Ramblings from the folk at ICON!

Despite the recession, we’ve been kept pretty busy with both existing as well as new clients and now, with the worst of the recession seemingly behind us – at least that’s what we’d like to believe – we’ve just won website pitches for four new clients.

So, on behalf of all the team, we’d like to welcome Wiltshire company Linpac Environmental, Lydney based Whitecroft Essentials Ltd, the Gloucestershire Association of Parish and Town Councils and Gloucestershire Music.

In addition, we’re about to launch new websites for the Gloucester Heritage Urban Regeneration Company (GHURC), Cheltenham Borough Council for its Conference Cheltenham and London insurance brokers John Ansell & Partners for its extreme sports insurance with all sites powered by our own OTPS v5.0 content management system.

And if you don’t think that’s being busy, we’re also currently working with existing clients on several new web and brochure projects due for completion later in the year.

We’ve always believed in a refreshingly straightforward approach and the principle that every client is our only client. We take the view that by understanding their business, core values, key objectives and their marketplace we are better able to deliver effective, dynamic and targeted communications whether in print or online.

New client Whitecroft Essentials has just appointed us to design and build a new interactive website on their behalf, and today that process got underway by a visit to their manufacturing plant and head office near Lydney.

Our creative media designer Ben Howard and account director Geoffrey Ainsworth were given an extensive factory tour to help give them valuable insight into the client’s products.

Whitecroft Essentials is a long established business supplying a wide range of stationery, haberdashery and craft products to the trade.

We’ve been working closely with the Workforce Development Group of the Gloucestershire Care Sector for some time and have recently produced their latest Newsletter. And we’ve also redesigned their website to give it a new look and make it easier to navigate.
