The Straight-Talking PR Queen
The Straight-Talking PR Queen
Hospitality-level service for non-hospitality businesses. No jargon, no fluff, just the connections, the story, and the buzz that turns curiosity into customers.

Hello

I’m Miranda Rocksmith, the Straight-Talking PR Queen and founder of Rocket Launch. For three decades I’ve helped organisations, from ambitious start-ups to national brands, tell their story and reach the right audience. I connect people, amplify stories, and create the moments that make people want to find you first.

Chartered Fellow of the CIPR. Impact 50 Award winner, 2025 and 2026.

 

WHY CHOOSE US

 Every business’s story is different, but the path to being noticed usually follows the same shape. Wherever you’re starting from, there’s a way in.

Reset
An honest, strategic session to step outside your own head and see your business the way your customers do. Together we find the language that makes what you do instantly understood and uncover the audiences and markets you might be missing entirely.

Story
The right channels for your audience, messaging that's consistent across every touchpoint, and a process of testing, learning and evolving, so your brand sounds like itself everywhere your customers meet it. If you want your own team confident on social, I can train them to manage it themselves.

Launch
The moment, amplified properly. It's not just about getting the right people in the room, although I'm brilliant at that. It's press coverage, influencer engagement, and social and owned channels, all working together, plus knowing exactly when it's worth adding paid content or ads to extend the reach.

Coverage

Clients of Rocket Launch have featured in a wide range of targeted media, from national broadcast to trade and lifestyle press. Newsjacking and strong relationships with journalists are two of my superpowers, ensuring clients are front of mind whenever an expert voice is needed to add depth to a story.

People consume content differently, so I start by researching where your audience actually is, then find the best way to reach them there. That might mean social campaigns, influencer partnerships, online communities, blogs, thought leadership, or podcasts, whatever fits your audience, not a one-size-fits-all package. Once things are live, I keep a close eye on how you’re being talked about and what’s landing, so we know what’s working.
