Talking heads grab Attention

We are constantly looking for ways to fulfil the old Marketing Maxim AIDA  - and particuarly the Attention bit.

I just wanted to share with you some pretty cool video that we have put onto The Enterprise Agency website. Real life clients explaining what they think about the agency really does grab your attention and builds trust through these live testimonials.

Thanks to Alan for shooting the video and thanks to The Enterprise Agency for believing in our idea. Much more video on our websites to come I think.

Activity Day at Camp Hill

Our activity afternoon at Camp Hill was absolutely fantastic.

Starting off with an assault course, which was said to take 15 minutes but we blitzed in 13, we then got in the mood for the other fun activities and challenges to come.

The team task conundrum tested our thinking as a group and was quite tricky. We had to get from one highpoint to the next without touching the floor and only using 2 planks which were too short to bridge the gaps. Quite a tester but we all figured it out… after much thought and effort, but it was a good laugh.

Then we went to “downed plane” and received instructions to build an A-frame using ropes, pullies and 3 huge stakes of wood which would be used to transport our marooned bosses over a moat. The A-frame was an A-frame of sorts, sturdy and strong but alas not high enough to hold the ropes which our bosses would be suspended from. Needless to say, they got a soaking!

At the archery range our guide Eric showed us how to hold, aim and fire arrows and the miniature robin hood contest began. The coveted first place rested on the fate of one arrow and Graham pulled off a cracking “bullseye” taking the number one spot and finishing the competition.

Blasting round a course in the Gemini Liberator off road buggies was the best way to end the day, and blast we did!

In conclusion - good weather, fine company and a great time was had by all. Bring on our next Camp Hill afternoon!

Get Google's Local Search to Work for You

Most Google searches that include a region or city in the search (or even searches that are likely to be looking for local business, such as a search for plumber or pizza) will display a list of 10 local listings, along with a map.

This appears above the organic listings, so getting listed in this area can result in a sharp increase in traffic.

How Do I Get Listed?

You can submit your business directly to Google Maps using the Google Local Business Center. They will then verify your business by either calling you with a special PIN number, or sending you a postcard with the PIN on it.

Once you've received the PIN, enter it into your Local Business Center to claim your listing. If you're verifying by phone, be sure that you have access to the same phone number that's in your Google Maps listing.
