Examples of work we don't do!

I recently spoke at a networking event whilst feeling a little overwhelmed and frazzled with our current workload. As I sat and waited my turn to speak for 60 seconds I started to anxiously jot down my to do list for the day. This resulted in a slightly humorous pitch in which I detailed all of the things I hadn't done that week to give an illustration of the sort of work we are involved in. I finished the pitch by saying: "My name is Kate Elliott from Active Marketing and Design, but please for this week at least, we don't do marketing and design!" This presentation actually attracted a lot of interest in our work by default and a lot of people seemed to get a better understanding of what we do and started to trust us more.

I suppose its all part of the know - like - trust - buy idea. That is people need to first get to know you, then begin to like you and finally grow to trust you before they will buy from you.

So in a continuation of that theme here are some examples of the work we have done in the last few weeks:

Branding and Postcards for The Business Base












Design and produce spiral hats for Easton College to distribute at Royal Norfolk Show















And here are some of the things on the to do list:

PR plan for animal first aid products
Social media activity for healthy furniture store
Write text for a website of a repair company specialising in emergency vehicles
Design a poster in Polish about onions
Design packaging stickers for pest control products
