New addition to PNDesign
I have been told off by one of our clients (Mandie at Enterprise Inns plc - hope you're reading!),
for not being clearer about our new service offering after teaming up with Vivienne
Tregidga - a PR and Marketing specialist.
When I met with Matthew Robinson (BID Manager for Beeston) I
realised that in addition to design and print, the BID initiative was going to need
strong PR and Marketing. I called
Viv and asked if she would like to join PNDesign in this venture late last
year.
V iv had just delivered a Strategic Communications Strategy for
The Safer Nottinghamshire Board in the County Council. This included devising
three campaigns and rolling out the first. Her campaign 'Remember! Lock up when you go out' succeeded
in reducing opportunistic burglary by 66% in the north of Nottinghamshire where
there is a particular crime hot spot. These
results have won Viv much acclaim in the County Council and she certainly is a valuable addition to our team.

Competition News
You may recall that
for our Christmas card last year we did something completely different
- have you seen the video yet? Its on YouTube - just search for
'pndesign' and have a laugh on us!
For our Christmas newsletter
we ran a simple competition to encourage people to read the newsletter
and watch the video. It certainly worked, with a 400% increase in hits
to our website and several hundred viewings of the video.
Steve Gregg, Sales and Marketing Manager of Project MC was the lucky winner of the
competition so Viv and I popped up to Mansfield to meet him. Steve said: "How
delightful to be presented with a bottle of Moet champagne, thank you.
I look forward to seeing the next edition of your newsletter, so please
put me on the circulation list." We're happy to oblige!

NEBA Website Live at Last!
The
new website for NEBA (Nottinghamshire Education Business Alliance) has
finally gone live after several months in production. This is the largest site that PNDesign have managed to-date,
and we are very pleased with the outcome - as is the client.
Louise Hawkings, NEBA's Marketing & Communications Officer said: "PNDesign
provided us with an excellent design service during our website
re-development, creating a fresh and dynamic look for the site,
reflective of the NEBA brand. I would have no hesitation in
recommending PNDesign to anyone looking for a professional marketing
service."
PNDesign
successfully tendered for the design of the new site after pitching
against 4 other agencies. Teaming up with another local agency,
WebFuel, provided the winning combination of design, brand management
and software implementation which has given the site a completely new
look and feel, complete with a CMS based news feed, calendar and many
other resources for users to access.
