  • Twitter. This social media channel is invaluable for businesses looking to develop relationships. Don’t use it to try and push your services, instead share the kind of information your clients are looking for, ask questions and join in the conversations.
  • Interactive games. A great game pulls people in, will get them talking. More than that, a really fun and addictive game will get shared between friends and then far and wide via social media. Apps and other interactive games can get your business name onto the screens and into the minds of prospective clients far more effectively than traditional marketing materials.
  • Targeted email marketing. Inboxes are overloaded these days, so you need to use your data to focus carefully, but automated email campaigns can be a fantastic way of starting conversations with people you want to do business with. Share something useful instead of launching into sales mode, have a clear call to action that encourages a response, and start talking.
  • Linkedin groups. Linkedin is a good talking shop for B2B firms. Joining relevant groups, and commenting on the forums can strike up some very interesting conversations, which in turn can lead to business further down the line. Even if the person you’re talking to isn’t in the market for your products or services, they will refer you if the relationship feels right.
  • Facebook. It’s not for every business, but sharing more of your behind-the-scenes content starts conversations and raises your profile. Our Three Peaks Challenge, for example, has got people talking – showing your human side and sharing interesting news makes business sense.

Our stand at the 2013 Bauma Show in Munich, showcased Skyjack’s new machines and livery and has led to many substantial orders being confirmed.

    The Bauma show was a great success, and with more European and international events on the horizon, it’s shaping up to be a busy year for Event on the world stage.

Enable were sponsoring the Cheddar Darts Open and needed a host of high quality branded material at very short notice. Our large wall panels, T-shirts and other graphics scored highly, and the event held at the Cheddar Rugby Club was really successful.
