Date:
07/02/2013

So, we got the call from the guys are Barbarella to design a bespoke event invite for a unique ‘Wonka Style’ Brunch event at Barbarella London. We love a challenge like this.

The invite itself was designed as a ‘Golden Ticket’ and invited selected guests to a scrumdiddlyumptious afternoon of ‘Wonka’ style entertainment including musical hosts DJ Charles Brafman, co-owner of DWTDJ and recently back from a months long residency at PRIVA Barbados! Then, fresh out of Brooklyn, guests will be entertained by DJ Trauma flying over to bring some bad ass New York City beats to the party!  (more…)

Engagement and insight – the next 10 years
Date:
15/08/2012

It is generally accepted that in order to sustain innovative developments it is vital to research the market; this area itself is not often associated with innovation.

One organisation determined to prove otherwise is market research company Explain which has been at the forefront of market research innovation for 20 years and working with digital partner Better has recently launched a completely new way of engaging and researching different market sectors with customers.

Looking to invest in new approaches to market research using online platforms and Smartphone apps, Explain has joined the Innovation Programme.

The product, marked as Better Communities, capitalists on the growing use of social media and harnesses digital technology to provide a platform by which organisations can engage with their customers. (more…)

Middlesbrough College and the Digital Youth Academy launch World’s first Social Media Apprenticeship
Date:
06/07/2012

Enterprise, entrepreneurship, skills development, digital, social media and Teesside, all things that are very close to our hearts. So, we were honoured to be there, recently, when Teesside grabbed another World first as the ‘Social Media Apprenticeship’ was launched through a partnership between Middlesbrough College and the Digital Youth Academy

The apprenticeship is designed to support young people in harnessing their online knowledge – and understanding of social media tools – in order to help them find work within businesses struggling to fully understand the opportunities created through constantly evolving digital platforms.

Social media and digital marketing is now a critical part of business and brand communication. That’s why we’ve invested heavily in supporting our clients and our business networks by delivering workshops focused around not only understanding the tools but, more importantly, the conversation that happens across them. So, for us, it’s exciting to see the introduction of some formal development and accreditation around such a new(ish) and unaccredited area of marketing communication. (more…)

Twitter, the power of branding.
Date:
07/06/2012

We’re often asked to define the value of branding. What is its effect? What is its power?

Well, we cannot think of a better analogy than Twitter who, this week, has unveiled its new bird logo. Interestingly, less than six years after its launch, the brand has made the decision to drop its text-based logo, bubbled typefaces and lower-case ‘t’ stating that the bird will become the universally recognisable symbol of the brand.

Don’t skimp on your branding.

In difficult times many firms see branding and marketing as an easy cut when it comes to boosting your bottom line.  For, when budgets are tight, expenditure – even on the most basic things – is dramatically reduced. But one of Teesside’s rising service sector companies is urging firms not to underestimate the value of a brand. Marie Turbill reports.

“In today’s highly competitive market, investing in brand has never been more important,” says Kate Burton, Brand Director of Stokesley-based brand agency Better. “By building a compelling and robust foundation for a brand, consumers better understand what a company stands for. They seek it out, they identify with it and are prepared to pay a premium for it.” (more…)
