			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It’s that time of year again where the days are getting shorter and we are all trying to fit things in before the year is out. Everyone is looking forward to winding down and relaxing ready for a busy new year.</p>
<p>For everyone who frequently reads our blogs you may remember when I became the newest member of bbs; four months ago. It doesn’t seem five minutes ago since I was meeting the rest of the team and being shown to my desk, now I’m part of the bbs family just like everyone else. I have really enjoyed meeting our clients and welcoming them into our office. I have learnt so much in such a short space of time from everyone here at bbs such as meeting room management, working at events and overall good customer service skills. I am extremely looking forward to starting new projects in the New Year and expanding my knowledge further.</p>
<p>To end a hard working year we are showing our creativeness by having a Christmas breakfast whilst swapping presents, smiling and revealing who won our famous Come Lunch With Us which I can announce was Helen.  Anyway I must dash but I would like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year and remember time really does fly when you’re having fun.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This week it has been all about <a href="http://www.stockport-business-expo.co.uk/">Stockport Business Expo</a>. The exhibition was yesterday, organised by <a href="http://innov8-conferences.co.uk/">Innov8 Conferences</a> and was held at Edgeley Park Stadium, home to the The Hatters.</p>
<p>It was the biggest B2B event in Stockport this year and BBS are proud to say we were a part of it&#8230;in more ways than one!</p>
<p>Some of the BBS team were working on behalf of Innov8 Conferences and were responsible for showing exhibitors to their stands, registering the visitors on their arrival and managing the seminars which were held throughout the day.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.brighter-business.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/photo.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-1004" title="BBS Stand" src="http://www.brighter-business.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/photo-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a> BBS were also exhibitors, as we had our very own stand. We have worked at several exhibitions on behalf as clients and never as BBS, so this was our time to shine!</p>
<p>The room was filled with exhibitors and visitors and the atmosphere was energetic. It was great to see exhibitors and visitors interact with one another and we met lots of great people and some familiar faces too.</p>
<p>Time to follow up with them all now&#8230;.</p>
<p>The  Stockport Expo was a great success and so much so, that the event is taking place next year on 21<sup>st</sup> November, so put it in your diary now!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>To stand out, you need to be creative. At BBS, many of our clients come to us for creative marketing solutions.</p>
<p>We’re currently working on many different marketing and communications projects, and each one of them is different – we don’t work on a one size fits all basis, but understand all businesses are unique and need bespoke marketing approaches.</p>
<p>Amongst the solutions we offer include newsletter design. I bet most of you have unsubscribed to e-newsletters or sent them straight to the trash. That’s why we make sure time and effort is put into establishing the right audience and creating e-newsletters which are worth reading! The right e-newsletter is cost effective and quick, they can reach audiences you otherwise wouldn’t be able to, and can magnify your brand identity and display your awareness and position in relevant Industry sectors. When sending our e-newsletters we also review the response rate to ensure we are continuously improving. E-newsletters are a very popular email marketing tool amongst our clients.</p>
<p>Many of our clients have benefited from our creative marketing techniques – give us a call if this sounds like something you could benefit from &#8211; 01706 824229</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As some of you may have heard, a few of the team (including our youngest members!) were out of the office last week, working on NAPF Conference and Exhibition 2012.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.brighter-business.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/photo-4.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-992" title="photo 4" src="http://www.brighter-business.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/photo-4-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a>The conference is one of the most important dates in the diary for anybody involved in the pensions Industry, and especially this year with all the talk on auto-enrolment, the conference was bigger than ever. The event attracts around 1500 industry professionals and around 500 exhibitors.</p>
<p>We have built a strong relationship with NAPF over 8 years and always feel part of an extended team. They trust us to get the job done and do it to an extremely high standard.</p>
<p>This year’s conference and exhibition was held at the ACC Liverpool, and BBS provided staff for all 3 days. This included delegate and exhibitor registration which is often the first point of contact for attendees. As well as handing out delegate/exhibitor packs we are also expected to handle any queries as best we can. We also provide badge scanner staff and microphone handlers for the auditorium. As well as this, BBS provide room managers who are responsible for briefing the speakers and chairman and ensuring they are prepared for the sessions. Our BBS team leader, interviewed and recruited Liverpool University Events Management students, created a timetable for individual event personnel, and ensured the staffing ran smoothly throughout the 3 days.</p>
<p>NAPF is something we look forward to year on year. Lots of hard work and commitment has meant the NAPF team treat us as one of their own and use our event management personnel every year to represent them.</p>
<p>If your company requires event management services no matter how big or small, speak to us at BBS and you can trust us to be reliable, professional and ultimately become an extension of your own team.</p>

Unfortunately, I haven’t come back from a holiday in Spain, but we have however been working on a telemarketing project which involves contacting people all over the world.</p>
<p>We have been working with <a href="http://http://www.reedexpo.com/">Reed Exhibitions</a> for the past 5 years, in particularly on the <a href="http://www.eibtm.com/page.cfm/Link=1/t=m/goSection=1">EIBTM </a>exhibition which they organise. EIBTM is the leading global event for the meetings, incentives, events and business travel industry, held in Barcelona.</p>
<p>One aspect of the telemarketing campaign is to contact Hosted Buyers and encourage them to complete their appointment preferences and destination presentations.  These calls are to contacts all over the world.</p>
<p>The second aspect to the campaign is to contact UK conference and event buyers to encourage their registration for the EIBTM Hosted Buyer Programme.</p>
<p>Although we do a lot of varied telemarketing projects, this particular project is one of our favourites. If you walked into our office, you would hear anything from Guten Tag to Buon giorno!</p>
