The Great Achiever
Lisa Mcghee came to Fan Hitter as a student on a summer work placement. She demonstrated a high level of maturity and organisational skill from the outset and the rest of the staff realised immediately that this was what had been lacking in the office. Despite her youth she managed to generate significant coverage for an event that had been thrown Fan Hitter's way at the eleventh hour and took the lead role for one of our accounts.
Lisa is also a very capable communicator and knows her blogs and Bebos from her WiFi and Wiki, which is of course increasingly important in PR. Lisa will now be at Fan Hitter on a part-time basis for the duration of her final year studying PR and Media at Queen Margaret University in Edinburgh – and thereafter we hope. This lady is going places in the world of PR so watch this space!
