Well, we’ve all been working hard for the past few weeks, trying to get our shiny new brand ready. Our friends over at Hello (www.01134.co.uk) came up with a lovely new look for us and we’re loving it!! We wanted something that really represented who we are and what we’re about – and that would be flexible enough to grow with the business – and they delivered it for us in spades. We love the different colours and we’ve all adopted a colour and an icon – can you guess who belongs to which icon?? Perhaps we’ll run a competition…
I’m so lucky with the people who work with me in Portfolio Directors, they are as passionate about the company and our clients as I am – and as an added bonus we all love cooking! We always try and make our clients feel completely at home when they come to the offices, so we came up with the idea of serving them with tea in proper cups. We all got quite enthusiastic about it and before many days were out, we had cake stands, china tea cups and an oak trolley that we used as a printer stand was put back to it’s original use as a tea trolley. There’s a story to be told here as my husband’s lovely Granny bequeathed this trolley to us in her will – she used to wheel it in with home-baked goodies on it and china tea-cups – how lovely that we’ve resurrected a tradition.
So, to bring my ramblings into relevance – we came up with a great, and fitting, way of launching our new brand – a proper afternoon tea party!! The girls baked themselves into a frenzy and we invited a few clients and friends over to see the new brand. Heather from Hiho Silver (www.hihosilver.co.uk) baked us some lovely cup cakes with our new icons on them and Amanda, our Finance Assistant (I can’t cook!!) suddenly developed the ability to bake divine butterfly cakes.
A big thank you to everyone who joined us – we had a lovely afternoon and did the new brand proud!!
