Testimonials

I had the pleasure of working with Noreen on the launch of CREW.  Planning and launching a new organisation is always a challenge. Noreen’s expertise,  dedication and creativity ensured that we received maximum media visibility. Her professionalism, strategic messaging, knowledge of the industry and contacts all ensured that we received solid media coverage that has raised our market visibility significantly.

Mar an t-aon tsraith dhrámaíochta theilifíse in Éirinn, atá trí mheán na Gaeilge agus a bhfuil rian na tuaithe uirthi, tá sé tábhachtach do Ros na Rún agus do TG4 a bheith in ann caidreamh a dhéanamh go dátheangach agus soláthraíonn D’Arcy Marketing & PR sraith iomlán de sheirbhísí cumarsáide & Caidrimh Phoiblí trí Ghaeilge.

Is iad na Meáin Ghaeilge na príomhbhealaí chuig croílár ár lucht féachana agus tá naisc leathana ag D’Arcy Marketing & PR san earnáil sin.

Soláthraíonn siad clúdach den scoth freisin sna meáin náisiúnta Bhéarla a thugann luach ollmhór dár lucht féachana agus, ag an am céanna, ag próifíliú carachtair Ros na Rún agus a gcuid scéalta go réigiúnach trí na meáin dhigiteacha, chlóite agus chraolta. Ina theannta sin, tugann a gcuid nasc gnó leathan luach do bhranda Ros na Rún le haghaidh deiseanna faoi thionchar tomhaltóirí.

As Ireland’s only rural and Irish Language based TV drama series, it’s important for Ros na Rún and TG4  to be able to engage bilingually and D’Arcy Marketing & PR delivers a full suite of communications & PR services as Gaeilge. The Irish Language Media are the primary channels to our core audience and D’Arcy Marketing & PR have extensive connections there. They also deliver excellent coverage in the national, English language media which brings huge value to our audience whilst also profiling Ros na Rún characters and their stories regionally via digital, print and broadcast media. In addition, their extensive business connections also brings value to the Ros na Rún brand for consumer driven media opportunities.

Noreen opened our 3-day virtual event, WPower Irish Seminar Week in March by delivering a workshop on behalf of WestBIC, the partner in the European Interreg NPA W-Power project supporting female entrepreneurs. She demonstrated her rich and wide expertise on international networking and engagement with insights and practical tips, while delivering an extremely immersive experience through her knowledgeable, energetic, and enthusiastic approach – leaving our participants inspired and upbeat. We received extremely positive feedback and the WestBIC project team would highly recommend D’Arcy Marketing & PR services – the delivery went beyond our expectations and we would definitely consider further engagement in the future.

Ba mhór an pléisiúr é a bheith ag obair le Noreen D’Arcy ar an bhfeachtas bolscaireachta i gcóir mo pháirt aisteora sa chlár TG4 Ros na Rún a bhí agam le déanaí… Ceangal Noreen m’obair a bhí déanta agam le gairid ó thaobh an ceol de le mo ról nua mar charachtar Luke i mbealach comhlántach don phéire! Bíonn sí airdeallach maidir leis na mionsonraí taispeánann sí gairmiúlacht i gcónaí, de bharr bhain mé an taitneamh as a bheith ag obair léi.

It was a huge pleasure working with Noreen D’Arcy on the publicity campaign surrounding my recent acting role in the TG4 TV series Ros na Rún… Noreen seamlessly tied in my recent music making with my new role as Luke in a way that both activities complemented the other! Her attention to detail and professionalism throughout made working with her an absolute pleasure!

Noreen D’Arcy works closely with TG4 promoting the drama series Ros na Rún.  Noreen got extensive press coverage in national media for the series which is currently in its 25th year.  She is fantastic to work with and excellent at her job.

Noreen’s passion, experience, strategic insights and ‘can-do’ attitude have been key ingredients in helping reinvigorate the Marketing and PR capabilities in Kylemore. She ‘hit the ground running’ from day one and joined in seamlessly as part of our team. Critically, Noreen always sought to transfer her knowledge and upskill our staff.​

Through Noreen, we grew our national network of media contacts and industry leaders. Furthermore, Noreen ‘opened the door’ for us to gain prominent exposure with RTE, national and regional newspapers and magazines and industry trendsetters. As a result of our partnership with Noreen, we grew our domestic business by 25% over a 6 month period. ​

We are delighted to recommend Noreen as a trusted partner for business and we wish her well in her future ventures.

Pre-opening Marketing & PR Mentoring and Campaign development​

Noreen has brought a great energy to our new Wildlands Project which was originally due to open in May 2020 and due to the Pandemic opened in August 2020. Noreen brought an excellent focus to our branding, marketing and PR strategies. Her indepth knowledge and extensive contacts in the tourism industry and business in general is first class and she made excellent connections for Wildlands within Fáilte Ireland, Galway County Council and other organisations while also building our media profile nationally and regionally.  Despite the unforeseen pandemic we intend to  continue our engagement with Noreen and D’Arcy Marketing & PR

Ag feighmiú mar ghníomhaireacht dhátheangach atá lonnaithe i nGaillimh, ar Shlí an Atlantaigh Fhiáin, tá tuiscint iontach Noreen D’Arcy agus D’Arcy Marketing & PR ar theanga, cultúr, oidhreacht agus pearsantacht na Gaeltachta.

Tugann an tseirbhís dhátheangach tacaíocht do mhuintir na Gaeltachta agus úinéirí gnó, comhphobail Ghaeltachta níos fearr a chruthú, i gcomhpháirt lenár bhfoireann forbairt fiontraíochta, le cuspóir maireachtála agus gníomhaíocht. Tá an tseirbhís fíorthábhacht dúinn in Údarás na Gaeltachta.

As a bilingual agency, based in the West on the Wild Atlantic Way, Noreen D’Arcy and D’Arcy Marketing & PR know and understand the language, culture, heritage and personality of the Gaeltacht regions. Delivering a bilingual service to  the people,  the business promoters and our enterprise development team who are continuously striving to create a better, rural Gaeltacht Communities is very important for us at Údarás na Gaeltachta.

I have worked with Noreen from D’Arcy Marketing for many years, she has assisted us with a number of PR campaigns including our 25th birthday celebrations and book launch and the launch of the Garden Suite Conference facilities. I found Noreen to be extremely friendly, efficient and professional..nothing was too much bother. ​

I highly recommend working with D’Arcy Marketing & PR.

We had the pleasure of working with Noreen on the full rebrand and relaunch of Energize Fitness & Leisure, at The Galmont Hotel & Spa. From start to finish, Noreen’s approach to the project was second to none, she was very accommodating with our timelines, openly enthusiastic about the product and an instant ideas person. Noreen devised a launch campaign idea for Energize which took on board everything we wanted to achieve but also incorporated the invaluable connections that she has built in the Galway business community, local sporting community, and media sphere on a local and national level. She was on site to oversee the smooth running of the relaunch itself and there is no doubt but that we would not have received half the exposure or results that we did, without Noreen as the driving force behind the rebrand. 

I have had the pleasure of knowing Noreen D’Arcy for a period of almost thirty years. Noreen is blessed with bundles of energy, a good heart and a positive attitude. She has represented Harvey’s Point in terms of marketing and PR on a number of projects and she has delivered excellent results every time.  Noreen’s experience of the tourism industry is second to none and she is hugely respected in all media sectors.

We have known and worked with Noreen D’Arcy & D’Arcy Marketing & PR  for the past 10 years now, Noreen & her team have always proven extremely reliable and execute their work and campaigns in an exemplary, professional manner.

Working with Noreen offers significant exposure both regionally and nationally, incorporating all media platforms. She also offers strategic insight through her diverse range of business, experience.

Bíonn muid i gcónaí thar a bheith sásta le caighdeán na seirbhíse, an cruinneas ó thaobh na sonraí beaga de agus an nuálaíocht, a fhaigheann muid ó D’Arcy Marketing & PR. Cabhraíonn an raon leathan teagmhálaithe atá ag Noreen gnó láidir a chruthú do Aran Island Ferries agus tá sé iontach a bheith ag obair le gníomhaireacht áitiúil atá bunaithe le fada. Tuigeann siad an obair atá ar siúl againn agus éiríonn leo i gcónaí le branda Aran Island Ferries a chur chun cinn.

We’ve always been very happy with the level of service, attention to detail and innovation we’ve received from D’Arcy Marketing & PR’s campaigns. Noreen’s extensive contacts have generated strong business for Aran Island Ferries and it’s wonderful to work with such a long established Galway Agency who understands our business and delivers well for the Aran Island Ferries brand.

D’oibrigh mé le Noreen D’Arcy agus D’Arcy Marketing & PR le tamall anuas i réimsí difrúla poist, mar thuairisceoir nuachta, óstach agus mar mhodhnóir ócáide. Taithí iontach dearfach atá ann i gcónaí, bíonn Noreen an-éifeachtach ina post, tugann sí neart eolais maidir leis na rólanna áirithe agus tugann sí aird ar na mionshonraí, rud atá ceangailte le clúdach suntasach sna meáin. Mar aon le sin, tá sé iontach a bheith ag oibrigh le comh-Gaeilgóir as Gaillimh a thugann saghas craic don ócáid.

Over the years I’ve worked with Noreen D’Arcy and D’Arcy Marketing & PR both from a news reporter perspective and as MC and Moderator for Events. It’s always been a positive experience, efficient, well briefed, attention to detail is very strong combined with  good press coverage. It’s also a huge bonus to work with a fellow Gaeilgóir and Galway Girl who also brings a fun element to the event.

We required an experienced PR consultant to support our in house communications office to deliver PR training and an extensive regional PR campaign for the EU funded Fisheries Local Action Group (FLAG) programme in summer 2017. The campaign consisted of 7 launch events in coastal fishing communities from Donegal to Dublin in five weeks. Noreen Darcy’s experience of media in each region particularly Irish language media was a distinct advantage and resulted in significant media coverage for the project. It was a demanding campaign with tight timeframes and a number of stakeholders involved. Despite this, Noreen got to grips with our brief very quickly, working well with all involved from BIM’s teams to Department officials to local politicians and FLAG community Boards. Noreen and her team gave 100% to the project from start to finish and I would recommend the agency for their experience in communications and training in particular​.
