The founder

PR written by someone who has stood at the machine

Rhys Williams is a time-served toolmaker and machinist. He spent years on the shop floor at machine shops across South Wales before moving into the trade press as an editor on MWP, the magazine that served the machine tool trade for over 125 years. Today he is the editor of MTD Magazine, a leading title covering CNC machine tools and advanced manufacturing.

So when we write about tool life, cycle times, thermal stability or 5-axis toolpaths, we are not translating an engineer’s notes into marketing-speak and hoping nothing gets lost. We understand what we are describing.

  • A time-served toolmaker and machinist writing your technical content, not a generalist learning as they go
  • Run by the editor of a leading CNC and manufacturing title, with first-hand knowledge of what gets covered
  • Long-standing client relationships, with partnerships measured in decades, not campaigns
  • Content approved by engineers and marketing teams, right first time
Why Pulse-PR

We don't learn your industry. We're already in it.

Pulse-PR is a specialist B2B PR consultancy based in Maesteg, South Wales, writing press and technical content for manufacturing and engineering brands across the UK, Europe, Asia and the USA.

Most PR agencies serving manufacturing start from scratch. They read the brochure, sit through a briefing, run a few searches, and hope the technical detail survives the write-up. We don’t work that way. Pulse-PR is built for one world only: advanced manufacturing technology.


That focus matters. Your press release lands on an editor’s desk alongside dozens of others, and the ones that get covered read like they were written by someone who understands the product. That is the standard we work to.

The difference

A background you cannot buy

Twenty-five years as a time-served toolmaker and machinist. Formal engineering training. More than two decades writing and editing for the trade press. You can hire that combination in one place, and this is it.

How a specialist consultancy differs from a generalist agency taking on an engineering client.

No. We are based in Maesteg, South Wales, and most of our clients are UK and European, but we also work with brands across Asia and the USA.

Who actually writes the technical content?

People with a real engineering background. Our founder is a time-served toolmaker and machinist and the editor of MTD Magazine, so the technical detail is right before it ever reaches you.

How do I get started?

Send us a few lines about your products and what you want to achieve. We will come back with a plan and a price, and you can decide from there.

If your PR has to convince engineers before marketing signs it off

You need someone who has been both. Tell us what you make and who you are trying to reach, and we will take it from there.
