Too many to mention! 1 Sony Nintendo Microsoft Sky Odeon O2 Robert Price UK Chief Executive Future 6 2009-04-22T11:14:43Z !/assets/196/logo.jpg! Given its position in the list, it goes without saying that special-interest media group Future PLC have made real progress in the last year. Back in 2006, the Board scaled back the ambitious policy of rapid expansion and appointed a new Chief Executive, Stevie Spring, who set out the Group’s new strategy. In 2007, the Group vigorously implemented its new strategy – they sold or closed 51 weaker titles, and disposed of Future Italy and Future France. The Group is now concentrating on its key strategy of providing English-language content in key sectors, cross-platform. !/assets/196/01.jpg! 2008 has seen the Group move forward. Firstly, it has been working hard to engage even more strongly with what it has termed ‘prosumers’ – professional consumers who are passionate about their interests. Future targets these prosumers with a multi-platform approach to reach them in print, online and face-to-face. It has also been working to strengthen its commercial partnerships. Future now produces the official magazines for all three major videogames console manufacturers – Sony, Nintendo and Microsoft – in both the UK and the US. The third element of the company’s strategy has seen it focus on driving profitability through online activity. UK Chief Executive Robert Price says, “This is a real opportunity for the business, and one that enables us to build stronger links with our prosumer audience and our commercial partners. Online advertising was up 35% in 2008 and continues to grow in 2009.” When it comes to Future’s portfolio, the company sells over four million magazines each month and currently attracts more than 25 million unique visitors to its websites. Future also produces more than 1,500 items of multi-media content every month and hosts 25 annual live events, attracting hundreds of thousands of enthusiasts. !/assets/196/02.jpg! The company focuses on continual, active management of its portfolio of more than 80 magazines. In the last 12 months, it has launched three new monthly magazines – PhotoPlus, The Knitter and Triathlon Plus. It closed the loss-making US Snowboarding magazine and sold women’s title Health & Fitness. In addition, it has further continued its programme of product redesigns, relaunches and ‘specials’. The launch of Triathlon Plus, extends Future’s reach into the sports sector, building on its enviable position as market leader in cycling publications. Future’s cycling portfolio includes Cycling Plus, Procycling, What Mountain Bike, Mountain Biking UK, and the world’s most visited cycling website network, which includes www.bikeradar.com and www.cyclingnews.com. Robert Price says, “We are a world leader in cycling publishing, on and offline, with fantastic products that reach and engage millions of cycling enthusiasts. It’s a natural step to look at extending the editorial strengths we have in cycling into areas where we see a market opportunity, such as triathlon.” Future’s digital strategy has continued to progress. In June 2008, it launched Qore, a new “digital edition” for Sony US across the PlayStation 3 Network in North America. Also in June, Future acquired BallHype Inc in the US (for £1.5m). This company has developed web technology for advanced aggregation of content which they plan to incorporate and expand across a number of web properties over the next two years. !/assets/196/03.jpg! The customer publishing arm of the business, FuturePlus has also had a successful year, particularly in contrast to the tough advertising environment. “We apply our online and print expertise to produce bespoke, multi-platform content for our commercial partners. Our marketing solutions offer a high return on investment and demonstrably increase brand loyalty. Our customer magazines routinely generate £4 in sales for £1 marketing budget spent and, given that, on average, consumers spend 25 minutes reading a customer magazine, this is a vital platform for key brand messages. Contract partnerships include 02, Odeon and PC World. Our SKY Movies magazine continues to be the world’s biggest film magazine.” The last year has seen Mark Wood appointed as non-executive Director. Wood was previously Chief Executive and Chairman at ITN. Roger Parry, Future’s Chairman, commented: “We are delighted to welcome Mark to the Board. He has an outstanding track record in the media that bridges both the commercial and the editorial. He has succeeded in managing diversified, high-profile media companies and has a wealth of journalistic experience: in broadcast, print and online. All of this experience will be extremely valuable to Future as we move forward with our multi-platform strategy.” The Board also announced that John Mellon plans to step down as independent non-executive Director with effect from July 2009. 2000 50 196 London jim.douglas@futurenet.co.uk Jim Douglas 01225 442244 true false Launch of The Knitter Magazine and Triathlon Plus Magazine, Future is unusual in that we are still aggressively launching despite economic downturn.

The Blue House, Clifton Down

ONS (Office of National Statistics). We've been appointed as the lead agency for the next Census (2011) on all above the line activity - TV, cinema, outdoor, press. Very high profile campaign. Pitched against AMV and Miles Calcraft. Shows location is no barrier to new business success. £10m spend. 3 Other agencies within Mission Group; Story, RLA, Big, BDW and April Six. Bruce Hutton CEO Bray Leino 1 2009-04-22T08:45:47Z !/assets/193/logo.jpg! Fee based income of £31,000,000. Over the last 30 years, Bray Leino has committed itself to growth; through both acquisition and organic development of existing clients, and despite the economic climate, the last 12 months have been no different. Last May they acquired Rhythmm, a highly respected Direct Marketing agency and merged them into their Bristol agency. Over the last 12 months they also acquired Broadskill, a training company with a great reputation for the provision of training and learning programmes to the private sector. It has merged it with its existing training business that previously had more of a public sector focus, and together they’ve become Bray Leino Broadskill, a top five training business in its own right. With these developments, Bray Leino has also made a number of additions to its management team, including Kevin Yull and Chris Badley to head up the creative output of the ‘direct’ team, Matt Rees – Direct and Channel Strategy, Steve Hall – Executive Creative Director, and Nick Carroll, who joined from McCanns. In addition, Patrick Furse joined from Sapient to lead the development of the digital offering and Ross Walker joined from TNS to head up the groups Experiential and Events division. !/assets/193/01.jpg! Reflecting on the last 12 months, MD Ian Noble says, “Headquartered out of North Devon and even here in Bristol, business has never simply come to us and so there has always been a focused group-wide new business programme. These last 12 months, we’ve certainly seen other agencies reducing the investment costs associated with new business, viewing it as a luxury in these leaner times. We, however, believe that new business is the lifeblood of any agency and a vitally important motivator, as well as a commercial imperative.” As an agency that has a solid track record within the public sector, the last year has seen Bray Leino re-focus its efforts on government funded work. Noble also points out that, as a fully integrated agency, his team have something of an advantage when it comes to recession hit companies looking to consolidate their marketing spend. “It’s clear that single channel solutions are a thing of the past and, therefore, the capacity to deliver across the experiential, digital and PR landscape for example is a huge benefit to a client, both in terms of cost efficiency and strategic integrity.” !/assets/193/02.jpg! Last year, the company’s long-term strategy saw wins including The Royal Mint, Virgin Media and the contract to promote the next Census. Noble says, “Differentiation is a key challenge for all of us and so, this year, we have all definitely placed a greater emphasis on capturing, distilling and communicating our proposition.” This year has also seen the company focus on digital technology, ensuring the team adopts a ‘digital’ mindset across all disciplines within the group. “Rather than being viewed as another channel in its own right, we now place it at the heart of our business, from strategic planning through to creative solution.” Bray Leino has also been busy introducing a ‘people first’ strategy – a programme which looks at every facet of a potential or existing member of the team’s life at Bray Leino. “It explores how we promote ourselves as an employer .” !/assets/193/03.jpg! The company says some of its most exciting projects have taken place over the last 12 months, including work with The Royal Mint to deliver a direct channel marketing programme to support their collectibles division. The team were tasked with developing the brand strategy and designing and launching the Olympics coins collection. Another significant win of the last 12 months was the contract to promote the 201 Census for the Office of National Statistics “This is a once in a lifetime opportunity. We’ve been appointed as their above-the-line agency to deliver an awareness campaign leading up to Census day itself in March 2011. The campaign will cover TV, cinema, direct mail, radio, outdoor and digital comms. The win was the result of a five-month tendering process lead by James Robertson and has a reputed spend of around £10m.” This year has also seen Bray Leino working as the PR and Advertising agency for OMSCO (the trade organisation supporting farmers who produce organic milk) and as PR representatives for Virgin Media. 0 40 Profile of Creative businesses on national/international scale 193 Steve Hall; Executive Creative Director - through aquisition of Rhytmm, brought team of exeperienced Direct Marketeers with him.

Twofour Studios, Estover

Are You Smarter Than A Ten Year Old? because it was it our biggest ever commission - a high profile, multimillion pound series using HD broadcast technology. 2 None Charles Wace Chief Executive Twofour 1 2009-04-15T14:19:16Z !/assets/102/logo.jpg! The last 12 months has been a tale of two halves for Plymouth-based Media company Twofour. The first six months of the year marked a continuation of their five-year strategy for aggressive growth, which has resulted in an increase of 70% year-on-year growth. CEO Charles Wace says, “We had been growing rapidly across all four companies for the last five years, then the world collapsed, so we moved to a strategy of consolidation across the group.” What makes Twofour unique as broadcasters is that it offers a truly complete 360° package. With four companies under the umbrella of Twofour – Broadcast, Communications, Digital and HMC – the team is able to offer a wide and diverse offering to their clients. “Nobody is fully protected from the current climate and broadcast commissioning has seen a general downturn,” Wace says, “but as one of the largest media companies in the UK we are extremely well placed. !/assets/102/01.jpg! Even in these challenging times there have been significant wins for the broadcast team over the last year, in particular the re-commission of the popular Sky series, Are You Smarter Than a 10 Year Old?. “Winning the re-commission to produce 85 hours of this incredibly successful show was very important for us and it has taken us firmly into entertainment programming.” Other key broadcast wins include On Thin Ice – a 5 x 60 min HD commission won off the back of the award-winning Through Hell and High Water (Ben Fogle and James Cracknell rowing the Atlantic). The new series will be shown on BBC2 later this year and, this time, covers a race to the South Pole produced using the latest tapeless technology. The team is also proud of Big Chef Takes On Little Chef, for Channel 4 in which Heston Blumenthal battled to transform the menus of Little Chef and the series Britain’s Best Drives which transferred from BBC4 to BBC2. Meanwhile, Twofour’s digital division has been blooming, producing content and technology that has seen the company win commissions for the likes of CBBC, Volkswagen and Shell. This year has also seen the division roll out of their ‘Media Freedom’ product. Described as: “our own Iplayer technology”, ‘Media Freedom’ offers broadcasters and corporate clients an opportunity to disseminate high quantities of video footage on the web. The product has been so successful that Twofour not only won a contract with EuroparlTV to develop a new webTV platform to make European politics more accessible for EU citizens in more than 20 different languages, but has also opened a new office in India to house a software team who work solely on developing the ‘Media Freedom’ technology. !/assets/102/02.jpg! Another key digital win this year was a contract with the BBC to produce myCBBC – one of the first completely safe social networking sites aimed at children aged 7-11. Other important business wins for the communications side of the company include Shell’s Retail Business Communications and Volkswagen’s Business Forum – both large scale, high tech, interactive, online communications initiatives. The communications team has also opened an office in Philadelphia. Twofour’s continued growth and development has seen the 270-strong team strengthen its staff with three new appointments over the last year. These include Rick Horne who comes on board to head up the digital post-production team, Mark Scantlebury, who joins as Head of Factual, and Bridget Sneyd, as Senior Executive Producer. !/assets/102/03.jpg! Awards last year included: RTS, Broadcast and IVCA Clarion awards for the The Estate We’re In, a Gold IVCA Award for The Growing Schools Garden Website produced for the DCFS and a Silver Award in the External Interactive Media category for myCBBC. Twofour also picked up four Media Innovation Awards, including The Overall 2009 Media Innovation Awards Trophy and the Television Award for Make My Body Younger. As for the year ahead, Wace predicts that, while the recession isn’t over, advertising revenue will begin to creep back up, “some in the region will go bust, but on the whole the industry is consolidating. We have to be ambitious and drive our business forward so that when world is brighter, we come out stronger and fitter than before.” 180 50 102 Rick Horne – Head of Post Production – Rick was a senior post producer at The London Studios and before that at Resolution Post where he worked on some of the biggest shows on UK television – including Top Gear and Strictly Come Dancing. He brings some in the best experience in the industry to the south west. Rick’s has already overseen the company’s move into tapeless workflows. Thea Cole – Executive Producer - Thea was Creative Head at Red Bee Media before joining Twofour last June. Her combination of television production and business experience is a perfect match for the media communications work Twofour does in Learning, with leading brands and with public sector organisations. Rebecca Parkinson – Head of Production - Rebecca joined Twofour last April –making the move from Shepherds Bush where she worked for Objective Productions (The Peter Serafinowicz Show, Peep Show, The Real Hustle) and her depth of experience has been invaluable to Twofour as our slate of broadcast programming has expanded.

This time the challenge is a Race to the South Pole and it is significant because it used the latest tapeless technology. Big Chef Takes On Little Chef – Twofour’s series for Channel 4 in which Michelin star chef battled to transform the menus of Little Chef was a major achievement for Twofour and the massive amount of coverage surrounding the programmes very important for building the reputation of the company. EuroparlTV – winning the contract to develop a new webTV platform to make European politics more accessible for EU citizens was a major coup for Twofour. The huge project – which went live at the end of last year made use of Twofour’s own sopshisticated webTV platform, Media Freedom, which streams both live and archived programming in more than 20 EU languages. myCBBC is one of the first completely safe social networking sites aimed at children aged 7-11. The brief was to provide children with a secure environment to explore the latest technology. In the first two weeks after the launch 96,000 children had created their own dens and the site has already started to win awards for its creativity.

A true multiplatform campaign encompassing animation, a large scale exhibition at the Science Museum, an online community and online game. 1 David Sproxton/Peter Lord Executive Chairman/Creative Director Aardman Animations 1 2009-04-17T15:25:39Z !/assets/165/logo.jpg! The world’s best-known animation house, Aardman Animations, has had a successful year which has seen it produce a raft of award-winning animations, while also branching out further into the digital market. One of the key productions of the last 12 months was the team’s creation of A Matter of Loaf and Death. Aired on BBC1 on Christmas Day, the short notched up 14.3 million viewers and was the highest-rated TV programme of 2008. With a strategy that sees Aardman striving to offer multi-platform offerings for all of their creations, A Matter of Loaf and Death led to the npower commercial campaign, Kingsmill promotion and a W&G exhibition at the Science Museum in partnership with UK Intellectual Property Office. The film’s website received over one million page views in December alone, and the accompanying Top Bun game viral was picked up by over 1,000 sites and had over three million plays in first three months. !/assets/165/01.jpg! The extension of their digital offering has also seen the company join forces with YouTube to launch two Aardman branded Channels: The Aardman Channel and Aardman’s ‘Darkside’ which offers a selection of some of the company’s more surreal comedies and shorts, including Rex the Runt, The Adventures of Jeffrey, A Town Called Panic and Angry Kid. These two new channels expand the reach of Aardman’s roster of animated properties on new digital media platforms, with programming already available on iTunes, Hulu, Joost, Atom Films and a number of online and mobile platforms in the UK and internationally. Robin Gladman, Digital Content Manager for Aardman Animations, says, “YouTube is a key online video destination and we are excited to be able to offer viewers our own branded channels.” The team cites Shaun the Sheep, the top-rated CBBC show, as one of its most significant series continuations of the last 12 months. It has won a cabinet full of awards – an international Emmy, two BAAs and a BAFTA nomination – and its online community has attracted over 35,000 registered users. The first series of Shaun the Sheep racked up television sales and licensing deals in over 150 territories, and is also a major licensing success, already securing 28 UK licensees, including Golden Bear as Master Toy partner and Egmont as publishing partner, in addition to numerous international partners. A new series of 40 x 7-minute episodes started shooting in early 2009 for CBBC. Aardman has also been expanding its commercials and branded content department, which has covered a wide range of techniques this year, including Stop Frame (npower, and the government’s ‘Change for Life’ campaign), CGI (McVities and Hershey) and 2D/flash (Robinsons). “Our work spans all media and reflects an advertising market that is continually changing and diversifying,” adds Gladman. 190 60 165 lucy.wendover@aardman.com Lucy Wendover 01179848485 true false Feature Films Chicken Run – worldwide Box office USD 225m Flushed Away - worldwide Box office USD 177m Wallace and Gromit: Curse of the Were-rabbit - worldwide Box office USD 181m; Animated Feature Film Academy Award 2006 Broadcast Television /Digital media Wallace & Gromit - 4x BAFTA winning TV Specials Wallace and Gromit: A Matter of Loaf and Death – 14.3million views on BBC One on Xmas day and the highest rated TV programme of 2008.

In June 2008 Trimedia was appointed to devise and manage a major campaign targeting the retail supply chain for the government-funded Waste & Resource Action Programme (WRAP). This involves working closely with Defra and some of the largest names in retail, both in the UK and beyond, to encourage waste reduction and resource efficiency. It also encompasses high-profile issues and significant government initiatives such as the Courtauld Commitment - a voluntary agreement to cut packaging and food waste throughout the supply chain. 3 Loretta Tobin CEO Trimedia UK 1 2009-04-20T18:38:31Z !/assets/183/logo.jpg! Fee based income approx. £2,000,000 from South West office. With Bristol representing one of the leading centres for public relations outside of London, client demands are high in the region, and rightly so, which is why the South West offices of Trimedia are so determined to hit targets and demonstrate above and beyond for all of their clients. Trimedia Senior Consultant and Chair of CIPR West of England, Tom Bowden-Green says, “In the last 12 months we’ve mainly focused on ensuring that we demonstrate value to our existing clients during the downturn. This has been hugely successful, in some cases resulting in budget increases. Our ability to offer a wide network of expertise has seen us win a number of new clients, providing access to experts in specific sectors and specialist areas of PR for a relatively low regional rate. Bowden-Green is also keen to point out that, despite a range of acquisitions and changes over the last seven years, being part of a global umbrella has some huge benefits. “Trimedia International gives us access to consultants with a broad range of skills, working in many sectors. For example, as a company we have eight centres of excellence, led by experts in fields from consumer brands to financial services. The size of the company also offers a geographical benefit, with an international network meaning that we have people on the ground in whichever country or UK region we need to work in.” !/assets/183/01.jpg! But while many in the industry might have assumed Trimedia had completed restructuring, it appears that even during the downturn, it has been busy enhancing its offering to ensure it makes the very best of the talent available to them. “We’ve altered our structure in the last year to take advantage of the intellectual and geographical attributes of our consultancy. For example, whilst Loretta Tobin, our UK Chief Executive, oversees national work across our eight centres of excellence, we have appointed Sally Rhodes as Managing Director of Nations & Regions to oversee the development of our network.” On the client front, Trimedia’s books include some of the biggest international brands and government departments, right through to local SMEs. Its range of clients is impressive, but even more so is the fact that it has been working with some clients for over a decade. Key projects include a partnership with Land Securities and Hammerson – the developers behind Cabot Circus. “During the nine years that we’ve worked on the Cabot Circus project, our remit has evolved – from promoting the detailed designs and facilitating public consultation, to building momentum ahead of its opening in September 2008 and, more recently, positioning Cabot Circus as the fashion capital of the South West.” !/assets/183/02.jpg! Another key project for Trimedia is their partnership with the Waste & Resources Action Programme with a two-year trade media campaign focusing on raising awareness of the benefits of using quality compost in Brownfield regeneration. They then delivered the award-winning consumer launch campaign in 2007/8 for WRAP’s Love Food Hate Waste initiative. Having recently extended their contract with WRAP, Bowden-Green says, “We’re delighted to be continuing our work as part of their Retail Supply Chain programmes.” Other clients are The Environment Agency, Crest Nicholson, BDO Stoy Hayward and Envirowise. This year has seen Trimedia appoint Ruby Quince to the newly created role of Head of Digital. Ruby is a well-known digital media expert and joins from a competitor consultancy. “The exponential growth of online and social media has provided us with many opportunities that we took the decision to invest in Ruby’s skills and experience to lead the charge.” !/assets/183/03.jpg! Trimedia’s dedicated attitude and ability to deliver exemplary results has seen it win a number of awards recently. These include ‘Outstanding Public Relations Consultancy’ in the 2008 CIPR PRide awards and it also won the national accolade in the CIPR President’s Grand Prix Awards, beating regional winners from across the UK. It was also named ‘PR Company of the Year’ in the European Excellence Awards and one of the Sunday Times’s ‘Best Small Companies to Work For’. The agency predicts next year it will be doing a lot more work with digital and social media partners. “The media landscape is changing, so it is important that we help clients to adapt to this and communicate in new ways.” 0 20 183 London, Birmingham, Bristol, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Leeds, Manchester, Southampton Caroline.Searle@trimediauk.com Caroline Searle 0117 9292311 false false Trimedia was responsible for launching Cabot Circus, generating well over 1,000 pieces of media coverage in 2008 alone.

Deloitte We have been retained by Deloitte to handle public relations across the SW, reporting to the Bristol office. Deloitte is a highly-respected and well-known name in accountancy, and we at Grayling feel that working together will be to our mutual benefit. 1 Trimedia is also part of Huntsworth. Robert Fenner Director Grayling 1 2009-04-16T17:03:47Z !/assets/135/01.jpg! Fee based income approx. £2,000,000 from South West office. Grayling specialises in integrated communications programmes through a number of key offerings, including public relations, public affairs, corporate communications, financial relations and event management. In July 2008, Director Robert Fenner moved from the London office to take over the running of the Bristol operation. It’s from this base that its serves the needs of clients on both a regional and a national basis. The company’s portfolio is broad, encompassing sectors such as finance and consultancy, food and drink, travel and leisure. Key wins this year include Lloyds TSB Corporate Markets, Royal Mint and English Heritage. Fenner says, “All of these are nationally recognised names that we are proud to represent, both in the region and across the UK.” The work carried out for Royal Mint saw Grayling asked to raise awareness of the Royal Mint’s new commemorative coin to celebrate the birth of Charles Darwin and the publication of his revolutionary work On the Origin of the Species. By working with the Natural History Museum, the team took a series of photographs showing the coin with a first edition of On the Origin of the Species. These striking images were issued with launch press materials to national and regional consumer media, as well as specialist press targeted at readers with an interest in collectables and British heritage. The launch secured coverage in a wide variety of print and online media including the Financial Times, The Times, Mirror.co.uk, Yorkshire Post, Birmingham Post and Coin News. The launch was such a success that it generated more than 30.6 million opportunities to read about the Royal Mint’s new coin.

AXA Sun Life Direct A well contested pitch for a great account, where we are confident to help them build business success through on and offline direct response advertising 1 McCann Erickson World Group, Momentum, Weber Shandwick, Futurebrand, MRM, Universal McCann, Magna and all other IPG affiliates Fraser Bradshaw Managing Director McCann Erickson Bristol 1 2009-04-18T12:23:24Z !/assets/177/logo.jpg! Fee based income approx. £2,500,000 As one of the region’s leading integrated advertising and marketing communications agencies, McCann Erickson has been based in Bristol for two decades. As a leading full service agency since, it re-branded as a fully integrated communications house in 2005. McCann continually responds to shifts in consumer behaviour and clients’ marketing needs. The last 12 months has been busy in terms of client work, but has also seen new divisions and new premises. The team moved, at the end of 2008, to an office twice the size of their old one – located on Bristol’s waterfront – it includes a bistro, purpose-built research rooms and usability labs for website and SCUA testing. Another significant development saw McCann Erickson launch a Research division at the beginning of 2009. Run by Duncan Nealon, formerly from Millward Brown, the company has trained its planners as qualified moderators and now runs focus groups and mini-depth interviews as well offering seven packaged research tools. !/assets/177/01.jpg! The beginning of 2009 also saw the company running the first of several in-house conferences. The first, entitled ‘Hit or Myth’, focused on the over-50s market. This conference was the fruit of nine months’ labour with Experian, working exclusively in partnership with The Future Foundation and n-Vision to deliver new insight into societal trends and themes. May also saw the launch of McCann SoMe, a social media team within the group’s PR business – the result of a detailed usage and attitude survey, as well as a year of staff training. McCann’s network affiliations have grown across the UK this year, specifically with their partners in EMEA, which has developed new agency and client portals sharing information and insight. Seventeen staff have just gone through the company’s first digital diploma training, with 17 more to follow in the autumn. !/assets/177/02.jpg! This year has seen the company’s focus on excellence in each discipline evolve, with ongoing growth in digital and direct marketing, as well as a clear shift from advertising to ‘brand response’ marketing. Managing Director of McCann Erickson Bristol, Fraser Bradshaw says, “Our business strategy in the last 12-months has been to continuing to focus on demand creation. What our clients need is more demand. “This year we’ve also invested heavily in loving our clients more. Each month we’ve focused on new channels or initiatives to help them maintain and grow their share. We’ve increased our investment in shared training and learning too.” There were a series of good wins during the course of the last 12 months. McCann landed the Cable & Wireless account, handling retail, mobile, broadband and landline businesses off shore; a great win with some fantastic work coming out of this on an integrated basis. It was also appointed by AXA Sun Life Direct and has developed several new campaigns since. In March, it was formally appointed to handle Ordnance Survey, after a long and well-contested pitch process. !/assets/177/03.jpg! Harley Davidson and Buell digital accounts were also put to pitch and won against good national competition but the greatest excitement within the agency came from the Olympics win, which Bradshaw says: “Will involve a concerted effort from all of the McCann UK agencies over the next three years. It’s a great opportunity for us as a team to do some great once in a lifetime work.” As an award-winning agency, there’s not a year that goes by without one project or another bringing home a cabinet full of awards, and the last year has been no exception. Awards included: Drum: Design Strategy finalist – The Mall, Cribbs Causeway; Fresh Digital Gold – HiQ Online; Digital Innovation, Fresh Digital Gold - HiQ tv; and CIPR Silver – Goodyear Dunlop. Another great illustration of how successful McCann’s output has been over the last few months is demonstrated in the results of their client satisfaction survey. This year 100% of the clients surveyed said they would recommend McCann to other marketers – surely a very good sign for the company over the coming year? Bradshaw agrees, but adds, “There’s no doubt that over the next 12 months, we have to be pragmatic about growth. And we’ll continue to seek good, healthy client partnerships where we can invest in long term relationships.” 3 50 177 London, Manchester, Birmingham, Dublin fraser.bradshaw@europe.mccann.com Fraser Bradshaw 0117 921 1764 false false 1.

Dickinson's Real Deal - Two year commission 1 Part of RDF Media Group Mark Hill Head of RDF West RDF Television West 1 2009-04-21T10:41:35Z !/assets/187/logo.jpg! As a fairly young company which started from scratch less than three years ago, RDF Television West (RDF West) now has a 40-strong team based out of Regent House in Clifton in Bristol. The company has had both a successful and exciting year. “You go through stages,” says Head of Programmes Mark Hill. “The first couple of years were about working to get enough commissions to really get us going and the last 12 months have seen us working to retain and strengthen our umbrella of returning series.” The company has also been exploring new sectors and looking at ways of diversifying its offering. “We’ve stuck to our core strengths, but are making sure we diversify across broadcasters and factual and entertainment genres. Our ambition is to build a broad-based production company, so we are not dependent on one broadcaster, genre, series etc.” !/assets/187/01.jpg! One key development has been the relationship with Channel 4. Hill says: “Bristol’s broadcast sector has many strengths – but traditionally it has not been a big volume supplier to Channel 4. We felt there was an opportunity to grow more programming for it in Bristol, especially as it needs to commission more out of London generally.” This year RDF West has produced 50 hours of programming for Channel 4. “This is good news for us, but also for Bristol, as it makes it more confident in commissioning out of Bristol generally.” RDF West’s three main series for the Channel are Scrapheap Challenge, Wife Swap and The Secret Millionaire. This year has seen RDF West tasked with completely reinventing the Scrapheap Challenge brand and producing over 20 hours of new shows with new presenter Dick Strawbridge. As for Wife Swap, this is arguably RDF’s biggest selling international series and is currently jointly produced between RDF Television based in London and RDF West, but Hill says if the series comes back later this year, it will be produced solely out of Bristol. In a similar move, The Secret Millionaire, again currently produced out of both London and Bristol, has just been re-commissioned for a fourth series which will now be produced in Bristol. Other significant happenings this year have included a two year deal with ITV for RDF to produce Dickinson’s Real Deal with David Dickinson, which has been a massive success for ITV and turned around their afternoon schedule. RDF are producing 160 hours of the show over its two year run which began in late 2007. Other productions for ITV include two 40-part series of Rosemary Shrager’s School for Cooks and the creation of a brand with ITV called The Truth About... !/assets/187/02.jpg! On the BBC front, RDF has made a 20-part food series, Eating With The Enemy with chef James Martin, which has also gone on to have a run on UKTV. They have also produced three series of the popular Oz Clarke and James May series Oz & James for BBC2. The most recent series, Oz & James Drink To Britain, has been one of BBC2’s most successful series this year, with audiences averaging over three million with a fourth series and Christmas special now being planned. Awards over the last 12 months include a regional RTS for Oz & James and a BAFTA nomination for The Secret Millionaire. RDF West has made a number of key appointments in the last 12 months. These include Jane Lomas who joined from Diverse in May 2008 as Executive Producer and has been looking after Wife Swap and Scrapheap Challenge. Serena Kennedy also joined in May 2008 from Maverick and has been appointed as Head of Production. The team has also seen the appointment of two highly experienced Production Executives – Julia Hunt from Endemol and Emma Dowley from RDF in London. Last year also saw RDF participate in a one-year trainee scheme funded by South West Screen that saw them take on trainees for three months with Two Four, the BBC and Films at 59 in an effort to provide fast-track industry experience. !/assets/187/03.jpg! Looking forward to the year ahead, Hill says: “We will be looking to build on our existing broadcaster and commissioner relationships and will also be looking to expand to work with Sky and Five. The independent production industry is facing a difficult and challenging time, but broadcasters need to keep commissioning and we have to keep our confidence in our abilities. You have to be able to diversify or specialise to survive.” 7 10 187 Jane Lomas - Execuitive Producer Serena Kennedy - Head of Production Julia Hunt - Production Executive Emma Dowley - Production Executive London, Cardiff, Glasgow laura.woolley@rdftelevision.com Laura Woolley 0117 970 7628 true false Dickinson’s Real Deal, ITV, 160 x 60 Rosemary Shrager’s School for Cooks, ITV, 40 x 60 The Secret Millionaire, C4, 10 x 60 Wife Swap, C4, 5 x 60 Oz and James Drink to Britain, BBC2, 8 x 30 Eating with the Enemy, BBC2, 20 x 45 Scrapheap Challenge, C4, 20 x 60 The Truth about Binge Drinking, ITV, 1 x 60 Perfect Housewife, BBC3, 8 x 60 24 true false 10 31 BS8 4HG 5 82 155 serena.kennedy@rdftelevision.com Serena Kennedy 0117 970 7650 0117 970 7600 true Bristol 9036000 false 7975000 true 2009-06-01T16:37:31Z www.rdftelevision.com 2005

Award nominated Cobra Beer: In 2008 The Real Adventure was appointed as the Direct Marketing agency for Cobra Beer, and part of the following campaign devised for Cobra Beer has recently been shortlisted for Marketing Society Awards for Excellence 2009. Cobra Beer is experiencing high year of year growth rates in a declining market, and came to The Real Adventure to help maintain this growth in the grocery channel. Using our expertise in driving penetration within grocery, The Real Adventure has produced a direct marketing campaign for Cobra which has exceeded even our most optimistic expectations. 1 Creston Group companies including: EMO TMW DLKW ICM Pan Communications Nelson Bostock Communications Fraser Cook Managing Director The Real Adventure Marketing Communications 6 2009-04-21T10:47:09Z !/assets/188/logo.jpg! Fee based income approx. £3,800,000 The Real Adventure has spent the last 12 months largely focusing on their existing clients. Business Development Director Simon Brace says, “Rather than pitching for new business, we’ve been making sure we offer maximum support to our loyal and longstanding client base. Many of our clients’ businesses are especially sensitive to the current economic climate, so we are investing energies to ensure they’re equipped with the right strategy and creative for the challenging times ahead.” The company has recently undergone some departmental restructurings to drive efficiencies that are now being passed directly onto their clients, with a view to ultimately delivering even greater campaign ROIs. As an agency that specialises in FMCG, Baby and Finance, the last 12 months have been packed with awards for effectiveness and creativity. Sweeping the boards in October at The Grocer’s GRAMIA awards, the TRA team won all four awards in the DM category, for their work on Tropicana, Copella, Quaker and Walkers Sunbites. They also collected the Diamond GRAMIA for the most effective DM campaign and were crowned DM Agency of the Year for the second consecutive year. The team cites Cobra Beer as its most significant win of the year, the campaign for which has recently been shortlisted for the Marketing Society Awards for Excellence 2009. Cobra is experiencing high year on year growth rates in a declining market, and came to The Real Adventure to help maintain this growth. The team created a nationwide door drop, which, as Brace says, “creatively engaged quite simply. The challenge with door drops and direct mail is balancing investment in creative formats with producing an item that is efficient to produce and distribute. Many agencies indulge themselves in creative formats that are costly and so will rarely deliver a positive ROI.” Brace also points out one of the reasons campaigns such as these succeed at The Real Adventure: “We have supreme confidence in our targeting methodology – we know what we do works because we evaluate using transactional data to see the actual, not predicted, impact on penetration and sales. The Cobra campaign has been incredibly successful and makes for another impressive case study on delivering extremely positive returns.” !/assets/188/01.jpg! Other significant work has come from TRA’s ongoing and well established relationship with Cow & Gate. This year has seen the team continue to deliver outstanding results in an especially competitive and highly regulated category. TRA has developed and manages the brand website as part of the ongoing CRM programme that they also plan and execute. This year, the programme which is so pivotal to Cow & Gate’s business performance, was awarded a Bronze for Customer Acquisition by the DMA. The programme has evolved into a highly complex but equally efficient tool for the brand. “An integrated content management system triggers outbound communications at the relevant time for each mum, drives the digital elements which enable us to personalise mailings, emails and the website, and allows us to track how mums engage with the brand. Thirty percent of our target market actively choose to join and stay in the programme. What’s more, they rate our communication incredibly highly, giving an overall satisfaction score of 8.4 out of 10.” Key client Pepsico has also been making continued use of TRA’s expertise, working closely to create campaigns for their premium juice brands, Tropicana and Copella. The Tropicana door drop campaigns have played a key contributory role in driving the brand’s growth from 15% penetration in 2004 to 25% by 2007. Transactional data for the 2008 campaign went on to show a +12% relative penetration uplift, delivering a ROI of 239%. The team was also brought in to develop and run Walkers’ eCRM programme. Coupling a bespoke segmentation model with evermore engaging creative, TRA have encouraged a database of over half a million crisp fans to reignite their passion for the brand. The eCRM programme has ensured that Walkers’ recent ‘Do us a Flavour’ campaign engaged its biggest advocates, helping deliver over one million new flavour entries and then another million flavour votes. A remarkable success that has brought The Real Adventure and Pepsico even closer together. 5 50 188 fraser.cook@realadventure.co.uk Fraser Cook 01225 476014 true false Award winning Cow and Gate website and CRM programme: Recently awarded Bronze in Customer Acquisition by the DMA, The Real Adventure devised and manages Cow & Gate’s website and CRM programme. The programme aims to provide a reliable source of information and guidance for new mums looking to reassure themselves they’re making the right decisions for their baby. The Real Adventure promotes the Mum & Baby Club through media channels which provide an acceptable cost-per-recruit, and then use a combination of direct mail and email to provide regular guidance to the mums who register. Outbound communications are supported by one-to-one services for even more tailored support: a team of healthcare professionals and experienced mums contactable via phone, email or live chat, forums and social networking features. An integrated contact management system triggers outbound communications at the right time for each mum, drives the digital elements which enable us to personalise mailings, emails and the website based on the information mums give us, and allows us to track how mums engage with the brand. 30% of our target market actively choose to join and stay in the programme. They rate our communication incredibly highly, giving an overall satisfaction rating of 8.4 out of 10. Tropicana Gramia winning Door Drop campaign: The Real Adventure's door drop campaigns played a key contributory role in driving Tropicana's growth from 15% penetration in 2004 to 25% by 2007. In 2008 we needed to continue fuelling this growth in high value households. Because driving penetration was paramount, maximising reach on a finite budget was crucial. We had to balance between engaging consumers, while being simple to produce and distribute. By combining weight of purchase and penetration data, appended to geodemographic profiles, we identified high value sectors that we could target with door drops. The creative was simple but engaging to maximise reach, clearly promoting "50p off", and amplifying Tropicana's poster campaign, delivering expertise in 'all fruit'. Transactional data showed a +12% penetration uplift over a control cell, delivering a ROI of 239%. A significant proportion of the sales uplift came from consumers who did not redeem the coupon, demonstrating the door drop worked like a press ad for many consumers, actively engaging them with Tropicana without needing a financial incentive. Black Horse finance: customer acquisition and retention strategies using direct mail. Direct Mail is a key component to Black Horse Finance acquisition and retention strategies. Their customer base is segmented into different categories of customers, each with very specific, targeted offers, making it essential to minimise the risk of customers getting the wrong offer. Our brief was to develop a new communication to achieve doormat cut-through and maximum response. We developed a new ‘Read and Print’ technique; a technique which allows bespoke envelopes to be printed, allowing greater focus on the offer. Black Horse was first in the UK to use this process, demonstrating their courage in commissioning this approach. Working with the proposition, ‘money with your name on it’, we were able to literally and visually convey this on the envelope, lasering each customer’s name and address in a band across a stack of money. Using the extra space - which would normally have been taken up by the address – allowed us to develop strong imagery which would make the loan offer more tangible and ensure the concept was simple, direct and immediately understood. Due to the sensitivity of results data, we can’t quote actual results figures. However, not only was response significantly uplifted but so too were advances. Walkers eCRM programme: Being one of the UK’s most loved brands, Walkers recognises the important of the relationship it has with its consumers, and is looking to nurture and grow it over time. Fun and consumer engagement are key to delivering this, and with the help of The Real Adventure, Walkers now has one of the most comprehensive and active eCRM programmes of any FMCG brand. Packed with highly personalised, fun and engaging content, The Real Adventure is responsible for devising the strategy, segmentation, timing, content, design and copy for the entire programme and is seeing hugely impressive results and return. Due to its commerciality we can’t share campaign performance, but as an indication, we have seen open rates in excess of 77%! Diamond Gramia award winning Quaker campaign: In 2008 The Real Adventure won ‘best in class’ from The Grocer magazine for its Quaker oats direct marketing campaign. To support the launch of a new range of cold oat-based cereals from Quaker, with no significant above the line support, The Real Adventure used highly effective profiling to identify target postcode sectors with the highest potential value that we could door drop. The creative idea revolved around an ice-cold milk bottle which immediately signalled a cold Quaker product and promoted an irresistible taste promise. Transactional data demonstrated considerable uplifts relative to a control cell sustained over a 12 week post period: Penetration: +35.2% Market share: +27.4% Sales uplift: +34.9% The brand trialists were more upmarket and younger than Quaker's traditional profile, indicating the campaign was broadening Quaker's consumer base. false true Creston plc 100 60 54 BA1 2BT 2 MPS Ltd, Bristol Park Lane Press, Corsham Wincanton Press, Wincanton Formpro, Bristol Kingsdown, Bristol Colour Studios, Radstock Ralph Allen Press, Bath 138 156 simon.brace@realadventure.co.uk Simon Brace 01225 476076 01225 476 100 true Bath 8900000 false 9900000 true 2009-06-01T10:30:31Z www.realadventure.co.uk FMCG Financial Services Baby and Toddler Pharmaceutical 1991

Social network & community project for the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA), based on extensive consulting with the client during 2008 (going live on 20th April). 1 Ben Heald CEO Sift 1 2009-04-17T12:24:50Z !/assets/149/logo.jpg! Ben Heald, CEO of Bristol-based Sift, says his company is proof that the future of publishing is online, on the one hand as a publisher in its own right through its Sift Media business, and on the other as a digital agency with a number of publishing clients; so perhaps the sector isn’t as hard hit by the current climate as some might have us believe. Heald says, “The last 12 months have been about leveraging our position as experts in the online community/social networking space to grow the business long term.” !/assets/149/01.jpg! Historically, Sift has been known for its traditional publishing offering, but with the sector suffering over the last nine months, it has been focusing more on the public sector, member associations and not-for-profits. It has have also retained its focus on the accountancy sector, trying to grab a bigger share of wallet from their 1,000 accountancy firm clients. In a slightly unusually turn for an online publisher, Sift has recently launched a number of new events: ThePitch 2009 (a regional competition for start-up businesses in partnership with the IOD); and a cloud computing summit in December following the recent launch of its cloud computing community BusinessCloud9.com. In terms of new sectors, they’ve launched FinReg21.com – an online community focused on helping to reform the global financial industry and have also started to look more at the corporate sector for new clients. The company had also planned to launch its first business lifestyle site late last year, but given the sudden gloomy skies, this was temporarily placed on hold. !/assets/149/02.jpg! The team cite some of its most memorable contracts from the last year as FinReg21.com – a joint venture with US business Market Platform Dynamics to develop a community for those affected by new global financial regulation. It is also proud of BusinessCloud9.com – Sift’s own community aimed at those interested in cloud computing. Ascent Publishing is another one – a range of sites for Ascent (part of Centaur Media) including Homebuilding & Renovating (www.homebuilding.co.uk) and Plotfinder (www.plotfinder.net). There has also been the Kennel Club – a range of sites for the Kennel Club including the main site (www.thekennelclub.co.uk) and the Crufts site (www.crufts.org.uk). But it says that the development of a social network and community project for the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA) has been the most significant win on the whole year. In the world of glittering awards dinners, Sift has been to its fair share, having been nominated for two awards (Specialist Digital Publisher & Digital Publisher – Business) at this year’s Association of Online Publishers (AOP) Awards. In addition, in early 2009 Heald took part in WebMission 2009 (a competition for the UK’s most exciting Web 2.0 businesses to visit and network in Silicon Valley for a week). Other significant developments include the appointment of Alan Howarth as the new Chairman following Bill Passmore’s retirement. “Alan’s very well connected – you can never do enough networking – so that has been all positive. Beyond that, while there have been no changes to the SMT, we have a new four-person events team and put investment into account management.” !/assets/149/03.jpg! Reflecting on the recession, Heald says, “Like everyone, we’re seeing some delays in sign-offs from clients and an ever-increasing focus on ROI. We’re trying to be cautious about hiring new staff, but, at the same time, now’s the time to take advantage of the rapid changes that the digital revolution is offering. We have increased head count by approximately 15 over the last 12 months.” As for the next 12 months, the year ahead is set to see more growth for Sift. “We’re currently looking at an acquisition and in Q4 will be releasing a new product for our accountancy firm clients.” And, as if they aren’t busy enough, in August 2009, the Sift team is due to up sticks and relocate to bigger offices (11,000 sq ft), which are situated right next to Bristol’s thriving St Nick’s Market. 5 60 149 Paul Southgate - Account Manager [Paul joined us from failed Bristol business Brilliant Weekends] David Karney - Business Development Manager [David joined us from Bristol business Potential Difference Warren Turney - Management Accountant [Warren joined us from Bristol business ITC Compliance] bheald@sift.com Ben Heald (CEO) 07710 428871 true false FinReg21.com - joint venture with US business Market Platform Dynamics to develop community for those affected by new global financial regulation.

Around the World in Eighty Trades - this is a significant commission for Channel 4 and our first for them in some years which has provided a good relationship between us and C4 Wild/Nature Shock - provides good returning revenue from worldwide sales and is the third series of these shows we have made. 1 None Andrew Jackson Managing Director Tigress Productions 1 2009-03-30T09:47:37Z !/assets/54/01.jpg! The last year has seen Tigress work hard to consolidate the growth in its commissioner base which has resulted in the hugely successful Monty Halls’ Great Escape for BBC2 and the recent critically acclaimed Around the World in 80 Trades. Having been bought by IMG in 2005, Tigress couldn’t be happier with its development this year. From a relatively US-centric base of programming, producing 40 hours a year for the American market, Tigress is finally firmly on the UK commissioners’ map. Its achievements include producing a number of series for Five, including Nature Shock and Austin Stevens’ Adventures. Elsewhere for the BBC, Tigress has continued its success in the Natural World sector with Titus: The Gorilla King and Ben’s Zoo. However, it’s commissions such as Will Work For Nuts and Mr & Mrs Wolf for Five, João Magueijo’s Big Bang for the Science Channel and Around the World in 80 Trades for Channel 4 that signify Tigress as a fully fledged factual entertainment producer. Gaining the Channel 4 commission to produce Around the World in 80 Trades is the contract that the Tigress team cites as its most significant this year. MD Andrew Jackson says, “It was our first commission from Channel 4 in years – in the early part of 2000 to 2004, we had several science, history and wildlife soap shows on Channel 4. However, as its tastes changed, we have had a four-year gap. Channel 4 is an important supplier – it does great programmes and we love producing for them, so Around the World in 80 Trades has been good news.”  Recent awards and nominations include the Wildlife Film Festival and Wildscreen Panda 2008 Awards for Will Work For Nuts, RTS West of England 2008 for Living with the Wolfman, Titus:The Gorilla King and João Magueijo’s Big Bang, plus a special Jury Prize for Innovation & Technical Achievement for Everest Beyond the Limit Season 2. 37 50 54 London bethlintern@tigressproductions.co.uk Beth Lintern 0117 9335694 true false Austin Stevens Adventures as this is a multi-million pound co-production providing significant income 4 true true IMG 100 10 50 BS8 1LT 5 SW Chamber of Commerce Business West PACT Films @ 59 54 51 fionabannister@tigressproductons.co.uk Fiona Bannister 0117 9335600 0117 9335600 true Bristol 7000000 true 8000000 true 2009-05-29T12:33:48Z www.tigressproductions.co.uk Specialist factual 1991

It's difficult to highlight one project/client as there were a number of new projects won in the past year. 1 Gina Fucci MD Films at 59 1 2009-04-28T14:02:11Z !/assets/198/01.jpg! According to Business Development Manager George Panayiotou, Films at 59 prides itself on the creative and technical service it offers at affordable rates. The past year has seen it complete the vision and sound post on a number of high-profile productions, while increasing its grading profile, with a focus on drama. This year has also seen the company become more involved with file-based technology such as P2 and XDCAM. Panayiotou says, “This area has gained significant momentum this year and we are able to offer specialist workflow solutions to our clients to ensure they cover all aspects of this technology, including long-term archive of rushes as data. Media management will also be a key consideration for production teams.” As a company that also has a reputation for being able to deliver fast turnaround projects on budget and on schedule, the current climate has provided an opening for the team to adapt its working practises to accommodate deeper and wider spread budget cuts. “Our clients require the same standard of service and quality of programme – so we work closely with them to ensure we can deliver a sustainable solution.” The company’s post production work has also seen it short listed as one of six finalists (and the only non-London based company), for ‘Best UK Post Production House’, Broadcast Awards 2009. Panayiotou also champions the benefits in offering both post production and equipment hire services: “Having an equipment hire department gives us the opportunity of being involved with production teams at an early stage and we can advise on their post process.” One of the company’s longest standing clients is Casualty. Despite the decision to move the BBC series to Cardiff in 2011, Films at 59 is pleased to have won the contract to supply kit and crew for the next 12 months. “The decision to move Casualty is a big blow for the region. Key for us is to work hard to keep as much in the region as possible.” 3 60 198 gp@filmsat59.com George Panayiotou +44 (0)117 906 4300 true false There were a number of projects that were significant to our business, ranging from returning daytime series to drama projects using the latest digital technology. false false 90 95 BS6 6JR 5 UK Screen Association UKTI 144 162 glf@filmsat59.com Gina Fucci +44 (0)117 906 4300 +44 (0)117 906 4300 true Bristol 7000000 false 8000000 true 2009-06-01T17:05:29Z www.filmsat59.com Drama Documentary Specialist Factual Childrens Animation Wildlife 1990

UKTI Case Studies UKTI (UK Trade and Investment) is a government organization which provides advice and practical help to British companies who want to take their products and services to overseas markets. The work of UKTI is invaluable to small businesses who wish to expand into larger markets. UKTI South West commissioned a number of case studies to illustrate the services and support schemes they provide to local businesses and highlights the achievements of regional businesses who have received their help and advice. CC Two filmed a case study with one of UKTI’s clients, Adrenaline Motor Sports, a company based just outside of Newquay who design, develop and manufacture specialist sports cars. UKTI South West worked with AMS to help them develop their international trade. Using our talented pool of South West based freelancers were able to produce a quirky, creative video that still managed convey the informative message. This was a project that we were very excited to be involved in since it aims to help support and develop local business. AMS were so pleased with the video that they now host it on their own web site as promotional tool. The Case Studies also won Bronze at the Mercury Awards 2009. 1 N/A Huw Morgan Managing Director CC Two 1 2009-04-17T15:28:09Z !/assets/167/01.jpg! CC Two is the new name of the digital division of the events company Conference Connections. Reflecting on the decision to rename the brand, CD Chris Tuff says, “The company has evolved and extended the range of services it offers over the last 18 years to encompass video, design, web-based media and other creative services. The name therefore no longer reflected the full extent of the business and, while the more functional events will continue to operate under the name of Conference Connections, video, experiential and ‘creative media’ will operate as CC Two.” Key wins for CC Two include the contract with a major financial services company to produce an event for 1,500 of their Customer Service Managers to address issues with service and performance and to highlight the importance of effective coaching. “We turned the tables and put four of the client trainers through an intensive programme of ballroom dancing. The cameras followed each stage of their progress and culminated in a live performance at the event where the clients danced in front of 1,500 of their peers partnered by the dancers from the BBC show Strictly Come Dancing. The event and videos encompassed all of the company’s capabilities, including live cameras, pre-recorded inserts and staging a creative event. It also won the team a Silver and Honours at the Mercury 2009 awards. This year also saw the team work on a series of films – for a division of a major high street bank – made to illustrate the potential ‘fallout’ that arises from critical illness. The films received a Bronze Mercury Award 2009 and a Bronze World Medal at the NY Film Festival 2009. CC Two cite their biggest win of the year as their work for UKTI Case Studies. The team filmed a case study with one of UKTI’s clients, Adrenaline Motor Sports, which help them develop their international trade. 7 50 167 Nick Crossland, Head of Live Events This new role within the company has been developed as part of a management restructure to support the recent growth in the parent company’s business and the launch of CC Two. This newly appointed role is a real sign that the company is expanding and evolving. Kate Glyn-Jones, Production Assistant Kate is the newest addition to the CC Two video department and is always there to help out whether it is in the edit suites or organising shoots. Kate’s role is a further demonstration that of the development of the company and that we are expanding with our clients needs. rosie@conference-connections.co.uk Rosie Dynevor 0845 017 6222 true false - Strictly Recommended Live Event and VTs We were approached by major financial services company to produce an event for 1,500 of their Customer Service Managers to address issues with service and performance and to highlight the important of effective coaching. CC Two developed the concept of ‘Strictly Recommended’ a two day live event to demonstrate what could be achieved with exceptional coaching. We turned the tables and put four of the client trainers through an intensive programme of ballroom dancing. Over six weeks leading up to the event we followed their progress as they were put through their paces by some of Britain’s top dance coaches. The cameras followed each stage of their progress from ‘fledgling foxtroters’ to ‘top tangoers’ and ‘salsa sensations’! This culminated in a live performance at the event where that danced in front of 1500 of their peers partnered by the Stars/Dancers from The BBC TV show Strictly Come Dancing. The opener and stings for the event were designed to reflect this ‘dance’ based theme, with a specially choreographed sequence with a group of professional dancers (Cuban Groove – Salsa world champions) rehearsing and being coached by choreographers and lead dancers Jacky and Chris and transformed into a stunning performance at London’s Café de Paris. The event and videos were a significant project for CC Two, not only because of the large scale nature of the event but also because it encompassed all of CC Two's capabilities including live cameras, pre recorded inserts with celebrity dancers and chefs, and staging a creative event. A project of this size required local freelancers, companies and suppliers to work together in doing what they do best! The event and VTs were extremely well received and won a Silver and Honours at the Mercury 2009 awards. - Ray’s Story Ray’s story was the third in a series of films produced for a division of a major high street bank. The film was made to illustrate the potential legal, financial and emotional ‘fallout’ that arises when critical illness occurs. Ray, a sole trader builder, finds out how hard it is to keep his life, family and business together while receiving a year long course of treatment for a serious illness that prevents him from working and threatens to take everything that really matters to him. Based on a ‘real-life’ scenario, Ray’s Story confronts the issues that arise when a person is diagnosed with an illness and hasn’t made any financial provision. Ray’s Story was commissioned on the back of the success of two other dramas for the same division- Mike’s Story and Jenny’s Story. Both received rave reviews from the commercial sector as well as industrial accolade; Mike’s Story won a Bronze Mercury Award 2009 and Jenny’s Story a Bronze World Medal at the New York Film Festival 2009. Shot in West Bristol, the production of Ray’s Story was a real ‘local affair’. Regional freelance crew teamed up with our in-house directors and editors to produce a short yet powerful drama which dispels common misconception surrounding the function of critical illness cover. - Airbus/ GKN Aerospace When GKN Aerospace took over the Airbus wing assembly plant at Filton Airfield near Bristol it was decided that a series of presentations be given to the staff to give them confidence in GKN and reveal plans for expansion in the future, securing hundreds of local jobs. We were asked to transform a large hangar unit into an auditorium fit for presentations along with large screen projection. On the first morning of GKN’s ownership of the plant all 400 staff were treated to a launch event and speeches from the new senior management team welcoming them into the GKN family. Feedback from the audience was very positive and the event was well received We continue to support GKN and Airbus with all of their presentations, staff communications and award ceremonies, using local venues and suppliers. false false 40 21 BS34 6QD 5 IVCA, MIMA Big Squid Big Bang DogHouse South West Screen Mad Elephant Productions Red River Media Ltd Fremar Films Resolution Films Western eye Favourite Films Ltd DB Dubbing Buxton Knight Finalize Media Enfys TV Cardiff Eyelights Panalux Visual Impact Central Presentations Profile Vision Stage Electrics Flat Earth Special Events 48 141 chris@conference-connections.co.uk Chris Tuff 0845 017 6222 0845 017 6222 true Bristol 6900000 false 6400000 true 2009-06-03T14:10:20Z www.cctwo.co.uk Major financials, transport and government bodies.

Two major US contracts 1 One Brand Group Olaus Roe Cow Creative Imagist Studios Tony Marwick Managing Director oakwood media group 1 2009-03-23T17:21:46Z !/assets/34/logo.jpg! “Our strategy for the last year has been growth,” says Tony Marwick, MD of oakwood. “It’s not always about going out and winning new clients; this year we’ve been working to expand our client offering to help our existing clients grow - which in turn helps us grow.” This year has seen oakwood expand beyond design into strategic positioning and consultancy and it looks like the strategy has paid off. The agency’s long standing relationship with BP has developed considerably over the last twelve months. “BP chose us to implement a soft launch of their re-brand - with all communications under one new identifier - BP Gas. The project required brand strategy and implementation across a diverse range of marketing communications. These had to encompass brand identity, third party applications, internal communications, direct mail and livery. The resulting strategy was showcased in a comprehensive BP Gas Style guide, available as a printed item for quick reference and in a more detailed form on a dedicated on-line BP Gas portal.” !/assets/34/01.jpg! Another key project was the work carried out on behalf of US toy giant Mattel. The team were commissioned to work on a huge party in celebration of Barbie’s 50th birthday for which they revamped the existing Barbie concession in Hamleys - adding Barbie’s enviable style and glamour to the area which spread across the entire ground floor. The expansion of their digital offering throughout 2008 has also proved a successful move, seeing their team honoured with an Interactive Media ‘Outstanding Achievement Award’ for their work for Entertainment Rights on the Rupert Bear Eco Explorers website. According to Marwick,projects like these have been at the forefront of oakwood’s thinking this year: “Most of our growth this year is our expansion into digital, multimedia, strategic positioning and moving image.” The agency added 15 new members to their team this year, including account handlers, graphic designers and digital experts. This year has also seen significant investment into their Bristol HQ on Park Street which has undergone a full redesign and makeover. “After 12 years in residence we’ve created a fresh and eclectic look for our entrance stairs, reception and boardroom - utilising contemporary materials, lighting and colours. The new styling showcases recent work with large display canvases and marks a strong contrast with the original decor.” 2009 will see the agency focus on further expansion and growth and invest further into client services. “In the current climate, strong client relationships are vital and agencies need to identify where and how they can add value to their client’s business above on beyond. That’s the way we’ve built our business, by supporting our clients at every opportunity. As long as we’re willing to be efficient and account for every penny – we predict things should continue to thrive. ourselves on – we predict things should continue to thrive whatever the economic forecast.” 4 50 34 n/a London/Birmingham tony.marwick@oakwood-mg.com Tony Marwick 0117 983 6789 true false Two major USA contracts which developed our international expertise. 0 true false 10 62 BS1 5NF 3 DBA, IOD, CBI n/a 37 37 Jess.Ellis @oakwood-dc.com Jess Ellis 0117 983 6789 0117 983 6789 true Bristol 6300000 false 4000000 true 2009-05-29T12:33:47Z www.oakwood-mg.com Energy, automotive, children, retail, property, publishing, logistics 2009

One of our big success stories from last year was retaining the direct marketing account with Tourism Ireland. The fact that we beat off competition from some of the UK’s top marketing agencies in the pitch process is testament to passion, team work and creative talents of our happy band. We started working with Tourism Ireland back in 2001 and over the past eight years have delivered some great campaigns for them. We’ve developed a great relationship over the years and the agency is delighted that we can continue to build on our previous success. Over the next three years we’ll be helping Tourism Ireland to develop their brand across multiple direct channels, both on and offline. Using its new brand positioning of ‘Go where Ireland takes you’, we’ll be bringing the campaign to life through evocative and engaging creative that reflects the Emerald Isle’s unique charm and warmth. 1 Marketing Databasics, e-customermetrics, Marketing Reality, Linnaeus Consulting Ian Stockley Managing Director Entire 1 2009-04-08T16:08:36Z !/assets/69/01.jpg! The installment of two new Account Directors Kate Ingham and Cathy Grant – has had a significant impact on Entire Direct Marketing, which bolstered its senior management team this year to help support the company’s continued growth. Over the past few years, Entire has helped lead many of its clients through the transition from offline to online marketing and it appears this strategy has paid off, with key online contracts including Littlewoods, P&O Cruises and Tourism Ireland. Entire’s areas of speciality – a combination of creative and data skills underpinned by insight-driven planning – were put to the test by Tourism Ireland when the team won, pitched and retained what is arguably the Emerald Isle's biggest direct marketing campaign for the second year in a row. The campaign involved a highly effective monthly eNewsletter programme, where subscribers were encouraged to recommend a friend – and the figures speak for themselves: the average number of friends referred increased by 400%; opt-in rates from friends increased by 30%; and total new-to-file names increased by 89%. MD Ian Stockley says, “Over the next three years, we’ll be helping Tourism Ireland to develop its brand across multiple direct channels. Using its new brand positioning of ‘Go where Ireland takes you’, we’ll be bringing the campaign to life through evocative and engaging material that reflects the Emerald Isle’s unique charm and warmth.” This year also saw Entire bag a Silver Direct Marketing Award for its successful campaign for P&O Cruises. “It’s always great to get recognition for a quality piece of work,” said CD Ian Bates. “We’re particularly proud of this campaign as it took the P&O Cruises offer to an audience which hitherto had shown little or no interest in cruising.

National Apprenticeship system: Winning this multi-million pound contract has led S-cool to become a major government supplier and allowed S-cool to rapidly develop a specialist government consulting arm. S-cool is now regularly asked to contribute to governments education and vocational training strategy and policy development, and offers its systems along with practical support to government bodies implementing 14-19 educational policies in all regions of the country. 1 We are a Microsoft Gold Partner. THeodore Mason CEO S-cool 1 2009-04-15T15:58:44Z !/assets/106/01.jpg! S-cool, providers of e-learning solutions to the education and business sectors, went through something of a transformation in 2008, when they split into three divisions; S-cool Education, S-cool Youth Marketing and S-cool Business Services. CEO Theodore Mason explains that while the company already offered three very separate services under the umbrella of S-cool, and while many of the skills needed to implement those services were the same, they knew that in order to help the different divisions grow, each area needed a dedicated and experienced team. The S-cool Education division provides web-based applications which support young people in navigating their learning and career choices. S-cool Education develops and implements products that support over one million learners in secondary education, having been adopted by over half the local authorities in England. 14-19 year olds can use S-cool online resources for a range of activities to support their learning. For instance, learners can search and apply for a range of learning, work experience and other career opportunities. The S-cool Youth Marketing division provides a leading revision website offering exam resources for both students and teachers. The team prides itself on providing excellent revision content, prepared by teachers for both G.C.S.E and A Level courses. Every year, over three million students access the revision site for help with their exam revision. The company’s newest division is S-cool Business Services, which offers an online employee performance management service called ‘ItsGenie People Performance’, a system designed to help businesses improve and sustain employee productivity. It uses real-time dashboard technology to provide instant visibility of effort and achievement. Over the last year, S-cool has gained over 40 employees, has opened a new office in Manchester and is currently hunting for office space in London. 5 50 106 Richard Mojel, Managing Director, S-cool Education. Marissa Ellis, Product Development, S-cool Education. Unus Goga, Public Sector development, S-cool Education. Chris Rogan, Managing Director, S-cool Business. These positions demonstrate S-cool's ability to change and grow to meet market, client and environmental needs. During 08/09 S-cool split into three divisions, each focusing on specific markets and audiences, but retaining a focus on "making more of people". Economies of scale and efficiencies across the business divisions have been successfully maintained. London, Manchester paul.hassan@s-cool.com Paul Hassan 07920262718 true false National Apprenticeship Programme: S-cool developed an online Apprenticeship recruitment and management system and piloted it in three regions of the UK. It was subsequently purchased by the Government to form the basis of their national Apprenticeship programme. Working in partnership with CapGemini (the LSC's contracted IT supplier), S-cool has continued to develop and advise on the national implementation of the apprenticeship system and has become a key supplier to the NAS (the new government body set up to run Apprenticeships in the UK). National Area Wide Prospectus and Common Application: S-cool developed a centralised system for the management and application of all educational and vocational training opportunities across England. In 2009 S-cool went from 3 Local Authority clients to providing over 65% of England's Local Authorities with a coherent system for managing, searching, promoting and applying for these courses. This is the first time a comprehensive search and select system has been implemented for the 14-19 age group in Europe, and is entirely down to S-cool's foresight and R&D investment. Launch of ItsGenie appraisal and business information tools: S-cool has extended the thinking behind a suite of tools originally designed for use in schools to work in the corporate market. It provides an online appraisal system which replaces the paper-based version so often used by organisations. As well as being able to demonstrate increased staff motivation and satisfaction it provides an organisation with a secure "People Business Intelligence Service".

Working with EDF on its nuclear power strategy 1 Stephen Byfield Managing Director PPS Group 1 2009-04-17T14:33:29Z !/assets/159/logo.jpg! According to MD Liam Herbert, PPS is an agency that prides itself on its ability to work in the tougher areas of communications, such as planning and policy development, energy, environmental issues and transport. With its strategy for growth, the last 12 months have seen a number of developments in the South West office, including the appointment of new MD Liam Herbert in March 2009. Having previously worked in communications for the City of London Police and the tobacco industry, the region’s new MD is perfectly at home with private and public sector clients and has broad experience of local government, planning and wider communications issues. Herbert says, “I came on board to grow the PPS business both in the South West and Wales. My background working in corporate communications for complex organisations and dealing with contentious issues at a regional and national level is key to our future direction in the region.” !/assets/159/01.jpg! While there have been a number of substantial wins over the last 12 months, the current economic climate has the ability to make any MDs job tough, but Herbert is resolute that PSS’s strategy to grow the business and consolidation as the recession started to bite will see them succeed. “Our clients in the house building sector have been particularly badly hit which has slowed the rate at which they bring sites forward to market. However, we remain active in overall development programmes and our work in the energy sector and public sector remains strong.” In a move to ensure continued growth, as well as Herbert’s appointment, PPS has also appointed a further two account handlers to their South West office in Bristol – Deb Campbell and Alexia Pradel. Key projects this year include a contract for Devon Wind Power, which saw PPS help secure planning approval as well as organise and manage the transfer to local control of the Fullabrook Wind Farm Community Interest Company (CIC) set up to manage a £3.4m fund provided by Devon Wind Power for sustainable community schemes in North Devon. !/assets/159/02.jpg! PPS has been involved in Fullabrook Wind Farm, a 22 turbine, 66 megawatt installed capacity on-shore wind farm situated between Barnstaple and Ilfracombe since 2005. Prior to submitting its planning application, Devon Wind Power had announced plans to set up a Community Fund with aims to invest in sustainable projects in the local community as soon as the wind farm had started to generate electricity. PPS is also working with EDF on its stakeholder consultation and political engagement programme connected to the proposed nuclear power station at Hinkley. Herbert’s future plan is: “To consolidate the business we have and develop new work with clients with complex issues and need a tough communications consultancy.” 0 50 159 Liam Herbert, managing director South West & Wales.

Having been acquired by the Loewy group in 2007, the last 12 months has seen Epoch Design refocus its business model around their key strengths – namely design for FMCG brands. CEO Anthony Lucas says, “We articulate this as Short Term Thinking – acting decisively and reacting swiftly to changes in the market and environment and helping our clients capitalise on the NOW moment through the implementation of effective brand tactics. It’s about being quick witted and fast acting for our clients to help them gain a competitive edge in the fairly cut-throat retail environment. We help turn consumers into shoppers for their brands.” !/assets/70/01.jpg! Since joining Loewy, Epoch has moved away from offering manufacturing service in 3D POS to concentrate on the design disciplines of branding and retail. This has been initiated primarily to respond to the needs of those clients whose retail requirements have been evolving over recent years. Keen to announce its new positioning, it has been busy working on a new identity for Epoch, which will launch late 2009. !/assets/70/02.jpg! Despite the distraction of the repositioning, Epoch has still had time to shine at a number of awards ceremonies; most notably winning Silver at the 2008 POPAI awards for their Nestle KitKat Senses counter display. “We won this project at pitch and the display formed a key component of the UK launch activity. It was a highly collaborative process between client, Epoch, above-the-line agency, PR, brand experience and manufacturers.” The campaign won the team a trophy, and saw them appointed to Nestle’s design roster. Still in the FMCG sector, in addition to their work for KitKat, the team also rolled out a major on-pack promotional campaign for Coca-Cola brand Dr Pepper. Incorporating in-store graphics, unique packaging and brand support Epoch were required to work in close collaboration with Coca-Cola’s above-the-line agency. “The promotion redemption rate was eight times the average – the highest ever for a Coca-Cola brand.” This year also saw Epoch appointed as European Integrator Partner for Procter and Gamble’s Western European Oral Health division, which gives it overall responsibility for brand assets – such as Oral-B for example – in more than 53 countries. !/assets/70/03.jpg! Looking ahead, Lucas predicts the next year will see an increased need for focus and clarity. “With Loewy’s support, we are currently expanding and investing in the future health of the business – both on the creative side and in business development. We now know what we do best and that enables us to avoid distractions that are both time consuming and costly.

All new business is important. It's hard to single out one client. We are very proud to see our business investment in digital skills paying off. e.g our digital video work but then again we are also very proud of our long-standing relationship with customers like Specsavers - 12 years of producing beautiful retail magazines for them. 1 Omnicom Niki Webb CEO SPECIALIST 1 2009-03-19T16:50:22Z !/assets/16/01.jpg! Specialist has seen a noticeable change in the amount of digital work it has produced this year. The company has been gradually, expanding into digital content with its offering ranging from producing snappy video content through to the development of social networking communities. MD Niki Webb says, “We don’t just look at what our clients want, we also look at what their customers want – digital content is how the majority of the population now consume media.” It seems that its research has paid off as over 25% of the last 12 months turnover has come from digital billings. “We’re every excited about offering the new proposition to clients. We no longer approach people and offer a customer magazine – we find out about where they want their content, and deliver.” Having taken on more digital work, Specialist has been true to its name and had invested in training up its 32 strong team on the benefits of digital media. “We doubled our digital build team to four people this year, but it’s not just about the technical aspect – most of us are now trained in SEO, web build, pay per click etc. This way, we know our stuff so can work hard to sell the benefits to the clients.” And the training has paid off – Specialist’s digital video work has received national acclaim and recently won eight gongs at the Communicators in Business SW awards. The last year has seen it launch three new internal communications publications for Qinetiq, Total, and Kwik Fit. Other clients include Peugeot, Specsavers, Npower and The Co-operative. Webb believes its ability to know its subject in finite detail stems from its team of expert writers – an area which they are hoping to monetise in the year ahead. “We are in the process of launching www.specialistwriters.com – the website will be a bank of the best specialist writers in the world. We hope that other agencies will come to us for a sneak peak into our little black book.” 10 30 16 London niki.webb@specialistuk.com Niki Webb 0117 925 1696 true false Retained Peugeot's Integrated Content business in pitch against a big field of agencies mainly from London Launched 3 new internal communications publications for major blue chip brands Started producing video and film for clients Won 8 awards at the Communicators in Business SW awards Billed 25% turnover as digital, largely organic growth Broke the £4m turnover mark! 0 true true Omnicom 100 20 30 BS8 1EJ 7 APA PPA CiB 3sixty Mason Zimbler Strange and Dawson Mendip Media Fixel 16 19 mark.cherry@specialistuk.com Mark Cherry 0117 925 1696 0117 925 1696 true Bristol 4000000 false 4100000 true 2009-06-01T16:36:41Z www.specialistuk.com Automotive Finance Mobile technology Retail Internal communications / employee engagement 1969

The Mill – Probably the most awarded and respected post production and visual effects company in the UK. After pitching against some of the most creative agencies in the country we were appointed a few months ago to work across all their digital activity. They’ve got great ambitions for digital with some amazing content so a really exciting new client for us. 1 Stuart Avery MD E3 1 2009-04-20T17:03:58Z !/assets/182/logo.jpg! To say it’s been a busy year for E3 would be underplaying it, and the summary from MD, Stuart Avery is refreshingly honest. “It was a tough start to 2008, we lost two significant accounts due to the economic climate.” For many less experienced less focussed agencies, a £750k gap in revenues could have been the start of the end, but according to Avery, it just made the team roll up their sleeves and turn up the heat: “Both decisions were totally out of our control but how the agency responded to it wasn’t. We’d seen early signs at the end of 2007 that some clients were at risk if the climate got tougher so we started a strategic review of our existing accounts to see where we could add extra value.” !/assets/182/01.jpg! And the strategy paid off; between June and September 2008, E3 saw the biggest upturn in existing client spend in the agency’s history bolstered by Kia, their biggest and longest standing account doubling its digital spend and instigating a complete overhaul of kia.co.uk. “We’ve now seen all of our major clients increase the digital share of their marketing budgets” said Avery. E3 has also bagged a string of significant new business wins this year including CIMA, E.ON, AXA, Siemens, British Gas, Disney, National Trust and several new projects for the COI; including a 12 month project to design a social networking and collaboration platform for the Civil Service with the potential to be rolled out across all 500,000 staff. !/assets/182/02.jpg! “We’re being a lot more strategic when it comes to new business. So, we’re carefully choosing which pitches to go for and where we allocate our resources. The cost of acquiring new business is considerable for every agency so we want to ensure we pick our battles.” One recent highlight for E3 was being appointed to redesign The Mill’s web site, the most awarded and respected post-production and visual effects company in the UK. “After pitching against some of the most creative agencies in the country we were appointed to work across all their digital activity. They’ve got great ambitions for digital with some amazing content so they’re a really exciting new client for us”. The year culminated with Avery and Co-founder Mike Bennett successfully completing a management buyout, regaining a 100% stake. Proof if you need it that Avery and his team are extremely confident about the future. “We turned 2008 around, posted our best ever financial results. We are producing industry leading ROI, and have a fantastically talented team working for some of the most exciting innovative brands, so yes, we can’t wait to see what 2009/10 has in store for us.” 0 50 Cost of travel, especially trains to London 182 Mike, Art Director – Mike joined us in January from Graphico, continuing our investment into the creative team and senior talent.

Seagate In April we won a 5-way pitch to become the leading agency for Seagate Technology’s European marketing strategy. Toshiba In 2008 we were appointed Toshiba’s B2B lead agency for EMEA. Both were significant wins, with fantastic brands. 3 James Trezona MD Mason ZImbler 1 2009-03-25T11:55:12Z !/assets/45/01.jpg! According to James Trezona, Mason Zimbler’s strong POS, promotional and lead-generation campaigns, this year saw it achieve “superb results” with its work on Toshiba’s ‘Bringing innovation to life’ campaign. To reinvigorate the Toshiba brand and launch two new feature sets, MZ created a fresh and original integrated campaign, and through the use of colourful, imaginative and vibrant material it designed its own Toshiba World. The project was deemed a resounding success – in 2008, Toshiba showed a 26.3% growth in product shipments in the UK alone. The campaign also won CNET’s prestigious Technology Marketing Campaign of the Year Award 2008 and helped the agency win their appointment as Toshiba’s lead B2B agency for EMEA. Another key contract for the last year has seen the team working with Microsoft on their ‘Dream Office’ campaign. Microsoft set a target of $600k sales for the campaign as a whole, but the first wave of DM alone, smashed this, generating a revenue pipeline of almost $1.3m. The overall campaign provided triple digit ROI, and qualitative feedback also showed a positive impact on brand perception. Following their success on the ‘Dream Office’ project, Microsoft appointed the team to manage their ‘Journey through life’ campaign, (built entirely in Silverlight). Crucially, almost 15,000 prospects visited the notebook partners solutions offers page. Marketing and Business Development Manager Jimmy Kyle says, “These key campaigns are of a major significance to us – they’ve allowed us to be innovative. They all produced impressive results.” Another exciting development in the last 12 months has seen Mason Zimbler win a five-way pitch to triumph as Seagate Technology’s leading agency, with a remit to implement the brands new European marketing strategy.

CLIENT: Kingston Communications (KC) PROJECTS: Various Though it’s difficult to decide on a single most exciting new client, for sheer breadth and scope of work it has to be KC. This leading B2B provider of telecommunications, hosting and data services offers top-drawer service at bottom-line-friendly prices, and prides itself on first-class facilities with customer service to match. Why do we enjoy working with KC so much? Because as a client, KC has wholeheartedly embraced our holistic approach. So far we have completed projects including integrated DM campaigns, market analysis, branding work, strategic services, newsletters, PR projects, press work and a wealth of digital, including PPC and 1-2-1 marketing. Now, as we begin to understand this interesting, complex client more deeply, we’re finding new ways to help them, enjoying a mutual desire to push marketing boundaries while chasing measurable results. Work on the horizon includes a comprehensive re-brand, new website and a range of targeted marketing activities. With such a wealth of projects completed or underway, the best way to sum up our success with KC is to see what they have to say. Nick Humphreys, Head of Business Development, states: “I recently reviewed all our agencies and found there was no passion, or indeed commitment to an understanding of a return on investment that our marketing budget needed to achieve. I asked Proctors to pitch and they were subsequently successful. In the time we have worked together, they have managed to understand our brand, and more importantly our customers and potential customers. They have enabled us to take a more businesslike and scientific way we do our marketing, maintaining high levels of creativity and ensuring the way we communicate to our audience is clearly understood and on their agenda. Proctors are now becoming an established part of the team, and we look forward to growing the relationship as we know that what we are investing in them is clearly an investment in Kingston and our customers.” 1 Intimis, our award-winning 1-2-1 prospect marketing system.

Users of the service already include The Open University, Samsung and Ebookers. Other projects this year included the launch of Elevate – AXA’s wrap platform for financial advisers – and the launch of Personal Finance for BMW Financial Services, where the team re-designed and re-wrote the literature, creating a look and feel that could be translated across brochures, advertising, direct mail and point of sale media. As a result, Proctor and Stevenson was offered the opportunity to launch both BMW and MINI’s personal finance ranges. The team is also proud of the creation of the CPD Site for The Open University (OU). “Our relationship with the OU started with this initial web project and has resulted in a range of activities.” 0 60 119 Emma Skipp Account Manager Having grown up in South Wales, Emma gained experience in London, but returned to the South West to work in-house at Lloyds TSB.

It’s an innovative tool, designed with advisers and their clients in mind from the outset. AXA Distribution Services commissioned Proctor and Stevenson to create an identity and B2B marketing strategy for this new product. Activity focused on independent financial fdvisors. Working closely with AXA’s in house marketing, PR, legal and compliance departments, an eighteen month plan of activity was developed, spanning the mix from a fully content-managed, rich-media website and events, to e-collateral, film-making right through to branded champagne at Christmas. CLIENT: BMW/MINI Financial Services PROJECT: Personal Finance Launch BMW Financial Services provides a range of finance and insurance products to BMW and MINI drivers in the UK. Our challenge was to redesign and rewrite the suite of literature that sold its entire range, creating a look and feel that could be translated across brochures, advertising, direct mail and point of sale media. The project was completed successfully. As a result, Proctor and Stevenson was offered the opportunity to launch both BMW and MINI’s personal finance ranges. CLIENT: Dell PROJECT: Latitude Launch Our work with Dell has provided us with some of the most challenging, yet exciting, projects we’ve undertaken. Key to it all has been to establish Dell as a major player in the business IT market – one that provides both unfailing quality and exceptional service. A major highlight of this work was the Dell Europe-wide launch of the highly evolved Dell Latitude Notebooks. CLIENT: Effat College (now University), Jeddah, KSA PROJECT: Various – ongoing Effat College is Saudi Arabia’s first private University for women. Proctor and Stevenson has worked closely with Effat to discover, develop and launch its brand from scratch.

Projects so far include an AV movie, prospectuses, websites, even materials for a grand royal banquet. CLIENT: Open University PROJECT: CPD Site The Open University (OU) is the first institution that springs to mind when you think of part-time and distance learning. However, the OU also specialises in Continuing Professional Development (CPD), and needed a website to promote its courses to businesses and individual learners. Our relationship with the OU started with this initial web project and has resulted in a range of activities from DM to the migration of 15 European sites into a consolidated web presence built on a common content management system. CLIENT: Southampton Solent University PROJECT: Brand Development/Student Marketing Following the news that it had achieved University status, Southampton Solent University appointed Proctor and Stevenson to create and develop its identity – on an ultra-tight two-month turnaround. The new identity was applied across a full suite of marketing materials: outdoor, ambient, print and more. Subsequently we’ve worked with Solent on a number of student marketing campaigns, with a particularly successful 1-2-1 letter-to-microsite DM campaign achieving 56% click through and 17% conversion rates. CLIENT: BAA PROJECT: Various – ongoing BAA is the world’s leading airport operating company.

Projects undertaken include printed and electronic sales tools, multimedia CDs, videos, direct mail, exhibitions and web. CLIENT: South West Regional Development Agency PROJECT: Various – ongoing The South West RDA’s stock-in-trade is challenging preconceptions and promoting just how much the region has to offer. And it wanted our help in raising awareness of business in the South West of England. We were asked to focus on skills and learning, the environment, partnerships and innovation, and technology. Our response was to create a stunning hardback book featuring Micheal Eavis, high-flyers Airbus and Aardman, local legend James Dyson and a wealth of other interesting stories and unsung heroes. The book has become a model for further publications highlighting the strength of the creative and technology industries in the South West. Following this activity, the Agency has tasked us with a wide variety of further work, including Annual Reviews, Reports and Accounts, promotional campaign material and, most recently, a brand book that establishes a new look, feel and tone for all South West RDA communications. SIGNIFICANT PROJECTS – PAST FINANCIAL YEAR CLIENT: IGEL PROJECT: Brand strategy, Pan-European DM IGEL is a German organisation with an impressive track record in thin-client technology. It commissioned Proctor and Stevenson to reposition the organisation through a new brand strategy and communications programme to significantly increase its global market share. As well as a new visual identity, we instigated online and offline direct marketing and CRM activity. A recent project saw us deliver a three-stage DM campaign, executed across nine countries… in four different languages. Response rates doubled, while IGEL halved cost per lead. CLIENT: The National Trust PROJECT: Holiday Cottages brochure The National Trust owns and manages over 360 holiday cottages, houses and apartments in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, making it the largest owner and operator of holiday homes in Britain. To promote the cottages, the Trust produces an annual Holiday Cottages brochure that, until 2007, had retained the same design. It appointed Proctor and Stevenson to refresh and update the brochure for 2008 and again for 2009. CLIENT: Avon Tyres PROJECT: Website refresh Avon Tyres produces specialist tyres for motorcycles, cars, 4x4s and commercial vehicles. A local manufacturer with global connections and a pedigree stretching right back to 1904, Avon needed to update its website to increase accessibility, improve user experience and display a seriously broad product range. This initial project has resulted in subsequent commissions including press advertising and poster campaigns on an international scale, databooks for dealers in five languages, and marketing support items from calendars to competition promo materials. CLIENT: Samsung PROJECT: Partner Toolkits Samsung UK’s IT Division provides notebook PCs, displays and printers to businesses through the IT reseller channel. In support of this non-direct distribution model, Samsung contacted Proctor and Stevenson to develop and implement an ongoing integrated channel marketing programme. More recently, we’ve been invited to get involved in a variety of projects outside our initial remit. These include consumer-focused pieces such as brochures for the stunning P-Series laptop range and packaging projects for the camera division. Now the Proctor and Stevenson team is working on an interactive touch screen presentation to bring displays to life. CLIENT: Bristol Alliance PROJECT: Cabot Circus Jobs Cabot Circus is a one million sq ft project that has dramatically redefined the centre of Bristol. High-quality retail and leisure comes to a new upmarket area adjoining Broadmead… bringing with them 4,000 new jobs to fill. As Bristol enjoys low unemployment, the task of recruiting exceptional people for 120 different employers – and a range of roles from ‘Geniuses’ at Apple to talented management for Cinema De Lux – really was a challenge. Proctor and Stevenson developed an over-arching employer brand to build awareness of Cabot Circus, while offering the versatility to fill individual roles. Alongside presence in local media, supporting creative included everything from online ads to bus livery. This brand is evolving to meet Cabot Circus’ ongoing requirements, with a new Skills Centre soon to open in Broadmead. CLIENT: EuroGeographics PROJECT: Website EuroGeographics is the member organisation for all mapping agencies across Europe – it helps different countries’ versions of our Ordnance Survey stay in touch and influence European government. As such, an informative, user-friendly website is a high priority. Proctor and Stevenson has worked with EuroGeographics for five years on projects from its initial branding through to AV movies. We have recently completed a website that acts as a resource for members while promoting both the benefits of membership and EuroGeographics as an organisation. A feature of the new site is user-friendly content management. Thanks to Drupal software, it’s easy to update and manage site content so it remains timely and relevant. CLIENT: Westinghouse Railway Systems Ltd (WRSL) PROJECT: Corporate Profile WRSL is a world leader in railway signalling and control technology, with a history of more than 140 years of innovation in the UK and beyond. Based in the West Country but renowned internationally, they’re also a member of the Invensys group, owner of a number of leading transport engineering firms around the world.

Winning Coca-Cola GB's Coke-Zone (on line loyalty programme) pitch against two of their incumbent global agencies. We now have a coveted place on their digital roster, with retained monthly digital work on Coke Zone as well as digital project work across the Coke brand stable.

For Flourish, this year has been about providing a top rate of ROI for their clients. One particularly strong campaign focusing on ROI was created for Camelot – an integrated campaign called ‘Playtime’ – targeting existing and lapsed online subscribers to The National Lottery. The campaign – spanning emails, banners, viral and direct mail – positioned playing Lottery games as part of a fun, positive lifestyle. The campaign delivered a ROI 12:1 and reactivation rates of 22% (target was 10%). The campaign won the team two Connect Awards (best use of email and best use of data) and was a finalist for both a Revolution and an IMA award. This year also saw Flourish become the heart of a 12 month project for SCOPE – to deliver a new acquisition and communications planning strategy for the national charity. The team’s also been retained by Betfair to develop a multimedia campaign to promote horse racing. The campaign generated the best acquisition results Betfair had ever seen, generated over £200k in incremental revenue from existing customers and won best Offline Campaign at the 2008 Egaming Awards. All this success gave Flourish the confidence to punch a little above their weight to pitch against two incumbent global agencies for the Coca-Cola GB’s Coke-Zone (online loyalty programme). Flourish beat the big boys and now has a coveted place on Coca-Cola’s digital roster with retained monthly digital work on Coke Zone as well as digital project work across the Coke brand stable.

We are in the process of completing phase 1 of the project, which is a piece of qualitative research to gain a greater understanding into the motivations and barriers to Scope’s new fundraising proposition. Phase 2 will take creative executions into testing with existing supporters and cold prospects through online research. This is a significant project, which will fundamentally shift Scope’s fundraising strategy to all audiences and all media platforms. 3) Betfair Flourish developed a multimedia campaign to promote horse racing at Betfair. The ‘Betfair stable’ was developed – a creative platform to launch a range of new products and culminated in a big ‘reveal’ for the main event (the Cheltenham Festival). Our creative solution was integrated across all marketing activity and media, from acquisition, customer marketing and internal communications. Media included press advertising, direct mail, outdoor, viral, emails and web banners. What made this project significant? The campaign generated the best acqusition results Betfair had ever seen, generated over £200k in incremental revenue from existing customers and won best Offline Campaign at the ’08 Egaming Awards. false false 10 25 BS8 1EJ 2 DMA Response One True Digital 43 19 neil.hecquet@flourishdm.co.uk Neil Hecquet 0117 910 0289 0117 910 0280 true Bristol 3076029 true 3404058 true 2009-06-01T08:42:04Z www.flourishdm.co.uk Retail Charity Lotteries and gambling Non alcoholic drinks Financial services 2004

ITN - In September 2008, Strange & Dawson were invited to pitch a communications plan for 2009 for ITN Source, the world’s largest moving footage archive. Pitching against two London based agencies, including the incumbent, we impressed with our response to brief, as well as our creative strength and strategic approach to UK & International sales. By presenting an integrated email strategy, viral concepts, enhanced usability microsites and high end pitch mechanisms we demonstrated an excellent understanding of their business and target audience. 3 Mr Andy Reid MD Strange and Dawson 1 2009-04-15T12:43:28Z The biggest story at Strange & Dawson over the past year is their acquisition by the Harte-Hanks Group in January 2008. The US company, who also own Bristol-based agency Mason Zimbler, are arguably one of the biggest direct marketing companies in the world and have appointed Strange & Dawson to head up its European offering. Strategy since the acquisition has focused on consolidation of the existing client base, to ensure the company are supporting those clients best positioned within their respective markets. One such client is Google. MD Andy Reid says, “We’ve worked closely with Google as their UK marketing agency for over two years. After our successful launch of Adwords to the UK SME market in 2007, we were tasked with creating an acquisition campaign which would both promote the benefits of – and educate the target audience about – Adwords. We broke down some of the negative perceptions around cost, regional targeting and relevance’s to small business.” After the success of the UK campaign in the first quarter of 2008 – where targets were exceeded by 118% – Strange & Dawson became creative guardians of the roll-out which was launched in Europe and then Worldwide. Another key win in the last 12 months has been with ITN.

It makes perfect sense because while Inbox serves more traditional campaigns, Hyperlaunch has a specialism, so by working closer together, we can cover all bases using both brands.” Inbox isn’t afraid to work with big name brands. This year it has taken on several high-profile clients including BlackBerry, Mothercare, 3M and PDSA. This year Inbox launched BlackBerry’s first consumer digital campaign across Western Europe – including online advertising, a campaign website, and partnerships with mobile networks across Europe.

SWRDA CORPORATE WORK AS GOOD SW PROFILE AND REPEAT BUSINESS 2 Chris Denham Chairman Denham Productions 3 2009-04-16T16:00:07Z !/assets/133/01.jpg! Plymouth-based TV company Denham Productions celebrated their 25th birthday in July 2008 and are best known for the Keith Floyd and Rick Stein series produced for the BBC. However, it also provides a range of business communications for organisations such Nissan Europe and Goodyear Dunlop Tyres. This year the team has been awarded the accolade of one of the UK’s top ten factual producers according to Broadcast’s 2009 Annual Survey of the UK’s Independent TV Producers. Denham reached eighth place in the survey that looked at factual output of 42 UK companies, totalling 93.5 hours of content in 2007 and 2008 which included UKTV Food’s Rhodes Across China, Local Food Heroes and Rick Stein’s Mediterranean Escapes for BBC 2. MD Peter Gregory says “This tremendous result is a testament to all the hard work the team here at Denhams has put in over the last two years.” Key productions in the past 12 months include Rhodes across China and Mitch & Matt’s Big Fish. These productions were highly significant as they were the company’s first fully advertiser-funded commissions. Denham is also currently in production with Rick Stein’s Far Eastern Odyssey for BBC 2 and Rhodes Across The Caribbean for UKTV Food. Corporate clients include Nissan, Tesco, The Co-operative, CLIC Sargent and English Heritage, who commissioned Denham’s corporate department to produce a number of education and promotion films for Pendennis Castle in Falmouth. Another key corporate client is SWRDA, who is working with Denhams to produce video content that highlights a number of key investment sites across the South West, which the RDA are helping to regenerate. The films will look at the work achieved to date and outline the South West RDA’s future plans. 6 50 133 Falmouth peter.gregory@denhams.tv Peter Gregory 01752 345444 true false RHODES ACROSS CHINA + MITCH & MATT'S BIG FISH WHICH WERE OUR FIRST FULLY ADVERTISER FUNDED COMMISSIONS 0 true false 10 14 PL7 5BH 5 PACT RTS 60 113 chris.denham@denhams.tv Chris Denham 01752 345444 01752 345444 true Plymouth 2600000 false 2660744 true 2009-06-01T17:10:55Z www.denhams.tv 1983

River Monsters – contributed to 35% of turnover, significant investment from US broadcaster, hugh ratings success bringing new work 2 Harry Marshall & Laura Marshall Creative Director & Managing Director Icon Films 1 2009-04-17T13:05:06Z !/assets/151/01.jpg! This year has seen award-winning Icon Films work on a host of exciting and unusual projects. It cites one of its most important projects from the last year as their new business with a Middle Eastern corporate client, a commission that required them to produce a short corporate film. Having never worked in corporate promos, the Icon team say they were pleased and excited to have had the opportunity to explore this genre and look forward to doing more in the area in the year ahead. Another high-profile commission came from BBC1’s The One Show. Building on past commissions to produce various inserts for the prime time magazine show, the project gave Icon the chance to challenge and develop many of the emerging new talents they have employed over the last year. The team is also proud of their work with Nick Barker on Weird Creatures 3, produced for Animal Planet International. This third series enabled Icon to enhance its reputation as a brand that produces quirky, good looking, and internationally successful programming. Joint MD Laura Marshall adds that another of the team’s memorable moments came this year when US broadcaster Animal Planet International contacted them to say Icon’s series River Monsters had become the channel’s best performing regular prime time telecast, ever. “It is a breakout hit on cable TV in the States and has led on to much more work for us. But, in addition, it has given the Icon brand a substantial boost on both an international and national level.” The show also contributed significantly to Icon’s turnover in the last 12 months, so is a series the team would love to work on again, for more reasons than one. Plans for year ahead will see Icon Films aim to continue to make inspiring, original and profitable films, placing a particular emphasis on the quality production of films that make the world a better place. 11 40 151 laura.m@iconfilms.co.uk Laura Marshall 0117 317 1717 true false Middle Easter corporate client – new relationship opening new genre and bringing potential for future work One Show inserts BBC1 – building on past commissions allowing us to bring on new talent with Icon Films Nick Baker Weird Creatures 3 – Animal Planet Int - series 3 builds the brand for quirky, good looking internationally successful UK series Crocodlile Blues – Animal Planet US and BBC – significant conservation raising awareness of the imminent extinction of this extraordinary animal through environmental pollution false false 10 22 BS6 6TF 5 PACT Icon are committed to working with Bristol talent believing it to be world class – significant relationships with Films @59, Big Squid, Kiss my Pixel, Burges Salmon, Jericho Partners 119 130 steve.a@iconfilms.co.uk Steve Ashworth 0117 317 1717 0117 317 1717 true Bristol 2600000 false 2419000 true 2009-06-05T09:10:32Z www.iconfilms.co.uk High End International Broadcast, Natural History; Travel & Antropology 1990

This year has also seen the team create a variety of effective sites, including the Annie Lennox Official Website, which charted 250,000 unique visitors in its first month. “This involved working closely with Annie Lennox herself and resulted in a highly creative and critically acclaimed website which has won five awards (including a Webby) and was short listed for several more.” The agency was also contracted by the band Scouting For Girls, to create their digital PR campaign which won the Grand Prix at the DADI Awards in October 2008. By re-modelling the perception of the band online, and implementing an extensive PR campaign (radio, TV advertisement and press), Hyperlaunch produced a set of outstanding results: the band’s first E.P. single, It’s Not About You, was the highest charting limited edition E.P. in chart history and the debut album has now sold over 700,000 copies in the UK. The team cites its most significant campaign of the year to be their first piece of work for the BBC. Tasked to develop the online campaign for children’s TV show 3rd & Bird, Hyperlaunch won a five-way pitch for the business and has developed a website aimed at pre-school children and their carers which both engages with and educates the audience. During the first two weeks of launch, the popular site received 10,000 visitors. The next phases will see a big social media and online PR push around the releases of the series DVDs and other key merchandise. 1 50 92 Harriett Owen, Head of Digital PR Digital PR and Social Media is a key growth area for the business and Harriett brings with her a wealth of experience in the area having worked at a number of London agencies on brands such as Adidas, Disney, Unilever and Lynx deodorant. jon.morgan@hyperlaunchdmg.co.uk Jon Morgan 0117 930 8800 true false 1.

This involved working closely with Annie Lennox herself and resulted in a highly creative and critically acclaimed website which won 5 Awards (including a Webby) and was shortlisted for several more. In its first month of launch the site received 250,000 unique visitors. 2. Scouting For Girls Digital PR campaign The campaign won the Grand Prix at the DADI Awards in October 2008. Our online strategy was structured into three distinct parts. The first phase of the campaign was to establish the band within niche music communities and help the band develop a credible reputation within the appropriate taste-making circles. Once these foundations had been extensively laid the second part of our strategy dove-tailed in; this involved us utilising the kudos the band had gained from being associated with these UK taste-maker communities and gradually re-modelling the perception of the band online with a view to taking them to mass-market. Our final strategic phase was to maximise the profile of the band over an extended period of time and ensure the online campaign experienced sufficient long-tail to support the overarching PR campaign (radio, TV advertisement and press). The Results of the campaign were outstanding. Scouting For Girls’ first E.P. single, ‘It's Not About You’ was the highest charting limited edition E.P. in chart history. The band’s first three singles all went into the Top 10 in the UK charts. The Scouting For Girls’ debut album has now sold over 700,000 copies of the album in the UK. The band now has over 47,000 friends, the You Tube channel has seen over 50,000 full channel views, with over 3000 unique subscribers. The ‘She’s So Lovely’ single video has been viewed over 2 million times, whilst the ‘Elvis Ain’t Dead’ single video has been viewed over 1.6million times. A total of 273 online PR placements were secured across 92 individual sites over the duration of the campaign. 3. Borders Social Media and Viral Campaign. This was a word of mouth campaign for the high street retailer which, through a variety of tactics, saw the brand obtain: a social media outreach of 5m users; Numerous brand advocates and affiliates; a significant shift in brand sentiment and share of voice amongst its competitors; over 50,000 voucher downloads and an ROI of £5 earned for every £1 spent on the campaign. false true Digital Marketing Group plc 100 10 32 BD1 2QJ 1 84 82 dean.drew@hyperlaunchdmg.co.uk Dean Drew 0117 930 8800 0117 930 8800 true Bristol 2100000 false 2003921 true 2009-05-29T12:33:49Z www.hyperlaunchdmg.co.uk Entertainment, Publishing, Media, Children's, Youth, Broadcast, Retail, FMCG, Charity 2001

According to John Argent, the last 12 months have produced great results for Studio Six whose strategy has been to expand its position in the communications sector. Part of that strategy has been to appoint Ruth Clarke in a dedicated role as Marketing Manager. Ruth has been working hard on the team’s market position, while also developing a new business strategy, brand and marketing plan. Other key appointments at Studio Six include Phil Cave as Digital Planner, with plans to build on the existing digital competency by supporting client projects with more strategic expertise. Another new appointment is Alex Shallish as Design Director. Clarke says of the company’s development, “The past year has been both rewarding and challenging for us. Our knowledge and expertise of the ‘customer journey’ has helped us develop some fantastic communications projects this year. We have had some great wins and continue to work hard on all our client relationships and their business challenges, with our team continuing to raise our standards of professionalism and service.” Major projects this year have included the creation of a London 2012 Olympics viral game for Lloyds TSB, eCRM Campaigns for AXA, various internal programmes for BP, and a complete overhaul of the Commercial brand (formally Business Banking) for Lloyds TSB Commercial. Clarke says, “The project’s sheer scale tested our efficient project management style.

Results exceeded expectations: Created 369% of targeted visitors and CTR 19% (6% forecast). 2. Axa Protection - eCRM Campaigns. Right from planning to execution stage, we have lead the online/offline integrated comms and proposition development for their 'advisor facing' campaigns. These have enjoyed consistently high response rates with 'click to open rates' of over 15%. An increase of 600% since the beginning of the campaign. 3. BP - Fuels Value Chain internal comms. A great example of how good an internal comms piece can be. Initially, a tricky brief working with weighty content that had to engange with multiple employees across the globe. We creatively pushed the BP Brand boundries, resulting in a compelling, succinct and universally well received piece ("simply devoured by the organisation") that didn't compromise on necessary detail. 4.

Expansion has been the name of the game this year for publishers Venue. Group Editor Dave Higgitt says, “It’s been our strategy to expand beyond Venue and Folio for the last five years, but during the last 12 months, it’s been more necessary and urgent because of the current climate.” While the majority of publications produced by Venue are for the leisure sector, the last 12 months have seen the team win their first public sector pitch through Bristol City Council. Higgit says, “We won the tender for the Arnos Vale Cemetery which has seen us designing and producing trail leaflets and guide books. However, the client was so happy with the work we did, they now want us to re-brand them completely. This not only gives us the chance to expand into the non-urban world, it will also help boost turnover.” The last year also saw the company’s main product, Venue magazine – the South West’s listings and lifestyle weekly title – celebrate its 25th birthday and undergo a full redesign. This coincided with the arrival of new editor Joe Spurgeon, who used the redesign as a chance to stamp his mark on the influential and well-respected title. Sadly, 2008 also signalled the passing of a much loved Venue staffer, Marc Crewe Eulogy, better known as Doc. As a company who treat everyone on the team as part of a family, Doc’s passing had a huge impact on the team which saw them reshuffle and restructure various editorial positions to fill Docs seat. While the team has been working hard to improve their print offering, they’re also fully aware that online is the new offline. “We’ve been concentrating on the print side of our business as it remains overwhelmingly the main revenue driver, but we are fully aware the internet is here to stay and we have huge potential in that area.

They represented our best budgets and most high-profile productions.” The team has also been producing content for the History Channel UK, which included a major six part series, The Last Voices of World War One. Made in collaboration with the Imperial War Museum, this series was described as “the definitive oral history of the war to end all wars,” and drew on Testimony’s collection of 100 filmed interviews with veterans. It was a deeply personal view of the British experience of the most traumatic war in human history. Other projects include a successful six-part series, Their Finest Hour, produced for UKTV History and ITV West which documented life on the Home Front during World War Two.

'Drain the Oceans' for National Geographic Television. We developed new techniques to visualize landscapes using real survey data.

Craig Howarth says that it has been a year of firsts for Bristol-based broadcasters 422 South, having spent the last 12 months working on projects which have broken new ground through the use of emerging animation and visualisation technologies. Their feature documentary, Britain from Above, produced for BBC1, was a real broadcast first as they used real data to depict the dynamic nature of British life through animation. They created 60 sequences in just six weeks and were rewarded for their efforts with an RTS nomination and a Media Innovation Award. Creative Director Andy Davies-Coward says of the project, “The work won praise for being unlike anything seen before. It was both beautiful and scientific. It has raised many enquiries and at least one major commission for similar work from the UK and abroad.” The team also set tongues wagging with their production of Drain the Oceans, produced for National Geographic Television, when they developed new techniques to visualise landscapes using real survey data. As with most broadcasters, the fluctuating nature of the sector, has seen 422 South striving to mitigate the deterioration in the core broadcast market, while also expanding in non-broadcast areas. Coward says, “We had fairly strong business in web development and interactive material back in the boom period and then we, like others, went back to our core business of traditional broadcast when it all went bust. Since then, interactive media has matured a lot, so instead of growing an in-house capability, we are working to extend our partnerships with new media specialists outwards.” 422 South remain positive that the team can continue to maintain their enviable market position. “We will be working to retain a level of activity that keeps our talent team together, working on projects that interest and challenge us.

Quickfire produces high-quality documentary, history and current affairs factual programming, for British and international broadcasters, often with investment from multiple co-production partners. Last year, the company made several high-rating and critically acclaimed programmes such as the Queen’s Coronation: Behind Palace Doors, for Channel 4’s High Society season. MD Mark Fielder says, “In this beautifully-filmed and wry documentary, we revealed the inner tensions in the House of Windsor in the run-up to Elizabeth’s Coronation, arguably the most important royal event of the 20th century. The film won a 2.7 million audience in its 9pm slot.” One key ongoing partnership for Quickfire, comes from Channel 4’s prestigious current affairs series Dispatches. In 2008 the team produced Dispatches What’s in Your Wine? – an investigation into the ingredients which wine-makers are allowed to use in their product, without telling the consumer. This film was one of the highest ratings in the autumn run of the series. Another key commission of the last 12 months was Blackbeard’s Last Stand, produced for Five and National Geographic in the UK, which was also aired as part of WNET’s Secrets of the Dead series in the US. The documentary captured the excitement of a team of underwater archaeologists excavating the wreck of the legendary pirate’s flagship off the North American coast. This year also saw Quickfire produce In Love with Barbara, a 90-minute BBC4 drama, which was critically acclaimed and nominated for a craft BAFTA. As well as their TV work, the Quickfire team has been branching out into corporate videos for clients such as the RNLI.

Best business win/commission Towards the end of last year we were appointed to redesign the branded web pages for Cooperative Financial Services – representing their ‘good with money’ positioning. We have had the opportunity to build on the powerful positioning of the Co-operative movement and all it stands for, made more relevant in our difficult economic times. 1 Stephen Priestnall CEO and Planning Partner Oomph Agency Services 5 2009-04-17T13:54:56Z !/assets/153/01.jpg! It has been a busy year for Cirencester-based Oomph Agency Services who progressed into their third year of trading. The company has seen a significant jump in turnover, which has almost doubled over the last 12 months, due to the extension of a number of key contracts and a host of new clients. One such client is Cotswold Outdoor. Oomph was brought in to promote Cotswold’s technical clothing and equipment. The devised campaign included magazine editorial and adverts working alongside Trail magazine and Ordnance Survey and also saw Oomph build the StayontheEdge microsite that served to build and rebuild relationships between the expert mountaineering audience and Cotswold Outdoor. 2007 saw Oomph appointed as Volunteering Charity WRVS’ lead advertising and branding agency and the last 12 months saw the bulk of the work done in developing a new positioning and branding to help attract more support and interest for the charity. This involved detailed quality and quantity research, Insight research, client workshops and the development of a brand architecture. The team cites its biggest win of the last year as its appointment as Online Media planning and buying agency for Co-operative Financial services. Having worked with the company as an online partner for three years, this project saw the team reduce costs, increase sales and reduce potential fraud. CEO and Project Planner Stephen Priestnall says, “It required a lateral approach to use of online media, new ways of working with affiliates and a more realistic commission model that accurately reflected the time we spent on the account. As a consequence, CFS saw a 20% increase in sales value of every pound budgeted for and spent. This exercise put us in a strong position when the account was formally pitched in November and we were appointed to a two-year contract in December.” 7 50 153 Matt Connors-Jones - Art Director - Expansion of creative team Stuart Richards - Copywriter - Expansion of creative team Louise Bryant-Hunt - Account Manager - New account support Charlotte Summers - Media Planner/Buyer - Development of Media management team Helen Houghton - Media Analyst - Development of Media management team Richard Kean - Interactive Designer - Addition of new skills to creative team stephen@oomphagency.com Stephen Prietnall 01285 883791 true false 1. Cotswold Outdoor – amongst many campaigns we ran in 2008, one of them was a campaign to promote their more technical clothing and equipment Cotswold Outdoor Technical Campaign 2008. We had 2 audiences to address; Three-season hill walkers and student climbers. Through a deal with Trail magazine CO was able to target the 3 season hill walkers by the use of a prominent gatefold insertion that opened the magazine. Through an arrangement with the Ordnance Survey we were able to pastiche their well known map covers and draw the audience in. This ad was supported by editorial in the same publication. We also built the StayontheEdge microsite that served to build and rebuild relationships between the expert mountaineering audience and Cotswold Outdoor. In support of the microsite, a flash banner was created to generate click throughs from the UKC website. The banner outlined the Stay on the Edge competition and invited visitors to find out more by clicking through to the site. To raise awareness from clubs an email was sent out to 150 mountaineering clubs across the UK detailing the competition and introducing the Stay on the Edge website. The campaign was also referenced in Cotswold Outdoor’s regular newsletter to its database. 2. WRVS Brand campaign We were appointed as WRVS lead advertising and branding agency in April 2007 and last year saw the bulk of our work done in developing a new positioning and brand architecture for WRVS. This involved detailed qual and quant research, which we ran with the support of sister Cello cp0mapny Insight research, client workshops and the development of a brand architecture. As WRVS has undertaken a strategic review in the light of a massively changing public and 3rd sector funding environment, we have worked to establish the platform for the WRVS brand to attract more support and interest from a currently unaware audience. This project, now concluding in 2009 with the launch of a new strap line into the retail environment will enable us to run multi-channel advertising and fundraising campaigns, with the aim of providing better and more comprehensive services to older people in communities throughout the UK. 3. CFS online Media planning and buying In April 2008, after 3 years of working with Co-operative Financial services in many forms as an online partner we were appointed as interim online media buying and planning media agency. Over the next 6 months we reduced costs, increased sales and reduced exposure to potential fraud. It required a lateral approach to use of online media, new ways of working with affiliates and a more realistic commission model that accurately reflected the time we spent on the account. As a consequence, CFS saw a 20% increase in sales value of every £budgeted for and spent. This exercise put us in a strong position when the account was formally pitched in November and we were appointed to a 2 year contract in December. 4. New Business win with Good Energy Towards the end of last year we won the redesign of the Good Energy website and have since been working on many areas of their online presence 5. Oomph Life We conceived Oomph Life in 2006 and though it was published in 2007, we see it as an important part of out culture, reflecting our principles, values and approach to business that gives new joiners to Oomph a clear view of what we stand for. Oomph Life records most of the processes you’ll ever need to come across as an Oomph employee but in away that is meant to calm the often hard edges of HR rules. We believe everyone should be accountable for their own performance, with an equal responsibility in Oomph to be responsible for providing an appropriate, fun and engaging working environment and reward. false true Cello Group plc 50 50 14 GL7 1UP 2 We currently work closely withy CX Partners, HOH, SearchPath and True Clarity on a number of web projects.

BBC Trust - really important to the client, really interesting issues, really great client to work with. MEC Global - multiple campaigns on big-ticket feature films, very good media agency with very nice people. 1 Team Rubber is a group consisting of: - Delib (opinion research and public consultation), - Rubber Republic (advertising and online PR using social media) - Rubberductions (film production). Andrew Parkhouse / Chris Quigley Director Team Rubber 1 2009-04-08T13:54:04Z !/assets/68/logo.jpg! Team Rubber’s strategy over the last 12 months has been to strengthen and grow its main businesses – Delib, Rubber Republic and Rubberductions. This has involved a mixture of building up their talent pool, investment in IP, innovation, and a focused new business push. From a talent perspective, Rubber has grown their team to around 35 and to accommodate this rapid growth, has recently acquired bigger offices in Bristol (King Street) and London (Soho). From an IP perspective, it has invested heavily in R&D projects, to ensure they have industry-leading products. MD Chris Quigley says, “Our primary focus has been the development of the “Viral Ad Network” – a niche branded content ad network that connects relevant and fun content to the right people through websites, blogs and other social media, sharing revenue with publishers and site owners. Innovations include the development of “aMap” (short from argument map) which is our first B2C offering.” !/assets/68/01.jpg! As for the new business strategy, the team has been striving to consolidate their position in the UK and encourage growth in additional markets like the US. Quigley says, “Our work in the USA has lead to work with The White House which is obviously an amazing win for us. However we can’t say much more because information on such a high-profile government contract is just a little bit sensitive!” Some projects the team can discuss include their campaign to promote the release of two major blockbuster films – Watchmen and Tropic Thunder – through the use of viral ad campaigns. Closer to home, Rubber has produced a creative animation entitled Change Your World, for Bristol-based National bike charity Sustrans; a film and online PR campaign entitled Harvest for SWRDA; and ‘Opinion Suite’ for Bristol City Council – an open source platform for public consultation. Other key work includes a Europe-wide viral campaign to support JVC’s sponsorship of the European Football Championships and viral seeding work for Lastminute.com. Rubber is also particularly proud of its work for BBC Trust, where they provided a full service public consultation on BBC services for young people - a highlight of the project was when Chris Moyles filled out the survey live on Radio 1. “BBC Trust is a really important client to us – we’ve always worked with local and central government, so this was an interesting expansion for us which we really enjoyed.” !/assets/68/02.jpg! Looking positively towards the future, Team Rubber is hoping to grow its presence in the UK market, while at the same time, is also planning to open an office in the USA to assist their plans for expansion overseas. It says: “While the initial focus of the office will be to introduce Delib’s consultation services to the overseas markets, the office will also act as a base for all of our other divisions.” 5 70 68 London andy@teamrubber.com Andrew Parkhouse 0845 680 0575 true false 'Watchmen' feature film release, 'Tropic Thunder' feature film release - MEC Global/Paramount, pan European seeding and online PR for major feature film releases.

A contract with Expense Reduction Analysts, the world's largest cost management consultancy. Cemented our reputation in the professional service sector. 3 Jennifer Bryant Pearson MD JBP Associates 1 2009-04-15T17:59:01Z !/assets/113/01.jpg! Bristol-based PR agency JBP celebrate their 25th anniversary this year and, while their expertise and position in the sector is well rooted, as for many others in the sector, the last 12 months have been a roller coaster of ups and downs due to the fluctuating economic climate. Director Chris Lawrance said, “Our strategy over the last year has been about a mixture of growth and retention. The current climate means it’s even more important to retain existing clients and give them lots of TLC, but, at the same time, we have grown eight percent over the last year.” Having made a conscious decision three years ago to reduce its hold in certain sectors and increase it in others, JBP now command a respectable presence in Professional Services, Environmental Services and Retail Property sectors. “One of our biggest growth areas has been in retail property,” says Lawrance. “One of our big wins of the last 12 months is Future Inns – a new and rapidly expanding hotel chain.” Other work includes a contract with Expense Reduction Analysts – the world’s largest cost-reduction consultancy. JBP won the contract to raise the company’s profile in the UK as it bids to win greater market share during the economic downturn. JBP won the account in a four-way competitive pitch. The team are also proud to have been the masterminds being the BETS Expo held in Bristol last summer. “This was a real highlight for us as Bristol was the only city in the UK to be short listed for the European Green Capital pledge. Environmental services is a fast emerging successful industry and we were so proud to spearhead and market the major conference for this sector. We are even happier to be running it again this year.” Looking further ahead, Lawrance predicts a year of continued growth and expansion for the agency. “We have announced we are opening a London office in Smith Square. 5 10 communications skills 113 Kathryn Williams, Associate Director, providing support to the two client/business development directors London, West Midlands, Wales chris@jbp.co.uk Chris Lawrance 0117 9073414 true false Organisation of one of the largest environmental conferences - the BETS Expo - in the city.

Re-design of Sorbothane sports insole range and the re-branding /re-design of Neen, a specialist healthcare range of products Both projects were for Mobilis healthcare and in new sectors for us 1 Andrew Stroud MD Design Activity 1 2009-04-15T18:37:30Z !/assets/115/01.jpg! Business strategy has been two fold for the team at Design Activity this year and has seen them focusing on retention of business, teamed with an increased focus on networking opportunities with both existing and potential new clients. MD Andrew Stroud says, “Due to the climate, the sectors we generally work in have shifted slightly. Most of our clients fall within the FMCG sector where budgets, in the main, have been severely affected by the ongoing economic downturn. I suspect (if cold new business was not currently so challenging) if we could add a few public sector clients to our portfolio – where budgets are less restrictive – it would certainly be beneficial to our bottom line!” In an effort to ensure existing clients remain happy, the team has made a concerted effort to deliver top ROI and has employed an additional full-time designer and taken on a student placement to up their output. They are also marketing themselves hard, having launched their new website, www.design-activity.co.uk, in November. Key wins in the last year include the extension of its contract with the well-respected cakes and confectionery brand Elizabeth Shaw. The team also won a three way pitch for the Nivea for Men’s Christmas packaging range for 2009, and has recently won another three-way pitch for a national drink brand. Other significant work includes a brand and packaging redesign for Bassett’s vitamins, which has seen the product outsell its competition, the re-design of Sorbothane sports insole range and the re-branding/re-design of Neen – a range of healthcare products. Contemplating the year ahead, Stroud says, “We hope that in the coming year, we can over deliver on creativity and service in order to retain and expand existing clients. We also want to be more pro-active in networking so we can differentiate our product, gain greater market share and control costs.” 3 50 115 andrew.stroud@design-activity.co.uk andrew stroud 0117 933 9400 true false Nivea for Men 2008 packaging for gift range Re-design of the Bassetts vitamin range in both cases the result has been significantly improved distribution and of more of the range 2008 NFM sales were significantly up on 2007 and early indications for bassetts sales are very good, outperforming their competitive set false false 60 12 BS8 1LT 3 in discussion for membership of the DBA 95 97 pat.starke@design-activity.co.uk Pat Starke as above 0117 933 9400 true Bristol 1500000 true 1500000 true 2009-06-01T17:14:06Z www.design-activity.co.uk fmcg 1994

The single most significant piece of new business for Target was Julian Hodge Bank - a private bank bucking the trend of the banking sector in this economic downturn. Initially brought in to focus on the requirements of the Bank's equity release division, Target's brief widened to include their full range of banking services for b2b and b2c customers. Target now undertakes a full remit of marketing comms, including branding, strategy, advertising and design, literature, direct marketing, and digital. 3 No other current formal affiliations, although The Target Marketing Group originally founded TDA and Target Direct Marketing which subsequently separated from the Group.

Target Marketing MD Colin Spencer says, “With a well-established reputation for creative marketing communications services, including advertising, DM and digital, as well as for its PR division, Target is ideally placed to offer clients an integrated approach to marketing communications.” Sarah Bryars, MD of Target’s public relations division Target PR says, “We have taken on more public sector work, as opportunities have arisen to become more closely involved in some of Gloucestershire’s most significant initiatives, such as Gloucester Works.” The last 12 months has also seen a major refresh of the agency’s corporate identity and at the end of 2008, they launched a re-designed website which has since proved to be an active source of referral for new clients. !/assets/139/01.jpg! Significant projects this year include the launch and ongoing marketing of Gloucester Works – the City Employment and Skills Plan for Gloucester. This initiative is a collaboration between several key agencies working together to deliver jobs and skills in the city, which is funded by the Learning & Skills Council, via its European Social Fund, the South West Regional Development Agency and other partners including JobCentre Plus, the City and County Councils, and Gloucestershire First (which manages the project). Appointed on a three-year contract, Target has devised the marketing strategy and communications plan, implementing an integrated programme including corporate identity, website, design and producing literature and materials, outdoor poster campaign and ongoing, regular PR and media relations. “The project itself is central to the economic and social development of the city’s regeneration,” says Bryars. “We’re proud of the work delivered and the success of the programme in its first six months and it is a great demonstration of Target’s integrated strength.” The team has new business wins including work with Private Bank Julian Hodge.

o2 o2 has been a significant win for True Digital. Not only are o2 a major brand player, they enable us to extend our expertise into the telecommunications industry. Since winning o2 earlier on this year, we are about to embark on our third major project with many more in the pipeline. 1 True Clairty Tim Beckett Managing Director True Digital 1 2009-04-17T11:43:21Z !/assets/148/logo.jpg! From his sunny central offices in Bristol, MD of True Digital Tim Beckett hopes his company is quietly raising the game for digital agencies in the South West. The founding partners of Bristol-based True Digital all boast global agency network experience, having worked with some of the world’s biggest brands. Those credentials, combined with its user-centric, performance-oriented approach are making True Digital irresistible for the likes of O2, Furniture Village, English Heritage and Nike Teamwear. In the past year, True Digital has worked with O2 on two major projects. Director Tim Jones says, “We’ve been helping O2 explore the challenges and potential for the mobile sector. We are about to embark on our third major project for them, with many more in the pipeline.” !/assets/148/01.jpg! Another significant win this year came from The Army. Faced with an increasingly challenging recruitment environment, The Army turned to True to drive footfall into local Army recruitment offices. The agency devised a set of 10 new regional recruitment sites that offer prospective recruits an honest, close-up view of life in the Army from people who are exactly like them. Online advertising on social networking sites like Facebook has proved hugely successful in driving traffic to the regional sites. This year also saw True pick up the Online Retailer of the Year Award at the Fresh Awards for their work on Furniture Village. True’s relationship with FV goes from strength to strength as its extensive optimisation programme continues to help the online store defy the credit crunch. Online traffic is up by over 40% year on year, and an affiliate marketing campaign has proved to be hugely successful. !/assets/148/02.jpg! True also retained the UCAS account to develop phase two of yougo, the exclusive student community website it devised, named, created and built in 2007. The site’s full web 2.0 functionality now supports personalised content, forums, commenting and wikis. Jones says, “The keenness of big commercial partners, including Apple, Orange, Cult and Lonely Planet, to be involved is testament to the strength of its proposition. Other highlights of the last 12 months include True’s online retail credentials landing them the Allied Carpets account. Their Million Futures paper planes site for education innovator Futurelab launched to wide acclaim and was featured in The Times and as Adobe’s Site of the Day. Alongside significant client growth in the last year, True has extended its ambitious young team with a number of new appointments. Anna Jackson adds strength to the agency’s media offer as Digital Media Consultant, while Mark Dearman joined their fast growing creative team as Design Director. The agency has impressive plans for continued growth in the coming year. 5 70 148 Anna Jackson - Digital Media Consultant Anna Jackson, ex business director of online media at Quantum/BLM, joined the True team to strengthen our online media service. With our capabilities in SEO and paid search, email marketing, affiliate marketing, display advertising, online PR and sponsorship strengthened, many of our clients have already embraced the power of online media. Mark Dearman - Design Director Mark Dearman joined the True Digital creative team in 2008 from E3. Mark has been a fantastic addition to the agency bringing exceptional design credentials and sharing our drive to create truly innovative digital solutions for our clients. lindsey.richardson@truedigital.co.uk Lindsey Richardson 07961 714341 true false ALL FIGURES STRICTLY CONFIDENTIAL Furniture Village The brief Furniture Village is a major retail park presence with 36 stores UK-wide and a turnover in 2007/2008 of £210m. They appointed True Digital to develop a multi-channel digital strategy that would help them exploit the potential of digital and accelerate their business growth by: • supporting the customer buying process and driving more qualified leads in store • showcasing all the products available in store (1500+ big name and own brand products) and making the 50 best sellers available to buy online Interpretation The internet has transformed the way we buy big ticket items like furniture. People prefer the convenience of researching online, then expect the option to review and buy in store, or go ahead and buy online. Furniture Village is an aspirational brand. They take pride in the quality of their products (every one carries a 5 year guarantee), the expertise available in store, and the great value and service they offer. Our challenge was to match the in store experience by creating an online store that makes the product the star. It’s easy to browse, easy to find what you are looking for and easy to buy. Activity We created a digital experience that gives the product centre stage. Enlarge and zoom, texture mapping, and online video all enhance the presentation and help the user “feel” the quality. Online buying and care guides encapsulate and replicate the in store expertise. The buying experience is smooth and elegant, with a choice of payment method: Credit card, interest-free credit, cheque and reassurance throughout. Online traffic is maximised by targeting consumers in-channel through natural and paid for search, e-mail, and affiliate marketing. We now hold the top spot on Google for ‘sofas’. We introduced a product database, integrating the web site with core business systems – inventory, offers and pricing - on a daily basis. Orders are directly linked through to the company’s back-office system. The site is therefore easy to update and maintain, with no need for a large back-office team. Results When we were appointed, site traffic averaged 30k visits per month. Visits are now over 300k visits per month. From a standing start, online sales of £3.1m were achieved in year one, growing to £4.5m in 08/09. Whilst real world store traffic is relatively flat, conversions are up 5%, as we drive more qualified buyers into store. There are now over 3000 products on the site, all available to buy online. The site has helped fuel tremendous growth in the business over the last 3 years. FV Online is now the most profitable store, and is set to be the biggest store within the next two years. FV Online was awarded the Fresh Digital award for the best online retailer of 2008. UCAS We designed, built and manage yougo, a student-only community, on behalf of UCAS, the student admissions body. UCAS wanted the site to extend their relationship with students and develop commercial opportunities with brand partners. Revenues generated contribute to keeping admissions fees low for students and institutions. The first iteration of yougo generated more than 200,000 registered members and over 900,000 contributions. True Digital has now finalised a new design for the site to reflect the fast-changing needs of online communities and students. The new approach builds on our initial success while working harder to surface more content for the student. The homepage will become more of a user dashboard from which to view new posts, recent articles, new items in their own network, and see at a glance what their friends are up to. They can personalise their dashboard to reflect their areas of interest by minimising and moving content panels around. The design is clear, modern and easy to use. Content is the focus. Strong use of red amplifies UCAS’s core brand, while a swirling vignette gives its own unique edge. The new site is supported by reinvigorated marketing activity. Army The brief While the main Army Jobs site is proving effective at satisfying curiosity, the Army need to turn that curiosity into real interest online, drive increased footfall into local recruitment offices and secure more commitment to join. Our solution True Digital devised a set of 10 new regional recruitment sites for The Army. Designed to get more potential soldiers and officers into recruitment offices nationwide, the sites offer prospective recruits an honest, close-up view of life in the Army from people exactly like them. Each site contains information on local events, the chance to meet local regiments and opportunities to talk to local soldiers, find out how they came to join the Army and what life is really like for them. There’s also lots of practical information on how to find your local recruitment office, what to expect, what to wear and even whether you should take your mum along! The results The sites are working well to convert interest generated nationally into local enquiries for both the regular Army and TA. True Digital is now planning local media activity to drive more Army prospects to the sites and from there to local events and recruitment offices. FutureLab The brief Futurelab are specialist education innovators. Part government, part private funded, they work with government and commercial organisations to transform the way people learn and interact through technology. In partnership with the Department for Schools, Children and Families, Futurelab are undertaking a major consultation on the future of education in the UK. The consultation includes on and offline surveys and research groups to find out what people want from education in the year 2025. The findings will guide the governments’ long term plans for education. As part of this initiative, Futurelab required an online tool to engage with users, encourage them to explore others’ views on the future of education, and more importantly, express their own. Interpretation Traditional surveys and tools have their place as pure research tools, but we needed to create something that would inspire users to express and share their views and opinions. We wanted to harness the creative and interactive qualities of the web. We thought about how people feel when they think about the future, and what might inspire them to stop and spend some time exploring others views and creating their own. The core idea was based on casting your wishes, hopes and fears into a free, open space that everyone can share. And so Million Futures (www.millionfutures.org) was born. Activity Million Futures is a simple, elegant site, which invites users to interact with a series of questions about the future. The blue sky interface is bright, bold, and playful. Ambient bird and wind noises help transport the user to a more serene, contemplative space where they’ll feel encouraged to express themselves. The feel is one of relaxed calm. Added features and close attention to detail contribute to a sleek, compelling experience: the paper planes have folding sound effects when they open and close, the menu items have animated rollover-states and sound effects too. A series of 6 questions are asked of the user. They can choose which to answer. Users write their answer on an unfolded paper plane in a handwritten font. Submitting their ideas, they see their plane fold and fly to join all the others in orbit. They can explore others’ points of view, search for flight numbers, search by popular keywords, or scroll through different layers of submissions. Frequent users will discover hidden functions to change the direction of the planes, speed them up or slow them down. A built-in profanity filter helps avoid abuse, and users can report inappropriate entries to the editor. Futurelab have a simple admin interface which allows them to access all the submissions, export them to Access or Excel and conduct analysis of the data. Not only does it look great, it collects valuable insight and actionable data. Results After only a quiet word of mouth launch the site has already generated hundreds of submissions, been featured as Adobe’s site of the day and been discussed on a range of sites from econsultancy to Communication Arts false false 30 20 BS1 1PN 1 Account Planning Group CIM 118 128 tim.jones@truedigital.co.uk Tim Jones 0117 9277750 0117 9277750 true Bristol 1494027 true 1480344 true 2009-05-29T12:33:50Z www.truedigital.co.uk True Digital have experience of a wide range of sectors including: - Travel - Education - Financial Services - Youth/ Student - Telecommunications - Public Sector - Retail - Utilities - Automotive - Health 2004

Securing a 12 month contract for exclusive execution of design and artwork projects for Disney Consumer Products 1 Andrew Warne MD Armadillo Marketing 6 2009-04-21T08:26:17Z !/assets/185/01.jpg! Armadillo has had a good year, having secured a 12-month contract for exclusive execution of design and artwork projects for Disney Consumer Products. Over the last year, the company strategy has been based on client retention, maximising business development and new business growth – with a particular focus on digital marketing. MD Andrew Warne says, “We’ve developed our capability further in the digital field to respond to its arrival as a permanent part of all communication plans for clients.” The company has also been busy expanding its core team and has brought in new staff in both the design and digital teams to help them meet the demands of current work and predicted future growth. The defining moment of the year came when Disney Consumer Products appointed Armadillo on a rolling 12 month contract, which included work on film and DVD launches including Camp Rock. To capture the excitement and energy of the exclusive Disney DVD release, the launch mail was bright, bold and exciting, with extras such as the ‘Camp Rock Mixmaster game’ and a competition for Disney users to win signed Camp Rock merchandise. Another significant Disney campaign was the brief to promote the release of Disney-Pixar’s 9th Blu-ray™ and DVD, WALL-E. Armadillo created an engaging launch email, which offered direct consumer links to retailers.

We would like to mention two significant new business wins of the past year. The first is BSM (British School of Motoring) – it’s a significant win because it’s a well-known brand name and we’re delighted to be working together with them to deliver a new website that reflects their new marketing strategy. We’re also providing digital consultancy that will streamline their business processes and internally help BSM to deliver their overall strategy. The second is our ongoing relationship with BHP Information Solutions. Our partnership with the team at BHP continues to grow as we deliver a range of innovative, cutting-edge digital solutions that not only reach a local market, but are soon to branch out to global domains. Our portfolio of websites (with many more sites to be launched over the next few years) is testament of how well we work together; we truly value and respect our ongoing relationship with BHP and regard them very much as part of the Nameless family. 1 n/a Jaya Chakrabarti Managing Director Nameless Creative Digital Agency 1 2009-04-17T14:05:26Z !/assets/154/logo.jpg! As a company that believes “there is no better time to grow than during a recession,” the team at Nameless seem to be more than happy with their growth over the last 12 months. “There is lots of talent out there ripe for recruiting and lots of potential clients looking to make more of online marketing than they might have in the past. We’ve never really marketed ourselves, but this year we’ve decided to be somewhat more proactive rather than letting the business come to us – we’ll see how it turns out.” As part of its growth strategy, 2007 saw Nameless purchase new offices on Bristol’s Broad Street, and 2008 saw it devise a plan to turn the company into the: “best place to work ever. Having let our team plan and design their own space, it looks like we’re heading towards achieving that goal.” !/assets/154/01.jpg! On the project front, the last 12 months has seen Nameless assigned to substantial new contracts with the British School of Motoring, RFU and SES. It is also currently working on top-secret projects for Virgin, BHP, Google and Royal Mail. Nameless is also proud to have been working in close partnership with Bristol’s Colston Hall. To mark the opening of the new foyer, Colston Hall appointed Nameless to revitalise the venue’s main website and help them create an enhanced online presence. The team has also been working with Bristol-based charity The Soil Association to create a bespoke database application (Activity Log) for the national Food for Life Partnership campaign. Another key region client this year has been Great Western Wine, the Bath-based fine wine merchants. This contract saw Nameless develop a significant e-commerce site, that, one month after launch saw a 15% increase in sales and over its Christmas period a rise of 50%. !/assets/154/02.jpg! Nameless cite one of it biggest wins of the last 12 months to be with BHP Information Solutions, resulting in the launch of six websites and another 11 to launch over the next two years. One key project for BHP in partnership with Google and Royal Mail was the design and development of a freshly fried marketing resource site called the Marketing Donut (www.marketingdonut.co.uk), and according to the team is: “Set to be the number one online marketing resource centre for small and medium enterprises throughout the UK.” This year has also seen Nameless awarded a place on NESTA’s Creative Business Mentor Network – an opportunity for 20 of the UK’s top-growing creative companies to benefit from one-to-one mentoring with some of the most successful business people from the creative sector. “We wait with bated breath for our mentor to arrive at Nameless HQ to give us some expert advice so that we can continue to build on Nameless’ success, propelling the company to infinity and beyond...” 7 Managing Growth 70 154 Leroy Kirby – New senior developer Marianna Yates – Assistant project manager As a small company with no one leaving us for the past few years, new hires are all significant. They are new members of the Nameless family. liz@nameless.co.uk Liz Brewer, Creative Account Director 0117 927 3113 true false 1. Our flourishing and happy partnership with BHP Information Solutions has continued to grow over the past two years, resulting in the launch of 6 websites, another 11 to launch over the next two years, plus 2 new significant sites for a major global bank. Not forgetting the design and development of a soon-to-be-launched marketing resource site called the Marketing Donut (www.marketingdonut.co.uk), which has sponsorship backing from Google and Royal Mail and is set to be the number one online marketing resource centre for small and medium enterprises throughout the UK. 2. The development of a bespoke CMS and designs for a business advice site for a major bank that we cannot name. 3. Creating not one, but two email affiliate marketing campaigns for Dyson, complete with online banners and everything! 4. Developing our first significant and hugely successful ecommerce site for Great Western Wine, the Bath-based fine wine merchants. Who in just one month after launch saw a staggering 15% increase in sales and over their Christmas period an awesome rise of 50%. 5. We were tickled a greeny shade of pink when we were appointed to design and build the website and create the bespoke database application (Activity Log) for the national Food for Life Partnership campaign led by the Soil Association. The Food for Life Partnership campaign is the culmination of many years of campaigning for good quality food for children in schools. Our bespoke Activity Log enables beneficiaries to be recorded and provides an audit that has been so successful the Soil Association has secured another large chunk of funding. It has been predicted that 3,600 schools will have signed up to the initiative by 2011. Here’s to saving the planet one carrot at a time. 6. Gloster, an award winning global company specialising in high-end outdoor furniture, tasked us to design an online experience that reflected the luxury of the Gloster brand. Our response was to create a user-friendly Flash website using the latest ActionScript 3.0. With accessibility and web standards at the heart of our work we knew the benefit of this technology meant search engines would be able to index the pages and read the content, plus visitors that follow the URL links would be provided with the correct piece of content within the Flash movie, therefore stamping out the previous problems associated with Flash-based websites. The underlying HTML with full content also provides a level of accessibility usually impossible in Flash alone. The results have been astonishing. The site attracts literally millions of people from across the globe, all browsing their product range, searching for international retailers, downloading the latest brochure and browsing the interactive catalogue – and all this in five different languages! 7. We’re also really excited about the work we’ve produced with the innovation team at Cancer Research UK - creating beautiful ‘user-centric’ compelling designs that communicates exciting new funding concepts. We’re also looking forward to launching a new science-related website that engages kids to talk about science; developing bespoke projects for Virgin; plus rolling out the fantastic ‘Find your Talent’ initiative pioneered by the Creativity Culture and Education agency.

A four part series about eh History of Agriculture for BBC4 called, Mud, Sweat and Tractors. It get great press coverage and a good audience and it led to new business with the BBC in a similar genre. 2 None David Parker MD Available Light Productions 1 2009-04-19T07:30:43Z !/assets/178/01.jpg! The last 12 months has seen Available Light make a move away from the independent television sector (ITV, Channel Five, and Channel 4) to concentrate on areas it feels have a growing, rather than collapsing, market share. This strategy has seen it consolidate its work with the BBC and expand into production for a range of new digital channels, including Teachers TV and a new channel it helped to launch – Social Care TV. These changes of direction have seen Available Light produce two strong series for the BBC, one in specialist factual – an area it says it has “had problems breaking into in the past.” The series, called Shooting the War, used home movie archives from Britain and Germany to tell the story of how ordinary people took film footage in extraordinary times. As the company’s strategy has developed, so has the core team, which has seen ALP employ a greater range of experienced producer/directors over the last 12 months. The team cites its most significant productions of the last year as two major series produced for the BBC. Firstly, there was Mud Sweat and Tractors – a four-part series about the story of agriculture – and the three-part Shooting the War. It is also proud of the major body of work it has produced for its new digital station Social Care TV. The interactive arm of the company – called ALP Interactive – has been working hard to expand its digital and interactive offering which has seen it work on projects that include a new debating application website for BBC Scotland called Skara Brae. This e-learning resource, which was commissioned by BBC Scotland, features several activities that encourage and help the children to think about how the Neolithic people of Skara Brae might have lived. 10 50 178 dparker@availablelight.tv David Parker 01179 084433 true false We had two series for BBC2 with a new presenter, Johnny Kingdom.

Advanced Insulation = re branding, literature, web sites, exhibtion. Sanctuary Housing = Report & Accounts, literature, exhibition & display. 1 Paul Carter MD Mosaique Design Consultants 5 2009-04-15T12:34:06Z !/assets/98/01.jpg! “The last 12 months have been quite difficult for a great many design agencies and, with the exception of web solutions, clients have been looking to cut marketing budgets wherever they can,” says Mosaique’s MD Peter Lloyd. “However, Mosaique has concentrated its efforts on the retention of as many clients as possible, offering real cost-down reductions on print management and taking the time to discuss a client’s overall marketing spend in depth and look for savings and best value.” In the past, Mosaique’s portfolio has leaned towards the automotive industry and the niche area of after-sales marketing support for Land Rover, Bentley, Citroen and Toyota. However, as much of this work has shrunk, due to the economic climate, the last year has seen the company’s new business approaches become more strategic as they hunt for ring-fenced marketing budgets in more recession proof sectors. But as Lloyd points out, “Happily, we have always been very strong in the Housing Association and Care sectors and this has helped.” Mosaique’s new media business has grown this year and it has been able to enhance this side of the business by bringing in new programming staff. Another highlight has been the implementation of a new company newsletter which is sent to over 1,000 regional companies. Named Coping Strategies, it attempts to outline and case study how its work has helped clients cope during the recession by using considered, objective marketing support materials aimed directly at their market. Recent wins for the agency include two new pharmaceutical clients, for whom Mosaique will create new identities, guidelines, product literature, websites, exhibition and display and full marketing support.

Robson Dowry initiated a growth plan at the beginning of last year, building on its strong track record and sector experience. Ian Robson, Joint Managing and Design Director, says, “The economic climate has, to some extent, put this on hold, although we are continuing to progress a carefully targeted new business development campaign.” The last year has also seen it redefine its position bringing a greater focus to their ‘remarkable concept’. “We believe our approach is remarkable – our insights, informed intuition, market and audience understanding. We believe brands today, and in the future, will need to be remarkable to survive. Audiences of all types are generally more demanding, more knowledgeable and more media savvy. In this environment, merely conforming to expected market conventions, giving an audience what we think they will expect, or simply playing it safe will not be an option.” As part of its repositioning, it launched a website, www.robsondowry.co.uk and a newsletter ‘Visually Speaking’, aimed at keeping clients and others updated. !/assets/97/01.jpg! The team cite its most significant project of the year as the production of a new website for long-term client Matthew Clark. The project, which was combined with a re-branding exercise, was driven by a Message Mapping workshop involving a wide range of stakeholders from management, marketing and sales. This provided key drivers and aspirations of the whole company and at the same time gave them ‘buy-in at all levels’. During the last year, Robson Dowry has also been working with the Bank of England to create a new visual identity and design framework strategy. The project has involved a strategic review of the Bank’s communications and the introduction of a new logo. Other areas worked on include a new corporate font, colour palette and a new design structure and framework for application across all of the bank’s communications. The project has also involved the redesign of the Bank’s core publications and an ongoing redesign of its print and online communications, both external and internal. The team are also working to design and implement new stationery and forms and re-design literature, merchandise and promotional advertising for the Bank of England Museum. Other key work has included re-branding one of the South West’s most famous brands, Blackthorn Cider, and a major repositioning of Bristol’s Science City which has seen the team working on a new brand identity, launch and website. The company is also a preferred supplier for the South West RDA, for whom it has been involved in branding and communications for many innovative regional projects such as Wave Hub – a ground-breaking renewable energy project that aims to create the UK’s first offshore facility for the demonstration and proving of the operation of arrays of wave energy generation devices. 1 50 97 No key staff hires in past year ian@robsondowry.co.uk Ian Robson 0117 9466669 true false Bank of England, ongoing new visual identity and implementation across all print and online communications, high profile client Blackthorn rebrand, major repositioning Science City Bristol brand identity/launch/website, doing something for Bristol false false 70 12 BS8 1SE 3 Design Business Association (DBA) Chartered Society of Designers (CSD) Design Management Institute (DMI) Institute of Directors (IOD) British Design Innovation INK copywriters DB&Co Positive New Media 25 89 jessica@robsondowry.co.uk Jessica Moule 0117 9466669 0117 9466669 true Bristol 1100000 false 1241441 true 2009-06-01T17:17:02Z www.robsondowry.co.uk Food and drink Public Sector Professional services Environment & sustainability 1976

Abbey International is the offshore banking arm of Abbey National plc, operating out of Jersey, one of the world’s best regulated offshore locations. A change in business strategy meant a significant shift in the bank’s target audience, towards a more upmarket and international audience. Following a four way pitch, we were appointed to develop the differentiated service proposition and communications, aligning the International identity to the new positioning and widening its appeal to international high net worth audiences. Naming strategy and literature hierarchy was explored and this was then the basis of a suite of literature and communications. Winning the work with Abbey International led to our appointment to the Abbey Roster, following which we pitched and won a project to help Abbey UK develop their premium proposition and creative positioning, developing guidelines for a suite of literature. We continue to work within Abbey International and Abbey UK as they launch and develop new products and services. 1 Felicty Kelly MD Duttons Design 1 2009-04-07T14:09:17Z !/assets/64/logo.jpg! Brand communications agency Duttons has a 20-year track record in the industry, but completed an MBO a year ago, changing their name from Dutton Merrifield. Now run by an experienced team of directors, Felicity Kelly, Mike Spurr and Steve Davies, business is going from strength to strength despite the economic downturn. The team cite its main area of expertise as consumer branding, focussing on companies with large customer bases. Director Felicity Kelly says, “Although we’re very strong in the telecoms, retail and financial service sectors, we look to maintain a broad spread of clients across sectors, a strategy vindicated by the pummelling received by financial services in the last 12 months.” Current strategy is to maintain a steady growth, but, as Kelly adds, “without sacrificing quality of life, our happy working environment and quality output. We’re more than happy with our solid first year of operation and are looking to maintain this.” !/assets/64/01.jpg! The recession has forced it to tighten its belts, but has been lucky to avoid staff losses and is looking to new client wins such as B&Q, International Paint, Campingaz, Ecotricity and INQ to grow. Kellys adds, “We see ourselves as a national agency with strong roots in the South West. As such, we make sure that we have a good mix of clients from growing local businesses to established international blue chips.” Current clients include 3, Abbey, B&Q, Sky, The CarbonNeutral Company, Akzo Nobel and Coleman. Current South West clients include Stroud and Swindon, Welsh Assembly Government, NOS, Beverage Brands, Scoff, Beyond the Bean and Brunel healthcare. The team cite its most significant win of the last 12 months to be Abbey International, the off-shore banking arm of Abbey National plc. A change in business strategy meant a significant shift in the bank’s target audience, towards a more upmarket and international audience. Following a four-way pitch, Duttons was appointed to develop the differentiated service proposition and communications, aligning the International identity to the new positioning and widening its appeal to international high net worth audiences. Winning the work with Abbey International led to Duttons’ appointment to the Abbey roster, following which they pitched and won a project to help Abbey UK develop its premium proposition and creative positioning. !/assets/64/02.jpg! Another element of the Duttons’ offering is their enviable location. Based in the countryside in a converted barn complex, it operates from the middle of rolling countryside but are only 20 minutes away from Bristol Airport. “Clients like the point of difference and it fits in well with our environmental ethos.” This commitment to green issues recently helped Duttons win a contract with Ecotricity. 5 50 64 NA felicityk@duttonsdesign.com Felicity Kelly 01275 850905 true false The most significant projects in the last year have been: the European brand review and evolution for outdoor company Coleman; the positioning and rebranding work for national charity NOS, and the rebranding of The CarbonNeutral Company. Coleman Coleman is the world’s only truly global outdoor equipment company. We’ve been helping to build the Coleman brand presence within the UK and throughout Europe, creating differentiated offers within their portfolio for leading brands such as Coleman, Exponent, Campingaz, and most recently Sevylor. A clear positioning, personality and tone of voice has been defined and articulated for each brand, accompanied by fresh visual treatments and messaging. These identities are being rolled out in stages across all communications. NOS The National Osteoporosis Society is the UK’s only national charity dedicated to helping people suffering from osteoporosis. Although highly regarded for its factual and medical materials and member support, its brand had limited appeal for public fund raising and member acquisition. Duttons was commissioned to broaden the appeal of the brand and align communications to the NOS strategy. We helped to define the brand positioning and evolve a more contemporary look and feel, without jeopardising the charity’s professional credibility or alienating current members. We have been working with the NOS to roll out the new look and approach across all communications and touch points. The CarbonNeutral Company The CarbonNeutral Company is the world’s leading carbon offset and climate consulting business.

Business Link Awareness Campaign Think Business Link! Brandon Hill managed a high profile campaign supporting Business Link combining TV and radio advertising with online activity and a hard hitting media relations campaign. Funded by the South West of England Regional Development Agency, the campaign focused on the start-up and small business sector.

The approach showcased Business Link in action, demonstrating how it can help ‘real’ businesses achieve their ambitions.

Gills Cruises - multi million pound press advertiser who put their increasingly significant online ad spend through us 1 None Daniel Fallon MD Search Star 6 2009-03-19T16:07:33Z !/assets/14/logo.jpg! “We’re not a fancy full service digital agency and don’t have world domination as a corporate goal. We only do search advertising. We like to keep our costs low, our fees fair and our client relationships good and personal,” says MD Daniel Fallon. “However, what we do have is a great team who can deliver our clients measurable results – something fundamental to any successful business in any economic climate.” Established in 2005 as an agency 100% dedicated to search advertising, Search Star has two client managers, Nettie Wells and Clare Leon-Brown, plus an admin and finance team of one. Search Star’s results speak for themselves. Year on year the team have added more satisfied customers to their client list and have done so purely through referral from existing clients and contacts. “Business is OK right now – businesses now realise that search has to be a fundamental part of their advertising and our clients see Search Star as a cost effective partner that delivers results” !/assets/14/01.jpg! Search Star’s clients typically spend between £1,000 and £100,000 a month on search advertising but what they all have in common, says Fallon, is they don’t spend money for fun – they want to see results. This is why Search Star’s strategy is focused on quantifiable ROI for all clients “We make their money go further by being 100% search advertising specialists. We work for companies for whom it’s critical that the search is done well – their businesses depend on web sales.” Fallon is proud of the company’s ability to justify each and every penny of their customers’ spend, “We give our clients reports each day, week and month on how campaigns are going. We make the maths simple so the finance directors keep paying the bills. Our objective is to always produce more sales for less money so the clients stay happy.” Dan’s straight talking business philosophy comes from 15 years as a media buyer and eight years in search advertising including a long stint at MediaCom, the UK largest media agency. “In our experience, promises made by search agencies massively exceed delivery. Clients are getting up to five telesales calls a day hard, so they are rightly cynical as to who will deliver. We do deliver and if we don’t think we can achieve the results the client is after, we won’t take on the project.” !/assets/14/02.jpg! When it comes to key wins, after naming clients such as Bristol Airport, The Chartered Institute of Marketing, Imagine Ireland and Gills Cruises, Fallon says, “We don’t trumpet the shininess of our clients – they are not the FTSE blue chips but the mid-sized firms in all industries that care about results and understand the numbers. We don’t want to tie our clients up in contracts – if it doesn’t work they can and should stop or go elsewhere.

Deusche Bahn - Deutsche Bahn (DB) is Europe's largest railway company running a super-efficient and modern network that makes us long suffering British train travellers green with envy. DB's UK subsidiary (DB Bahn Sales) has appointed 3Sixty as their first digital marketing agency, with a remit to promote train travel to Europe within 18-26 year olds in London and the South East. The appointment also cements our growing specialism in the travel and tourism sector. 3Sixty are planning a campaign based on the thought “There’s More To Travel Than Just A Destination - Where’s Your Sense of Adventure?”. The work will invite the target audience to consider train travel as an exciting alternative to flying and to associate European train travel with Deutsche Bahn. The inspiration for the campaign came from the number of music festivals that now exist around Europe and the fun that can be had by travelling to them by train with your friends. The online campaign will include the development of a unique Deutsche Bahn microsite where users can enter competitions to win tickets to festivals in Europe and receive vouchers for travel on the Deutsche Bahn network. Aisha Saharan, Marketing Manager, Deutsche Bahn UK Sales comments: “Our brief is to start a dialogue with young people around the UK and demonstrate the fun that is to be had in travelling by train through Europe. 3Sixty’s creative approach and expertise in the travel and tourist sector made it an appropriate digital agency partner to help us achieve our online marketing objectives.” 1 n/a Chris Thurling Managing Director 3Sixty Internet 1 2009-03-23T17:18:18Z !/assets/33/logo.jpg! Having undergone an advanced period of expansion in late 2007 and early 2008, the last 12 months has seen this digital agency bedding in a range of newly won clients and new members of staff. MD Chris Thurling says, “It’s been a bit of a funny year economy wise as many of the sectors we work in, such as travel and financial, have suffered so right now we are in stick rather than twist mode. But we have ambitious plans for growth once the economy begins to pick up.” “We’re currently developing our planning department which is focused on the principles of account planning applied to a digital landscape and how this can transform our clients’ brands/bottom lines through strategy and creative development.” This has led to the appointment of Laura Fletcher as Head of Planning and Jo Weston as Junior Planner. The team is also setting up a South West arm of the Account Planning Group. !/assets/33/01.jpg! On the client front, the last year has been busy for both the creative and development teams, seeing them work on contracts for Deutsche Bahn, Bristol International Airport and ITV. ITV chose 3Sixty to develop the first off-air implementation of its new identity; a radically improved intranet. The site is a multimedia showcase featuring clips from ITV’s latest offerings. Thurling adds, “It’s got unlimited growth potential – we’ve made it exceptionally scalable, so new content can be added daily without affecting the integrity of the design.” This year has also seen the team working with Bristol Airport to develop the company’s website. The project has resulted in a clean, uncluttered and unmistakably modern site which offers greater usability. Since the conception of the initial website, 3Sixty has continued to work with Bristol Airport across its digital marketing, including redesigning their car parks booking site, creating an online loyalty scheme, building an online customer database, setting up email marketing to promote flights, optimising Pay Per Click campaigns, as well as search marketing. !/assets/33/02.jpg! The team cites its most significant win of the year to be Deutsche Bahn’s UK subsidiary, DB Bahn Sales, which appointed 3Sixty as its first digital marketing agency, to promote train travel to Europe within 18-26 year olds in the South East. The cements 3Sixty’s growing specialism in the travel and tourism sector. Commenting on the future, Thurling says, “Digital is becoming, if it’s not already, the most important element in the marketing mix and our plan is to take a strategic approach to encourage our clients to make the most of digital budgets. We anticipate that soon we will be out winning work against many of the big integrated agencies – surely it makes sense if you’re cutting back on other forms of advertising, to choose an agency who really knows the digital sector inside out.” 13 60 33 Kate Stokes, Project Manager –Whereas before we were reliant on Account Management (like in above the line advertising), we realise that digital requires project management with greater attention to detail, technical understanding, quality control and efficiency. Jo Weston, Junior Planner – 3Sixty are currently developing our planning department which is focused on the principles of account planning applied to a digital landscape and how this can transform our clients brands/bottom lines through strategy and creative development. Andrew Arnott and Martina Welander, Junior Developers – there is increasing demand from clients for more backend work that has more functionality, is more complex and to a higher standard than ever before so we have doubled our development department and are training our developers in various programming languages as well as content management systems development (Sitecore). chris@3sixty.co.uk Chris Thurling 01179077360 true false ITV Intranet – ITV chose us to develop the first off-air implementation of their new identity; a radically improved intranet, to be used by an estimated 7,000 ITV employees every day… The challenge: For 3Sixty, the challenge was two-fold. First, creatively, we had to find a way to breathe online life into the new identity developed by the commercial arm of the BBC, Red Bee Media. Not easy, since we started with not much more than a logo and typeface. Second, we had to give a pretty thorough work-out to our well honed collaborative and political skills. Because – we’re sure our client will forgive us for saying – this was a project where everybody had a point of view about what the finished site should be like. Let’s just say that multiple stakeholder requirements had to be satisfied. Why it was a significant project for us: -It’s very user-friendly - The old site had grown organically and was, frankly, a bit of a mess. Our radical overhaul of the navigation has made a big difference in terms of helping people find exactly what they need, exactly when they need it. -There’s always something good on - As well as looking great, the new site is a multimedia showcase featuring clips from ITV’s latest offerings. -It’s got unlimited growth potential - From day one, it’s a huge site; but we’ve made it exceptionally scaleable, so new content can be added daily without affecting the integrity of the design. Client quote: “This is a priority project for us because the success of our rebrand depends on getting our employees on board. We chose 3Sixty on the basis of their breadth and depth of experience, and they have delivered an intranet which we believe will be a real communication asset for ITV”. Penny Lawson, Head of Internal Communications, ITV Renault F1 website – Our website for the Renault F1 Team provided some powerful clues about how any business, in whatever sector, can use high quality web design and advanced technology to leave the competition trailing several laps behind. Why it was a significant project for us: -It looks great - We think so, anyway. But the point is, it shows how good we are at translating an offline brand into an on-line one, using all our “traditional” design and marketing skills. -It’s action-packed - Remember when websites were little more than on-line brochures? This one was more like a mini TV station - with regularly updated interviews with drivers, photo-galleries and lots of other dynamic multimedia content. -It has big screen impact - Our use of larger screen 1024 x 768 resolution gave the design room to breathe, and makes the entire site seem uncluttered and even more pleasurable to get around. Client quote: “We are absolutely delighted with the work delivered by 3Sixty and Studio 6. Their teams managed to capture the innovative, high-tech and daring values which are the essence of the Renault F1 motor racing team”. Jon Woods,Head of Graphics, Renault F1 Team. Bristol Airport - When Bristol International Airport first came to us, they had a problem: a website which, in terms of user-friendliness, was stuck on the runway. Naturally, we were delighted to help. But, as the project unfolded, we quickly became aware of a much bigger opportunity; a chance to deploy our full range of digital marketing skills and services to help move a client’s business onto an altogether higher plane. (Ouch.) The Challenge: In terms of visually reflecting Bristol International Airport’s brand values, the existing website didn’t get off the ground. And, even more worryingly, it clearly wasn’t doing its job. User data showed visitors to the site struggling to find the information they needed – and, in large numbers, cutting their visit short and never returning. Not good for business. And our initial review revealed another massive problem: the original designers had allowed the client virtually no facility to manage and update the site themselves – crucially important, when a sudden change in the weather can affect dozens of flights, and thousands of people’s travel plans. Why it was a significant project for us: -The first thing we did was to put the client back in control, by installing a good content management system, (Sitecore, since you ask). Then we went to work on the site itself: -New look and feel - nothing flashy needed here, but, for a brand like Bristol International Airport, a clean, uncluttered and unmistakably modern feel was the basic minimum requirement; and we hope you agree that we delivered it. -Greater usability - the crux of the matter, and by far the most demanding part of the project.

Mears plc. Montpellier were commissioned last year to complete a 3-month project which, if successful, would allow the consultancy to tender competitively for a full retained contract. So successful was the project that Montpellier was appointed directly to commence on a retained basis and on significantly greater fee/bill of work 3 Montpellier Interactive Montpellier Creative Stackpole & Associates Boston USA Guy Woodcock CELO Montpellier Marketing Communications Group 5 2009-03-27T15:43:45Z Montpellier cite its biggest win of the year as a three-month project with Mears which resulted in it being appointed on a retained basis. The company has also been working with Cheltenham Racecourse to help build the brand in the minds of women. Among many aspects of the campaign, Montpellier created a bespoke brand identity for Ladies Day, and project managed the Ladies Day shopping weekend, A total of 23 retailers put on pre-Festival Ladies Day events and 500 women were engaged in pre-Festival Ladies Day activity. In 2008 Ladies Day was a complete ticket sell-out. 3 50 53 Jamie Townsend - Senior Developer, Montpellier Interactive.

London guy@montpelliergroup.com Guy Woodcock 07774211163 true false BACKGROUND Our brief from Cheltenham Racecourse was to provide a public relations platform on which to build the Cheltenham racing brand in the minds of new target audiences and potential ambassadors, especially women. Cheltenham Racecourse also wanted to build on and foster improved community relations locally and further afield. Part of this strategy was to provide a mechanism for local retailers to overcome the traditional trading dips experienced throughout The Festival, which in previous years had caused retailers to harbour negative feelings towards the iconic sporting event. The core target audience identified was women aged 25-55 in the AB category. Shoppers with a disposable income for retailers! Montpellier’s strategy was to engage retailers in the Ladies Day concept from the outset. Not only did we want to raise awareness of Ladies Day itself among consumers and retailers, to encourage them to attend, we also wanted to ensure retailers were able to benefit financially from this extra addition to The Festival’s Portfolio. Montpellier devised a high profile strategy looking at activity in the town centre which was aimed at both independent retailers and the larger brands. PLANNING AND IMPLEMENTATION Montpellier first created a bespoke brand identity for Ladies Day, which incorporated its own logo and colour scheme. The branding was to be used across all mediums, PR, web and advertising. Next in the programme, Montpellier set about brainstorming initiatives which we could help retailers benefit from The Festival. The programme was introduced to the retailers at a high profile reception hosted at Cheltenham’s Hotel Du Vin in October 07. The objective was to motivate retailers to run their own in-store promotion branded to Ladies Day. Montpellier was responsible for project managing the Ladies Day shopping weekend, which took place three weeks prior to The Festival. Numerous fashion shows, including a flagship catwalk event at Cavendish House (part of the House of Fraser Group), discount promotions and special events took place across the town, designed to encourage women to purchase their Ladies Day outfits in the town centre. In addition, a retailer discount voucher for the festival was produced, which retailers were able to distribute to their customers. To help raise awareness of Ladies Day, Montpellier secured a specially appointed sponsorship deal with Peugeot UK who supplied on loan a new 4007 4WD Peugeot which was given to the Ladies Day ambassador Jacqui O’Neill (wife of top trainer Jonjo O’Neill.) The vehicle, adorned in Ladies Day livery, was located at key static sites across Cheltenham during the period running up to The Festival. Other elements to the Ladies Day project (pre-Festival) included a town centre presence of advertising lamp-post pennants, plus an internet seeding campaign on social networking sites including Facebook. Montpellier also conceived and organised the Ladies Day fashion awards plus the distribution of free souvenir Polaroid photographs to award entrants. EVALUATION A sceptical client was won over and convinced by the case made by Montpellier, which has catapulted Cheltenham into an extended Festival benefiting from additional income streams. Over 20 retailers (equating to over 40% of high end spend) hosted in-store events during the weekend while others including Marks & Spencers, hosted their own Ladies Day events in the week immediately prior to The Festival. The weekend itself was kicked off by a large event in House of Fraser, attended by over 150 women in the stipulated 22 – 55 AB category. Fashion shows and makeovers were put on by staff. This was one of the biggest after-hours events which Cavendish House had ever hosted and, according to the general manager, the most successful with till takings in excess of £15k in the two hour period! Cheltenham Racecourse also had a presence at the evening and sold some 30 Festival tickets. Winston’s Wish, the official Ladies Day Charity, was also in attendance and ran the raffle. For the duration of the weekend, a Ladies Day Road Show also took place in The Regent Arcade, the main shopping precinct. The road show was supported by live radio broadcasts, ticket sales and branded balloons to boost awareness. Following the Ladies Day Shopping Weekend, many retailers reported significant increases in sales over the two day period. The Per Una outlet at Cheltenham’s M&S – a key stakeholder - was for the second year the retail chain’s biggest earner nationwide. On Ladies Day itself, an impressive 122 women entered The Fashion Awards within the hour long judging period. RELATION TO OJBECTIVES o A total of 23 retailers put on pre-Festival Ladies Day events o Approximately 500 women were engaged in pre-Festival Ladies Day activity through attendance of events o Ladies Day was a complete ticket sell-out this year o After only two years, Ladies Day at The Festival attracted more than 125 women to enter the fashion awards.

This year has seen us really move forward.” Clients worked with this year include high-profile names such as Sky, Babcock and Exor.
