We are honoured to have played a part in the design for the DBI & Plymouth City Bus livery celebrating Black History Month. Photos included in the design are people of significance in Plymouth’s Black History up to the present day. We worked closely with the client to facilitate their vision and this new bus was unveiled last week. Look out for it around Plymouth.

Oh what fun it is to ride on Plymouth Citybus at Christmas 🧑‍🎄

We worked with Plymouth Citybus to come up with a fun and engaging campaign to raise awareness of their special ticket offers and prices over the Christmas period.

Using a mixture of digital marketing mixed with traditional advertising, we created a series of character illustrations that we could utilise across multiple applications.

The paid social media campaign resulted in:

Over 7,000 link clicks
Over 220,000 accounts reached
Over 1+ million impressions

Next up in our ‘HEY’ series is Frances Daykin from Plymouth Play Scrapstore 🎨

Plymouth Scrapstore CIC is an organisation saving items and materials from landfill and using them to promote craft and creativity while engaging with the local community. They run workshops and events and promote making play and craft that’s accessible to all. We spoke to Fran, who joined the Scrapstore in August last year.

We chat about what the Scrapstore do, how to loosen up and embrace playtime and meeting new people.

Driving applications for bus drivers 🚍

We were asked by Go Cornwall to create a recruitment campaign to increase the numbers of applications for bus drivers across Cornwall.

Various creative options were developed but a bright fun approach that was engaging, clear and simple was chosen to be rolled out across the media mix.

The paid advertising campaign was so successful that various elements of the marketing mix were switched off to slow the responses. Read the full case study here: https://bit.ly/475V2aC

Next up in our 'HEY' series is something a little different! To celebrate 35 years of bluestone360 we interviewed Managing Director Steve Kyffin.

bluestone360 was founded by Steve Kyffin and Mervyn Orchard in 1988. After being away in big cities for quite some time, they both found themselves back in Cornwall and joined forces.

We chat about the creative industry, the highs and lows of running an agency, advice for people looking to set up their own business, and much more.

Next up in our 'HEY' series is the fantastic Owen Finnie from Pollenize CIC.

Pollenize CIC was founded by born and bred Plymouthians (and best friends) Matthew Elmes and Owen Finnie in 2018. They finished university and didn't want to stay in London and climb the corporate ladder, so they moved back to Plymouth.

We chat about how Pollenize came about, the highs and lows of setting up a CIC, and what we can do to help pollination and local ecosystems.

We threw a little party to celebrate 35 years of bluestone360 🥳️

A lot has changed since the beginning, but much has also remained the same. From the days of working with just a piece of paper and pencil, to today where we’re constantly evolving with the ever changing digital world, we’ve always remained equally passionate about the fundamentals of branding.

Thank you to everyone who’s supported us along the way. Here’s to the next 35 years!

Wifinity didn’t just want a brand refresh, but they really wanted to define who they were, what they stand for, and how they’re different from other companies.

They wanted to communicate clearly with their target audience how their service(s) benefits them. With such a wide range of potential clients they needed a brand that connected with them all.
