  • “Joanna Jeffreys is hands down the best PR partner I’ve ever worked with. What sets Joanna apart is her rare ability to combine creative, out-of-the-box thinking with the grit and resourcefulness every entrepreneur needs - especially when you don’t have the big corporate budgets. She’s sharp, strategic, and always a joy to speak with. She genuinely brightens my day. Joanna’s network is second to none across fashion, beauty, lifestyle, and hospitality. If she doesn’t know someone, she’ll find a way to connect. She’s the perfect blend of “old school” expertise and relationship-building, with a “new school” mindset. She’s a trailblazer who stays ahead of media, tech, and influencer trends. Equally important, when Joanna takes on a brand like Shleep she immerses herself fully - understanding the DNA of the business as if it were her own.”
