relationship could ever materialize between our two companies because of the time and distance challenges. However, to my pleasant surprise and mostly to Charlie's steady progressive actions, the relationship developed into one of mutual respect and admiration.
"When I think of Charlie's qualities as a leader, I find him to be a very good listener; one that clearly has his feet on the ground; and one who can be depended upon. He has excellent managerial and marketing skills and is highly capable of demonstrating his effectiveness. He is a man of action and activity. Every challenge placed in his hands was met with enthusiasm and the knowledge of the fact that something great was about to happen. His manner and demeanour creates a sense of trust and he has the ability to see a variety of viewpoints. I knew I could count on him to provide the 'European' point of view while accepting the 'American' perspective. He had a knack at blending both to achieve the objective.
"On a personal note, I have met very few men (or women) in the world with the personal integrity Charlie possesses. His calming ability serves him well in a passion we both share, golf. He is also a very caring and warm family man and speaks highly of his family regularly. He is proud of his children and the home his wife, Pam has created for them. His inquisitive nature keeps him interested and up-to-date with those friends and family members he enjoys. His steady, supportive nature makes even distant strangers feel relaxed around him.
"If he has any faults, and I am certain he would admit to one or two, it would have to be his quiet, amiable behaviour. Charlie is a knowledgeable, dedicated professional and he could stand to toot his horn a little louder and more frequently. Better still, get his friends to do it, which I am honoured to do. I wish him only the very best in whatever opportunity he pursues.
