Elaborate Marketing’s activities

WHAT WAS THE OUTCOME?

The filming and photography facility in Bristol, South West England is the only purpose built kitchen set and separate prep kitchen in the region. Elaborate promoted the facility across the food and photography communities throughout the South West. Both the pre and post show messaging created a real buzz and conversation across the region, via traditional and social networks. It drove new enquiries about the facilities, enabling the client to discuss new video projects with current network contacts, research the needs of clients and further develop its sales pipeline. Elaborate managed the whole event from theme conception, to liasing with the guests and packing down the whole event at the end. We loved working with the Mendip Media team to deliver this truly scrumptious event!

“Nicola combines marketing creativity, organisational skills and hard work to make her unique marketing company, Elaborate, a truly inspirational partner to work with. She has developed business for Mendip Media for several years and recently organised a brilliant launch event for our new filming & photography studio in Bristol. It was a great piece of theatre underpinned by the nuts and bolts of a rigorously planned event. I recommend Elaborate for event planning and all the marketing that goes with making an event successful.” Nicky Robertson, Managing Director, Mendip Media
