Our new headquarters in America’s Blue Ridge Mountains in Virginia
We are pleased to announce that our geographic location has changed! In the summer of 2020 – our headquarters moved from East London’s Hackney in the United Kingdom to the Blue Ridge Mountains of America’s Virginia. Our consultancy is now based near Charlottesville.
Since re-locating, we’ve added on new clients in America, supporting various organizations and individuals with promotional services. We won headlines, including a front cover story on a trade industry magazine for a client based in New York City! We developed promotional strategy, tactics and campaigns for a few music-related clients, approaching the traditional media and social media landscape.
While we haven’t had time to shout-out a lot about our successes, know that we are hard at work for our clients!
We’ve also added collaborators – in New York City, Florida, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, France and London in the United Kingdom.
