Just a quick update on sponsorship and advertising opportunities that are still available at Scunthorpe United F.C I have colour coded the items below. SUFC are currently trying to purchase Glanford Park, the home of Scunthorpe United, from the previous owner. Although proving difficult, nothing stops my mother! The club are throwing everything they have at this deal and so they need everyone’s support with the debt left behind from the previous chairman, the day to day running, maintenance and staff expenses. Below are the available sponsorship opportunities that are left for this season. I ask you as a professional colleague, friend and daughter to support my mum in this amazing adventure she has embarked on! We as a family are beyond proud of her and know that she is the best person for this difficult job.

**¨Greggs partners with AJ Bell Great Run Series for fourth year** Food-on-the-go retailer Greggs started out in Newcastle and there are 85 Greggs stores in the North East including 29 in Newcastle itself. It’s probably no surprise that Greggs regularly partners with the Great North Run. This year was the fourth year that Greggs partnered with The AJ Bell Great Run Series as the official volunteer lunch provider. The photo is of me just after completing the Great North Run last Sunday, with the Red Arrows overhead – they put on a fantastic display. The AJ Bell Great Run Series partnership plays a key role in supporting the company’s commitments to give back to local communities, as part of its pledge to build stronger and healthier communities. Greggs’ commitments are outlined in The Greggs Pledge, its annual sustainability report, which sets out its key focuses to help make the world a better place by 2025 and beyond. The Great Run Company believe that the challenge of a mass participation events provides the inspiration people need to get and stay active. They have been delivering such events for over 40 years and now cheer over 250,000 participants across finish lines annually. Through the AJ Bell Great Run Series partnership, Greggs is proud to have delivered over 18,000 lunches to the amazing volunteers working across events in the UK. In 2023 alone, Greggs will have delivered over 5,000 lunches to volunteers, each including one of our salads: a testament to the fact that 32% of our range in 2022 consisted of ‘Healthier Choice’ products.

Like the Black Cockatoo, Banter is rare! It’s rare to see them. Once you can recognise their call, you can hear them miles away. That’s how we would like Banter to be recognised - once you know our work, you can recognise it in brands. They’re rare. So are we. Everyone loves them! Plus, he's a part of our 2024 strategy - do you have your business strategy sorted?

I'm talking all about the meaning of the black cockatoo on our website. He's not just a handsome bird, he's part of our branding. Does your brand have a story to tell? #branding #brandstorytelling

In a commercial world that seems drunk on data, how can brand owners and their agencies best use it to create sober brand strategies? Many moons ago, our data director, Brandon de Kock was the editor of a golf magazine, and he was invited to the redesign of a top-rated golf course on a luxury estate. All was going well until they got to the picturesque 18th hole and its island green, literally surrounded on all sides by water... Read an entertaining story of why there’s a reason why you’re allowed to carry 14 clubs: different shots require different weapons. It’s a rather good analogy because, according to the World Bank, we live in the most unequal society in the world and it’s just not fair to expect any single data set to accurately and appropriately cover all bases. https://lnkd.in/driVzd6H #brandmapp #consumerinsights #mediastrategy

That magical #September in 2019 when I stepped out of the Tudor House 'office' for the last time ... 🖤 ... after twenty years it was time to start something for myself, something of my own as such (I was always going to at some point), something different but better - an agency that operates the way I think it should ... possibly something abit more honest... with a certain level of something in this murky digital world... ... hence Authenticity was born ... ... four years and a bit later I would say we've achieved a few things here and there ... ✓ Won #Luxury and #International clients ✓ Completed projects for local institutions (CRS Consultants Ltd & Blakemere Village 🖤) ✓ Featured in the local rag #Bucketlist ✓ Attended and came up runners-up at the University of Chester and High Sheriff awards ✓ Live streamed two unique events for the NHS ✓ Maintained a 96% customer retention rate... ✓ Had team outings to Warhammer World and Wolf Watch (x2 🖤) ✓ Designed, developed and crafted a fair few things... And that's just what I can remember... (Don't think we have done too badly, have we?) Work hard, love what you do... 🖊️ -- "When you reap that harvest boy, when you know what it took and what has been gained and what it gives back. And you see how you need to do it all again. That next crop won't plant itself ya' hear. That's when you know you're a farmer son." #Authenticity #WeAreAuthenticity #AgencyLife #DigitalAgency #WordPressAgency

To all my #charitysector contacts and #sme followers, contained in this month's magazine (which is well worth a read for other reasons!) there is an article from me on the benefits of #csr for both parties which I hope you find of interest.

The Power of Community: How a Simple Marketing Campaign Sparked Connection Professor Angelica's lecture #MKTG5519 at Humber College highlighted the positive impact marketing can have on communities. President's Choice's #EatTogether campaign. Their 2017 video, launched for Canada's 150th anniversary, went viral. It showcased the importance of breaking away from distractions and reconnecting over shared meals. President's Choice, known for food, saw this as a chance for more. #EatTogether wasn't just about groceries, it was about community. They hosted events and a Canada Day celebration. This campaign is a perfect example of how a simple idea can have a huge impact. It's got me fired up to learn more about marketing this semester and see how we can use it to bring people together, not just push products. Maybe next time you see your neighbour lost in their phone, you can suggest a potluck in the hallway – after all, the best marketing starts with a connection. https://lnkd.in/eEQT6RDy
