Roland Dransfield has been appointed to handle PR for the famous, original boutique fitness studio from LA; Barry’s Bootcamp, at its new Manchester home.

As Martin Luther King Day – an American holiday celebrating the life of legendary social activist Martin Luther King - passes for another year, a quote that he was famous for (no, not ‘I have a dream’), is cropping up across social media at a rate of knots. 

Over the past 12 months we’ve seen a massive shift in brand advertising. Priorities have changed from selling in the key USPs of the company – whether it’s the precision of a Gillette razor blade or the quality of Nike trainers – to championing societal issues.

Whilst November is normally the key month to push your Christmas messaging and campaigns, some brands took the time to highlight important issues, orchestrate change and make people laugh.

Merry Christmas!!

The Roland Dransfield team has been celebrating this week after being named PR & Marketing Agency of the Year at the City of Manchester Business Awards.

The realisation that someone is buying their followers and likes usually results in an immediate unfollow. It’s disingenuous and highlights a company’s failings of not being able to hold and retain honest customers.

Fallen behind with your Christmas marketing? It happens to the best of us, but it’s important to ensure that even if you’ve failed to plan, you still have some fail-safe ways to show your customers some love this season.

Last week we were absolutely delighted to attend the MPA Awards, where we scooped up two incredible wins.

Roland Dransfield has added four new recruits to its staff roster and moved into brand new offices to house its growing team.
