She has worked for the international PR agency Porter Novelli, among others, and founded her own successful agency, Famous Relations, in 2015.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She also has a passion for the startup world. As Head of Marketing at the Belgian AI scale-up Nobi (smart lamps for seniors), Liesbeth played a key role in the international growth of this AgeTech company. Under her wing, Nobi grew into a brand active in 22 countries in just three years. Liesbeth built the brand and reputation strategy from scratch, including all international PR activities. With experience on both sides of the table \u2013 as a communications expert and from the heart of a scaleup \u2013 Liesbeth knows exactly what young companies are facing. She knows the art of telling a story that convinces investors, media and customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cStartups often hold gold in their hands, but sometimes struggle to tell that story successfully. I notice that young players are often too cautious or too modest in how they present themselves. Together with the BeReady team, I am happy to use my experience to turn a compelling idea into a compelling story \u2014 a story that resonates with the media, investors, partners and customers.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1320\" height=\"880\" src=\"https:\/\/bepublicgroup.be\/media\/250515-Mediafin-184-1320x880.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2651 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bepublicgroup.be\/media\/250515-Mediafin-184-1320x880.jpg 1320w, https:\/\/bepublicgroup.be\/media\/250515-Mediafin-184-660x440.jpg 660w, https:\/\/bepublicgroup.be\/media\/250515-Mediafin-184-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/bepublicgroup.be\/media\/250515-Mediafin-184-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/bepublicgroup.be\/media\/250515-Mediafin-184.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1320px) 100vw, 1320px\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--1)\">Hannelore Schmid<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Senior PR Consultant &amp; Director BeReady<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With a background in Public Relations and over ten years of experience in the trade, Hannelore helps companies tell their story in a powerful and impactful way. After starting her career as a PR professional in the international automotive sector, she has now been working at BePublic Group for seven years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hannelore lives and breathes PR. Her passion lies in discovering compelling stories \u2013 especially in the world of startups and scaleups, where innovation and entrepreneurship often move faster than communication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She believes that strong PR is a lever: it allows objective voices to put your company on the radar and creates credibility that no marketing budget can buy. That is why she enjoys working with entrepreneurs and teams who not only want to tell their story, but also want to grow it sustainably.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cI often notice that many young companies believe that one interview is enough to \u2018get them going\u201d. However, successful PR requires a long-term strategic approach and the right mix of channels. Whenever I hear an entrepreneur enthusiastically telling his or her story, I think, \u2019You have got to do something with this\u2019. Adding the right flavour to those impactful stories and mapping out a strategic communication plan for these entrepreneurs is what energises me.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"featured_media":2576,"menu_order":21,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":true,"featured_image_focal_point":{"x":0.5,"y":0.5}},"class_list":["post-2706","service","type-service","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Start-ups &amp;
