August Newsletter 2020

Our summer newsletter is a little later than planned but there is a very good reason for it…

We have been on a rollercoaster ride of our own over the past couple of months.

However, it’s given us the opportunity to sit back and reflect on our first year in business and we’ve got lots of great news to share with you!

Happy reading…

Meet Olivia

We have taken on our first full time member of staff!

When lockdown commenced, we were in a very strange position as a business.

We were still fairly busy (fortunately), however, my part time member of staff was on furlough, the work was coming in and I needed support – quickly.

If you know me personally, you will recognise this wonderful lady.

When times were tough, she stepped in to support me in every way that she could, and now she’s on the team permanently and doing a fantastic job.

From designing brochures and marketing content, to running social media profiles, editing videos and practically designing and re-branding our new website – Olivia has stepped in at the perfect time and she has been the perfect support system (both professionally and personally) during such a difficult period.

Olivia is as passionate about Flamingo Marketing Strategies as I am, putting in the hours for our clients to get them great results, despite it being one of the most challenging times any business owner has had to face.

Gingie strikes back

Branding Birmingham

On National Cat day last year I wrote a blog about my neighbours cat, Ginger…

… this blog was called ‘how to win your ideal client’ and you can read it here.

Ironically, it actually won me a new client!

This year I was encouraged by a few friends and family to write another one. I swear Ginger is going to become the face of Flamingo if he gets any more popular… the fame and glory will be going to his round fluffy head that’s for sure.

So here it is, my latest blog to celebrate International Cat Day (August 8th 2020).

Our new website is just around the corner

We are on the final countdown to switching over to our brand new site… we cannot wait to share it with you!

If you remember my blog I posted at the start of lockdown called ‘Why it’s even more important to keep on marketing through Covid-19’, the introduction of a new site will come as no surprise to you.

I talked a lot in this blog about making use of the time we have been given back during the pandemic.

We have been very fortunate to still have work to do over these past few months, but we have also had quieter days when clients have been away or distracted with other projects – so we decided to do something productive with this time, and update our website.

We are just a few days off pressing the button to publish it to the world, but we are so pleased with the progress we have made in a short space of time.

Our new site is crisp, clean, informative and full of AMAZING marketing advice to help you all going forward, not to mention our brand new download called ‘8 ways to get your marketing back on track and start generating leads’ which you will be able to access on the home page.

We can’t wait to share it with you – keep your eyes peeled…

As always, we are here to help.

Here at Flamingo Marketing Strategies we work with B2B & B2C companies who want an ongoing strategy, and for us to become their virtual marketing team.

We offer a free consultation call to talk through your business objectives and see how we can help you.
