Marketing Soc schools award
We recently had the pleasure of hosting a team from the Marketing Society schools competition. Alva Academy were assigned to us and tasked with using us to help them develop a radio script and a presentation explaining quite why their new product idea was so good.
Yvonne, David and I took to the barge a couple of Fridays ago to aid and assist. They have a cracking product idea. Really well thought through. And whereas we’d imagined it might take hours to help refine and shape, they were actually sharp as darts, got our meagre points really quickly and came up with a lovely idea for a radio script before we broke for lunch. A disconcerting example to set for copywriter David.
Yvonne and I set sail for Stirling last week to watch their final presentation to the judges plus playing of the ad they’d recorded at a local radio station. And they did brilliantly. I am fiercely and unreasonably proud of them - given that we had almost nothing to do with their efforts. So I eagerly await the judges’ verdict on awards night!
