It’s really happening! Team Stratique are running for charity!! www.stratique.com

It’s really happening!

Last week, in a moment of madness, the idea of doing a fun run was batted around. It all got a bit out of hand and we ended up agreeing to do 10k run! This seemed reasonable enough until the idea of a half marathon cropped up! Somehow, due to the competitive nature of our office we decided we would do one … no no … lets do both! So here we are in our first week of training. We have just set up our just giving page www.justgiving.com/stratique as we are raising money for Midlands Air Ambulance and signed up for our 10k run in Kingsbury water park on the 27th November 2011. With new running trainers brought we (Andy, Mel, Charlotte and Graham) are starting to do a mile run a week, and will increase it by half a mile each week! What a plan!

We have built up a really good relationship with Sofia at the Midlands Air Ambulance so they were our first choice charity when it came to deciding who to run for. The fundraising aim is to raise £1250, as it costs this much to buy a helmet for the Helicopter Pilots who work tirelessly saving lives on a daily basis

The Midlands Air Ambulance is the only Charity responsible for funding and operating three Air Ambulances serving the communities of Gloucestershire, Herefordshire, Shropshire, Staffordshire, Worcestershire and the West Midlands. This constitutes the largest air ambulance operating region in the UK. 

What is not widely known is that Midlands Air Ambulance receives no Government or National Lottery funding. £6 million is needed each year to keep its three Air Ambulances operational which is donated entirely by the public and local businesses.

Wish us luck, come and support us on the day and, if possible please give generously to this great cause.  Hopefully you will never need the Air Ambulance but, it's good to know they are on hand if you ever need them! www.justgiving.com/stratique.>

Another reason for using Stratique for your 3d design needs is that once you have finalised your design, we can manufacture your prototype thanks to our partnership with our sister company Parts And Tooling, which is also based in Tamworth, In the heart of the midlands.

Brand Identity and logo design to boost your Midlands business.

What does your logo design and brand identity say about your business?

Your logo design is your trust mark. It represents what your brand identity stands for. If your logo design is outdated or tired, this is how your business brand identity will be perceived.

Stratique MarketingDesign and PR helps companies in the Midlands and around the UK develop stronger and more engaging brand identity and logo designs. We help businesses develop a stronger sense of what makes them unique and convey this through the design and tagline development process. Unlike many graphic designers, because of our deep rooted background in brand management, we understand company branding / brand identity development plus product branding / logo design and the resulting logo design will become your trusted mark, to be used throughout all of your design and marketing communications differentiating you in a crowded marketplace.

Branding is extremely important to your companies profile and the logo can be the main driver of this. If you look at some of the most successful companies like Coca Cola, Nike and Ford, their logos have become synonymous with their company and brand, so its important for your company to have a well designed logo. 

Please call 0845 226 3095 for a no obligation logo design or brand identity design quotation

Are You Hoping that Business Picks up in 2011?

Are you also hoping to grow in 2011?

 

Firstly well done for weathering the storm of the worse recession in living memory. Many companies have withdrawn to the extent where they have had to close down.

 

If you are hoping things will get better then you are in the majority!  But things have changed.  Market conditions are tougher than ever, and everyone has to work smarter to land new business.

 

There is a small minority of successful companies who have moved from being product and service led to market driven. These companies aren't hoping for change, they are actively pushing their boundaries and conducting regular systemised awareness and relationship building on a weekly basis. 

 

Many of our clients had a design agency,a marketing consultant or a web designer,  but they were not driving in more leads, more customers and converting more sales. 

 

If you want to discuss how Stratique can drive more low-cost sales leads for your company then please call today.  Our low-cost sales lead generation packages include weekly telemarketing, direct mail follow-ups, email warm-ups, and telephone appointment setting and include monthly board reporting.   A powerful professional solution.
