Next stop, Chip Shop…

Posted by Mark Holland on Monday 23 June 2008 in Work

 

If I had £333,333.34 for every nomination Access received at this year’s Chip Shop, I’d be a millionaire!

That’s right, we’re up for three awards.

Further to this statement on How Do

“Last week the Bishop of Manchester, the Rt Revd Nigel McCulloch, also asked MOSI and Body Worlds 4 to donate money to an ad campaign countering any adverse effect the show might have on people who otherwise may have been tempted to become organ donors”

we decided to write our own ads promoting organ donation. Two executions of the resulting campaign are in the running for ‘Best Charity Ad’.

Staying with the Body Worlds theme, our third nomination is for an ambient idea we just weren’t allowed to run.

The award ceremony takes place on August 21st in Edinburgh.

Fingers crossed.

Innovations in tourism marketing

Posted by Mark Hope on Monday 9 June 2008 in General posts

I spotted this ‘grass roots’ marketing effort whilst walking around Chester, the morning after a very enjoyable Visit Chester and Cheshire tourism awards. It made me smile but did little to entice me in. Nothing to do with the charm of the pub but everything to do with my still thumping head.
