Our Blog

So, the first week of July proved to be hectic for all of the team here at Win Marketing with Jo trekking around London, George editing lots of graduation video footage, Nad perfecting and launching the new Shapaclean website and Ann mixing work with pleasure in Spain!
 
And with everyone so busy, it’s time for me, otherwise know as temporary team member Jen to fill you in on all the goings on this week!
 
Ann was in the sunny Costa Del Sol having a working holiday, taking a bit of time to relax but also sorting out marketing audits and strategies left, right and centre, while also making sure she was up to date with all the news in the office and keeping us all on our toes. She managed to fit a bit of time in with her friend San though. San Miguel that is...
 
Nad turned his talents to more websites this week, including Med-Innova, Sharpaclean and our very own shiny, new Win Marketing website, working hard to get the Sharpaclean site up and running, seeing it go live on Friday afternoon. Make sure you check it out to sort out all your cleaning needs.
He also gave a bit of market research a go, calling businesses on behalf of East West Link and helped out with technical issues from helping Audrey, our accounts lady with her computer, to supporting me with a binding machine with a mind of its own!
 
George was up to his elbows in NEBOSH videos, editing footage of a graduation ceremony at Warwick University, filmed the week before. He also collected data from clients for a big power point presentation, and developed a new logo for Real Russia, which was swiftly printed onto new hats for the company! He also prepared several website templates to go onto Nad to bring his designs to life!
 
Jo was London bound at the end of the week, heading to the capital to meet with the team in the offices of Real Russia, and working with Real Russia’s Brigitte to do a bit of mystery shopping.
Earlier in the week saw Jo and George put their heads together to work on the NEBOSH video, as well as her doing market research for Hegarty solicitors and taking the reigns and becoming Ann mark 2 to keep everything running smoothly with Ann by the pool in España!
 
Jen. The week saw me getting a nick name (Jaydot 2!) and helping everyone as much as possible in this very busy week, carrying out market research for both Real Russia and Hegarty, following up on a press release we sent out for Air Fuel Synthesis which has been published in both the Australian and US media and working on blogs and social media updates for companies all across the board! 

Keep an eye out on Facebook and Twitter for all the news from us here at Win Marketing and all of the companies we are working with!
 
See you next week!

Until then, here is a great photo of George modelling his latest logo development on ont of the caps for Real Russia, what do we think, can he pull it off?

Don't you hate it when you write a load of stuff down and then technology decides not to save it?

So I just wrote out a really great blog for you guys to read, and pressed 'save' and for some reason it didn't update to the blog!

It was an update of what the Win team have been upto this week. In summary:

Ann (AKA A-dot)

Busy with lots of meetings and sales calls, writing presentations and proposals. Off to have lunch today with Loughborough MP Nicky Morgan and our client, Tony Marmont from Air Fuel Synthesis. Professor Tony Marmont has spent the last 30 years dedicating his life to finding technologies which can provide us with alternatives to burning oil and coal, visit his pages on the Air Fuel Synthesis website here: about Tony Marmont

Ann, the driving force behind Win, will be having a weekend of relaxing after last weekends hectic work filled weekend, and we do not blame her!

Jo (AKA Jaydot)

I have had a really interesting week, been on a few meetings and sales calls with Ann, and have been supporting her on that.

What I really want to mention is that I completed a 3 week course about online marketing and improving your website on Wednesday. This was a Leicestershire Chamber of Commerce course, held at De Montford University, run by Jonny Green, check out the courses page on his website here Jonny Green

I learned a lot on this course, both to put into practice from a strategic point or view, and small tactical 'quick wins' both for Win and for our clients. Can't wait to get started!

Nad (AKA Snakbar)

Busy working away on several websites this week, including Sharpaclean, a cleaning company based in Leicester - all very black and pink and smart looking, Med - Innova, who deal with medical equipment for various medical sectors, Nad has been working on fancy animations for images for this site, which we are hoping to get live in the next couple of weeks.  A new site we have picked up this week is Restoration UK, who sell products online for restoring and protecting buildings. Our development guru (or 'geek' as we call him in the office) will be working on getting these sites live next week for these clients before starting on our next web projects.

George (AKA G-Dog)

What hasn't G-Dog been upto this week? e-shots, business cards, video editing, web design, George has been a man of many talents this week and has created some fab designs for clients, and for Win as well. Our resident graphics design extrodinaire and Nad have both receieved shiny new monitors this week, and they have been loving it all week!

Jen (no nickname as yet...we will get there soon though, only a matter of time...)

So Jen has joined the team as a temporary pillar of support with our pr and online media. She has been working closely with Jo on various projects, including pulling together information and contacts in various industries, including environmental, transport, travel and tourism and health and safety. Jen has also been doing some blogs and press releases for clients this week, as well as looking at website content for some clients too.

So, with that I will get on with social media for a few clients and preparing for a filming day for NEBOSH at Warwick University on Monday. Should be fun!

We will be uploading Anns Russia trip part 2 soon, and might even have a slide show of images for you, just for something a little different...

Have a great weekend all, we will be here all next week!

Jo and the team out!

So it has been a brilliantly busy and productive week for the Win Marketing team this week, Ann got back from Russia in the early hours of Wednesday morning, within hours she was back in the office, her and Jo were working on a massive tender for the UK Trade and Investement this week, they were burning the midnight oil in the office on Wednesday!

Ann is in Peterborough today doing some employee interviews for a law firm which we are doing a marketing audit and plan for.

Jo went on an internet marketing improvement course yesterday where she picked up some great tips to use to help clients with our and their digital marketing and social media.

Nadeem has been working on the development of a cleaning company's new website this week, looking very sleek so far :) (the website, not Nad!)

George has been a master of many projects this week, ranging from designing small e-shots, to website designs and video editing as well!

So all in all a varied and full week, lefts hope for more of the same next week (although maybe less midnight oil for some!)

Ps - you might have read Ann's blog post - below, about her trip in Russia, well, we will have the second installment of her trip coming soon, and maybe even a photo or two to share as well.

Have a great weekend everyone, keep checking out Facebook and Twitter!
