“As a freelancer, Gorkana’s daily Alerts have been really helpful as a way of ‘checking in’ on industry happenings, moves and changes. It’s a great service and a really useful way to have an at-a-glance overview of what’s going on in a constantly changing business. Even on days when my inbox is crammed, I always check the Gorkana Alert and find something of interest. It’s great to hear about the new media request service, too, which I’m sure will save valuable time for journalists needing to pull together a ‘real people’ feature (and who have run out of willing friends and colleagues to ask!) Any way of putting journalists and PRs in touch in this way and helping both out is sure to be appreciated!”
Mandarin Oriental magazine, Senior Sub Editor
“The Gorkana Media Request bulletin is a great service, and allows us to source some interesting news that one wouldn’t otherwise hear about.”
Birmingham Independent, Assistant Editor
“Gorkana is an excellent service, and I am really happy that we were able to use the request system. We got a number of responses, all of which have booked competitions with us over the following weeks.”
Snowboard UK magazine, Freelance
“Being able to access hundreds of eager PR companies for advice, tip-offs and recommendations makes putting the finishing touches to features for Snowboard UK magazine far easier than it should be!”

“When www.fiveminutelifestyle.com was launched in May 2007 Gorkana acted as an essential link to many relevant PRs and their clients. Our launch was fully supported by the helpful staff at Gorkana who guided us in the areas they could assist. We have since built up successful relationships with many of the contacts made through Gorkana and have continued to use the company as our number one link with PR and journalism.”
