<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Triumphs and disasters - part three of a trilogy 25 years in the making</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Six months after setting up an office in my back bedroom and becoming the biggest PR consultancy in the village of Groby, work was beginning to pile up.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It was obvious I needed help and a more formal business location. The back bedroom was barely big enough for one person never mind any more, especially visiting clients.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It was time to grow up. I became an employer, rented premises and took on a whole range of financial commitments that hadn’t been there before. Things were getting serious.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Business boomed. We did some great work and found that we were particularly good at crisis management. <i>(My first experience of crisis management had occurred several years earlier and had involved a presidential assassination and the closing down of an entire country for a while – but that’s for another time.)</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">At one stage, we were working for Christian Salvesen, Hotpoint, Redring and family retailer Wilkinson, as well as a host of others. Prospective clients were knocking on our door because they had seen the work we were doing for others in their field.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Suddenly, I wasn’t writing copy or talking to journalists any more, I was managing a team of eleven people who did that for me.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>The danger of hubris</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Some of those people were excellent and have gone on to prosper and to excel elsewhere in similar roles. Others weren’t so great, but their failing was my responsibility. It was my business. I made the recruitment decisions. I cocked up, both in terms of selecting individuals in the first place, then not monitoring them closely enough to identify and to help remedy the issues that, in hindsight, were oh so apparent.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In my self-aggrandising eyes, I was good at my job, I was a great judge of people and I expected them to get on with things, just like I did. My business. My money. What I say goes.</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Humility has come a little late in the day, but I should have let other people have a far greater say in who joined our team. Yet, despite the diversity of talent and ability within the business, we continued to do well.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We were publically praised for our work by four different senior executives at a two-day European management conference for a major blue-chip.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We saved almost one million pounds for a manufacturer who had set aside a considerable budget to deal with quality issues following a major product launch.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We came up with a marketing solution that resulted in huge things for a Midlands-based distributor.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Then it happened.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>The phone calls</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I think it was the late, great David Ogilvy who talked about agencies being one phone call away from a major problem and two phone calls away from a disaster. We had three of those phone calls in three months.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Hand on heart, none of the major client losses we had in those three months could be laid at our door – acquisitions, mergers and changes in strategic direction all had their part to play.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The one thing you can guarantee in this business is that you will eventually lose all the clients you have today. The key is to keep what you have as long as possible by delivering a consistently excellent service and by being innovative and proactive.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But you also need to invest in a business development programme that brings in new clients on a regular basis, or at least establishes cordial relationships with future prospects.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We were too busy with current clients to focus too much attention on ongoing business development – especially when we’d had prospects knocking on the door.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The result was my most traumatic work experience ever. I had to let almost everybody go. Some were very understanding. Others took it very badly.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I saw every redundancy as my personal failure. I had started this business on something of a whim – the timing and the circumstances had just fallen into place. For years, the business had gone from strength to strength. We had already seen off one recession and I was confident – too confident – in our ability to withstand anything the world could throw at us. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">How wrong was I.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Learning lessons from the past</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It took a while to recover from that period in our history, but we managed it. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Cautiously, we began to rebuild the team. I was far more rigorous in selecting employees and involved others in the entire process.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The girl whose crisis management expertise amounted to letting off a library user who should have been fined 35 pence for an overdue book didn’t get past the first interview. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Neither did the man whose expertise in dealing with awkward members of the press amounted to persuading an insistent local journalist to call back ten minutes later. Three years earlier, both would have been welcomed with open arms.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Perhaps the only positive from the whole experience was that I finally returned to writing copy and managing client accounts and a small team, rather than running a larger team rather badly.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Today, we are a team of six with a network of associates both in the UK and abroad we can call on as and when required.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Everyone has close contact with a range of clients and works directly on several accounts. Our most recent employee joined over seven years ago; our combined experience in the business totals well over 60 years.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As you’d imagine, we’re a close-knit team. We’re also living proof that size isn’t everything. Our global PR service currently reaches into South America, China and India as well as across mainland Europe and, of course, the UK.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We all have ‘soft’ business development as part of our remit and this has worked remarkably well in terms of getting us in front of potential clients and securing new business as a result.</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Could we have arrived here a better way? Yes. Would I do things differently if I had my time again? Undoubtedly, but given the lack of time travel opportunities, that’s not going to happen.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Treating the triumphs and disasters of the past quarter century just the same and looking at the business today, I am very proud of my team and very proud of our achievements.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My grateful thanks to everyone who, in whatever shape or form, has been part of the journey.</span>Philhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02860221149497959725noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3372753627223055004.post-4838091951797306672015-01-12T13:56:00.000+00:002015-01-12T17:42:27.560+00:00Clients - a musing<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><i><b>Part Two of a trilogy 25 years in the making</b></i></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
I can honestly say I’ve enjoyed working with every single client that has crossed my path over the last 25 years, but some of them stand out for various reasons.<br /><br /><b>Most Fearsome Client</b><br /><br />My very first job as a new business was copywriting a brochure for a firm of club doormen (bouncers) in Birmingham.<br /><br />Both directors were so big, they had to stoop as they came through the door. They were very affable guys, dressed smartly, were willing to listen and had a great sense of humour. However, when they frowned slightly at something they weren’t sure about, you had the feeling your life was about to end – quickly and with some degree of pain.<br /><br />I don’t think I have ever felt so nervous handing over copy for approval. And I can’t believe they ever had any trouble in the establishments they ‘looked after’.<br /><br /><b>Best News Photo</b><br /><br />A packaging business had issued a news release promoting a storage box that was very strong and which could be stacked to great heights even when full. The release bombed. They came to us for help.<br /><br />“What weight can each box take?” we asked. “7.5 tonnes,” they replied. And there was the answer.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">
<img height="225" src="https://media.licdn.com/mpr/mpr/p/1/005/0ac/13a/1cba179.jpg" width="320" /></div>
<br />One week later, four jacks were removed from a 7.5 tonne vehicle, leaving it balanced on one of the new boxes, which had sections cut out of its top to accommodate the vehicle chassis. Three minutes later and with a nervous vehicle insurance rep on the phone, the photographs had been taken and the vehicle was back on the ground.</span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />The results – masses of coverage in key titles, huge interest in the product and some substantial orders.<br /><br /><b>Most Important Competition Lesson Learned</b><br /><br />The lesson? If possible, try to do a little research before deciding on a competition winner. When we tried to arrange a presentation photoshoot with the winner of a posiest pet photo competition, we were told the dog had died three years earlier.<br /><br />The winner of a best garden competition wouldn’t be photographed receiving the first prize in her garden as she was extremely agoraphobic and wouldn’t come out of her house. The work had been done by a neighbour, who lived abroad six months of the year and had just left on his extended break.<br /><br /><b>Quickest Major Result For A New Client</b><br /><br />We felt that our assimilation notes for a new client were a strong summary of the business and how it had grown over the previous 12 months. Fleshing out the story with more operational detail and some customer testimonials, we submitted the final version in the industry’s main awards scheme just four weeks after starting work. Our client walked away with the headline award.<br /><br />A great start for a working relationship that lasted eleven years – although it put the pressure on for the last ten years and eleven months of that period.<br /><br /><b>Most Fulfilling Work</b><br /><br />I have tremendous admiration for all the emergency services and for the people who work within them. When the opportunity came to help the comms team at a regional ambulance service, we jumped at the chance.<br /></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><img height="172" src="https://media.licdn.com/mpr/mpr/p/2/005/0ac/13a/317ec72.jpg" width="320" /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Here was an organisation that saved lives and went to the aid of people in trouble 24 hours a day, seven days a week, but whose ability to operate effectively depended on the funding it received from other health bodies who always had other priorities.</span><br style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;" /><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Of course, saving lives day in day out isn’t necessarily a news story when that’s what you’re expected to do, but when something goes wrong? That’s a different story. Negative press was having an impact on everyone in the organisation – even when they knew they were doing their best with the staff, equipment and systems available.<br /><br />Our role was to help boost team morale by generating good news stories and to minimise the amount of potentially adverse publicity by making sure any editor looking to publish something negative could at least make a decision based on having all the facts at their disposal.<br /><br />We did a great job. We increased the amount of positive exposure, reduced the negative and made sure that any issues were at least reported in a fair and balanced way. I’ll always be very proud of our involvement.<br /><br /><b>Biggest Disappointment</b><br /><br />In 2002, we issued two April Fools stories for a mobile phone client.<br /><br />One concerned a couple who had bought a mobile phone for their pet parrot, so they could call it from work and prevent it getting lonely during the day. The other featured a mini airbag, which could be attached to a mobile phone and which deployed around it if the accompanying sensor detected the handset had been dropped.<br /><br />Both stories attracted a lot of enquiries from the national press and regional media for additional photography, interviews and so on. We were confident that Monday 1st April 2002 would be a memorable day, and so it was – but not for the right reasons.<br /><br />That’s because on Saturday 30th March 2002, Buckingham Palace announced the death of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother. The weekday media caught up with the news on the Monday and made up for the delay by dedicating oceans of space and airtime to Her Majesty’s lifetime. As a result – and undoubtedly alongside a host of other wizard wheezes for April Fools’ Day – our parrot was caged and our airbag deflated.<br /><br /><b>Simplest, Most Effective Idea</b><br /><br />A network of mobile phone retailers was upset by the decision of supermarkets to sell mobile phones and wished to make the point that ascertaining each customer’s specific communication requirements, identifying the best solution and ensuring that the solution was delivered correctly was slightly different to flogging somebody a tin of beans.<br /><br />So, we got the mobile phone specialists to sell beans for a short while at a cheaper price than the supermarkets. The idea captured the media’s imagination and coverage was amazing. So much so, that we revisited the idea eight months later in the build up to Christmas, substituting sprouts for beans and achieving similar results (<i>as you would if you switched sprouts for beans – but that’s a blog that will probably never be written</i>).</span></div>

I can’t quite believe where the intervening time has gone.<br /><br />Although the technologies existed already and would engulf all of us soon enough, emails, web sites and mobile phones weren’t even on my radar at that time.<br /><br />Searching for forthcoming editorial features meant thumbing through a printed version of Advance every quarter. Obtaining sign-off on a news release required a copy to be printed out and faxed across to the client with a covering note requesting a signed copy to be faxed back.<br /><br />Distributing a release with a picture meant ordering copies of prints, attaching a label to the back with the relevant details and mailing with the release to a carefully selected circulation list.<br /><br />Those were the days when colour separation fees were actually used for creating colour separations.<br /><br /><b>Adopting, adapting and upsetting</b></span><span style="clear: left; float: left; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;">Mobile phones came out at just the right time. A colleague and I decided to try my first – a nifty little number attached by a cable to a huge battery with a handle – by calling a client in London from my car to say we’d be slightly late for our pre-arranged meeting, only to discover he had left for Glasgow earlier in the day.</span><span style="clear: left; float: left; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><br />That very first call saved me fifty miles or so of a wasted journey. Mind you, we had already travelled sixty miles down the M1 before we made the call and still had to make the same trip back.<br /><br />Email technology took a lot of the pain out of issuing news releases and contacting journalists. This in turn fired up the journalists’ animosity to PR people.<br /><br />Issuing a news release suddenly became much easier and a lot cheaper. Adding other media to the circulation list effectively cost nothing and could potentially boost coverage results. The problem was that the extra journalists who were targeted hadn’t been on the earlier lists for a reason – they weren’t really relevant.<br /><br />Being inundated with bumf that was of no use to them soured an entire industry’s view of the PR profession and still lingers in some areas today.<br /><br /><b>Developing smarter solutions</b><br /><br />Happily, experience and more recent technological developments have alleviated that issue for the more considerate and circumspect within the PR industry, who build relationships by being responsive, helpfully proactive and by generating interesting, original and newsworthy material, which is targeted with surgical precision.<br /><br />Web sites and social media have made it much easier to reach the end user directly, rather than risking key messages falling victim to the editor’s delete button, or the entire story being (the modern equivalent of) spiked.<br /><br />Bloggers, fan sites and social networking channels provide a whole range of new opportunities and challenges. Reams of virtual paper on LinkedIn and other sites are used to share (or sell) ideas on how to make the most of these media, or - increasingly frequently - simply duplicate or paraphrase the thoughts of others on the same subject.<br /><br />Looking at my LinkedIn home page, I empathise with the journalists of that recent bygone era who were plagued with material of little or no relevance – only this time, I feel as if I’m being given the same information time and time again.<br /><br />Fortunately, with a few clicks in Pulse, I can enjoy a respite from the influencers, channels and publishers for as long as I like. Of course, given the relentless march of development, I’ll have to re-engage at some stage in order to ensure that I don’t feel like a Luddite in this age of e-enlightenment.<br /><br />It’s an interesting and exciting time for the PR industry, but then, ‘twas ever thus.<br /><br />Despite the great channel leaps forward over the last 25 years, the ability to identify and to generate interesting material that engages the right audience and delivers the right results for clients has remained a constant.<br /><br /><i>It’s a challenge my own business has enjoyed meeting for two and a half decades, and will continue to do so for some considerable time to come.</i></span><br />

<a href="http://www.insidermedia.com/insider/midlands/121705-east-midlands-leading-way-growth?utm_source=eastmidlands_newsletter&utm_medium=top_story_article&utm_campaign=eastmidlands_news_tracker" target="_blank">http://www.insidermedia.com/insider/midlands/121705-east-midlands-leading-way-growth?utm_source=eastmidlands_newsletter&utm_medium=top_story_article&utm_campaign=eastmidlands_news_tracker </a><br />
<br />
No doubt our boss is pleased to see his home town of Warrington in the mix too.<br />
<br />
Maintaining East Midlands' momentum means marketing, but we would say that wouldn't we! <br />
<br />
Throughout the recession, we've continued to work with a number of companies who recognise the commercial value of maintaining a high profile to help secure further growth and prosperity.<br />
<br />
If you'd like to find out more about who we've worked with over the years and what they have to say about us, take a look at <a href="http://www.q-storm.co.uk/experience/">http://www.q-storm.co.uk/experience/</a>.

<span style="font-size: 11pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-size: 11pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We’re proud to have been in the PR business for almost 25 years, riding
out two recessions, which have seen budgets decimated and countless ‘boutique’
agencies disappear.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 11pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We have witnessed major changes in how we ply our trade. Electronic
communications and, more recently, social media have, thankfully, replaced the endless
stuffing of envelopes with press releases (and the sticking of captions to the
back of the photographic prints we sent out with them).<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 11pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Some things haven’t changed though - one of these being the care and
time we invest in cultivating strong relationships, both within our client
organisations and in the media. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 11pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As a result, we’re currently in discussions with three prospective new
clients via three individuals who have worked with us in previous roles.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 11pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It also means that we’re often the first port of call for journalists
looking for contributions, who know they can rely on us to give them material
they can use. Journalists like Laura Cork, former Managing Editor of, and
regular contributor to, <i>Works Management,</i>
who says:<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoBodyText">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><i>“Your prepared material is great. You look at the features bulletin,
throw your hat in the ring, sell your client to us and give us the information
we need. It’s unusual in a good way. We’re always very happy with what Quiet
Storm delivers. It’s always relevant.”</i><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 11pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">While we can now communicate in a split second, taking the time to build
strong relationships built on understanding and mutual respect remains a
fundamental pillar of our success.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<br />The backdrop to our success demonstrates one of the benefits of social media, in this case LinkedIn. Although Leicestershire based LLA is in the same building as us (upstairs) initial contact was made through an invitation to link, which lead to a dialogue online and a quick intro meeting.<br />
<br />After finding out more about LLA, we produced a PR proposal, highlighting our supply chain and logistics expertise, met again in our offices (downstairs), and after outlining a strategy for promoting LLA, we’ve ‘linked’ up. The official kick-off is today but to demonstrate what can be achieved we’ve already supplied a piece for the Leicestershire Chamber magazine, Business Issues for Leicestershire, which has just been published in the July/August issue!<br />

<br />
Just a decade after forming the band in Leicester, Tom, Serge, Ian and Chris returned to their roots and played at least three songs from each of their five albums to 50,000 fans in the city's Victoria Park, just one week before headlining at the daddy of all festivals, Glastonbury.<br />
<br />
The night was a tremendous success and a true love-in between the group and its adoring followers, marred slightly by the distinct lack of toilets for the gathered throng (<i>note to organisers: 50,000 into 100 does not go</i>).<br />
<br />
The fortnight before though, was a classic case of how the internet will fill an information vacuum, with potentially damaging consequences.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjoUDAkAkjgZMxlbUw43zMAseK9pOUEaqsB3VnCl0qRYPQpUHnXBdUML7mlUoZny8Qm1_7dzKvI3mrpYt95voSh_BNbxwjDqogPA4lE_s4h8-k4_RbYwFZRdphAaGGGw6SZ2TOebeLNZtA/s1600/2014KasabianJordanHughes220614.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjoUDAkAkjgZMxlbUw43zMAseK9pOUEaqsB3VnCl0qRYPQpUHnXBdUML7mlUoZny8Qm1_7dzKvI3mrpYt95voSh_BNbxwjDqogPA4lE_s4h8-k4_RbYwFZRdphAaGGGw6SZ2TOebeLNZtA/s1600/2014KasabianJordanHughes220614.jpg" height="213" width="320" /></a></div>
When the tickets for the gig went on sale several months ago, the only thing for certain was that Kasabian were playing Leicester. Leading up to the sell-out event, the band confirmed there would be support acts on the day, but would not say who they were.<br />
<br />
Excitement raged through the city and Kasabian's national fan base. Not only would we be paying homage to our local lads, there'd be other major stars involved as well.<br />
<br />
Still no word from the band, but the web was awash with rumours. Damon Albarn, Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds and The Maccabees were regular mentions, with the rumours apparently given credence when Tom Meighan mentioned The Maccabees in a pre-concert interview with the local newspaper on 8th June.<br />
<br />
Reaction to the official support announcement on 17th June was, it would be fair to say, mixed. Replacing the rumours with the reality of a bunch of DJs had the fans reaching for their keyboards.<br />
<br />
Comments like: "<i>What a lot of old tosh… how bad are the support acts… not a classic day out is it… I'd have preferred Sam Bailey and Showaddywaddy…</i>" far outweighed expressions of delight at the revelation.<br />
<br />
The build up to the event was punctured and took some time to recover its momentum as people reassessed their expectations and braced themselves for Beardy Man, Zane Lowe and the trumpet miming of Rudimental.<br />
<br />
The internet had launched the event and sold the tickets, then sent high expectations for the event soaring even higher before bringing them crashing down to earth.<br />
<br />
Okay, so the planet wasn't destroyed and people didn't riot on the streets as a result. There was some negative comment online, but nobody had bought tickets expecting to see Mr Gallagher so nobody got rid of their tickets as a result. The gig was still a sell-out.<br />
<br />
Those who wanted to see the DJs pressing play on their iPods and prancing around on stage got in early. The others simply drank themselves silly in London Road pubs instead, then queued to get in the park so they could queue for the loos.<br />
<br />
However, even if Kasabian hadn't firmed up on the support acts, managing expectations and filling the vacuum before the internet filled it for them might have been a good move. They got away with it this time, but it would be nice if the build up to the band's next gig on home soil wasn't as much of a roller coaster of anticipation and disappointment.<br />
<br />
Moan over lads. Now go and smash it at Glastonbury!<br />

<br />
Let's take a useful, objective white paper we drafted that could stop property owners and facilities managers making a costly mistake when selecting a building management system.<br />
<br />
In this instance, a document created to address a specific issue for several customers formed the basis of a news release that broadened awareness of the white paper's existence, heightened the perception of Honeywell as a reliable and objective authority and generated a number of requests for further information.<br />
<br />
We then wrote an article, which was effectively an abridged version of the paper, tailored it for different markets and submitted it for relevant features in targeted - but non-competing - publications.<br />
<br />
The next stage will be to turn the original white paper into a presentation, which can be used by the sales team and at future conferences and seminars.<br />

That's why working with the World Cetacean Alliance and the organisers of WhaleFest makes such a refreshing change.<br />
<br />
These people are passionate and dynamic about the causes they promote and the projects they are involved in. They support and work for each other as well as themselves. It is easy to get caught up in their enthusiasm for whales and dolphins; to get angry about the plight of cetaceans in captivity; to resolve - as they have done - to do something about the issue and to make the world a better place for all creatures, not just us.<br />
<br />
The challenge is to channel that energy into PR activities that will have an impact.<br />
<br />
It's an enjoyable, diverse and interesting project, which just goes to show that this business isn't all about the money; there can be other rewards. Plus it's nice to work with these kind of images!<br />

<br />
If that includes you, then welcome! Hopefully, you like what you've seen. Besides, we do a mean tea or coffee and, with Morrisons two minutes away, wonderful biscuits are always in plentiful supply!<br />
<br />
Pick up the phone and give us a call!<br />

<br />
As part of our work for WhaleFest, we're helping the WCA's members to raise their own profile and that of the umbrella organisation in their own countries. Here are a couple of the early results from New Zealand and South Africa...<br />
