pr & marketing - specialising in consumer electronics & personal technology
Founded in 1990, Robert Follis Associates (RFA), specialises in PR for the consumer electronics industry. We actually know a lot about the products and technology we represent, don't have to spin the press a line and don't continually revert to the client when difficult questions are asked.
Principal Rob Follis has been in the business for far too long and can remember his first cassette deck. He is a trained electronics engineer, has worked as a professional photographer, Apple tech specialist, cocktail barman and lives and breathes gadgets, Hi-Fi and music.

RFA is based in Central London, with fast access to all important publishing houses and all UK and Global transport links.
Services range from pure PR for large clients, to full marketing support for small ones. Some clients have been with RFA for over 20 years and most contracts are long-term. Short-term PR blasts can be discussed on an ad-hoc basis.
