We often work with consumer magazines to help them find people to include in features they have planned. We’ve placed Australian royal memorabilia collectors, internet entrepreneurs, female long distance lorry drivers, mums to be and champagne specialists – all of whom had a positive angle on a client’s business.

But sometimes we get a request for a feature that fits better with one of our team than any of our clients – which is how I ended up sitting on the back of a silver sofa having my picture taken for Woman & Home Magazine last week.
