Jaymac Graphics: copywriting, editing, graphic design and printing

Internal comms

You know that effective communication with your staff is important. You know that good internal communications unites people, encourages them to care about the work and each other, reduces misinformation, and allows you to circulate the messages you want adopted.

As Dr Michelle Mahdon, a researcher for The Work Foundation, says: "Get it right and the result is increased engagement and productivity, with employees performing the role of ambassadors for the brand. Get it wrong and top teams will soon learn just how contagious apathy and cynicism can be.”

So how do you go about it? The odd mass email may be quick and easy - but has been shown to be the least effective communication channel. Instead, mostly 'old media' techniques such as team briefings, newsletters, magazines and face-to-face events work best.

The Jaymac Graphics team is highly experienced in internal comms. We will:

help you decide on the most effective medium for any particular message
translate your messages into accessible language
source and write your news stories, messages and features
design, lay out and arrange printing and distribution of regular staff publications, one-off newsletters and information packs
write for and assist in the development of your intranet
take on the organisation of staff events and special briefings.

"Communicating effectively inside organisations isn't something to be done for the sake of it, but is a central performance issue." Dr Michelle Mahdon
