We love working with Victoria Lord. She’s professional and she doesn’t waste time with pitches that do not suit the show. When booking segments with Victoria, I can rely on her to be meticulous about detail, and I trust that when says something is going to be done, it will be.

For over two decades Victoria Lord has pestered me, badgered me and politely coaxed me to write about her events and artists. I have always done so willingly because she’s among the best in the public relations field, and her clients are impressive. She’s not only a friend, she’s a colleague insuring that I always get a good story.

In more than forty years of dealing with public relations people in the performing arts, I have encountered few who could match the professionalism and dedication of Victoria Lord. Especially in the non-profit arena, PR representatives often come asking for help and expecting you to give it. She comes with story ideas that make you want to give it, and then applies herself diligently to help actualize them. I have worked with her on a number of projects in Canada and abroad and in each case their successful outcome was due in significant measure to her efforts. In addition to a high level of efficiency, she brings both an engaging personality and a positive attitude to her profession.

I’ve had a working relationship with Victoria for many years and I like that she ‘gets’ me – she’s familiar with my diverse musical tastes, my politics, and the pride I take in tackling a story from a unique angle. Sure, she understands the importance of a writer’s deadlines and getting music and art to me on time, but she also knows how to propose covering a story that gets my attention right away.

VLPR demonstrated a clear understanding of what we needed and then proceeded, surprised and communicated the newsworthy press materials that achieved our goals. The result was spot on and I would not hesitate to partner again.

Victoria Lord has done an incredible job at expanding the awareness of our signature programs in multiple media outlets, helping build the brand of the Flato Markham Theatre, which has translated into very positive impact on our general business. The City of Markham has probably the most visible Theatre operation in the Toronto Golden Horseshoe; Victoria’s strategy and hard work ought to be recognized for our successes.
