What a night ✨

Last night we had the pleasure of attending the Midlands Marketing Awards, celebrating the incredible talent, creativity and hard work across the region.

We were proud to be shortlisted in two categories, and while we didn't take home a trophy this time, simply being recognised alongside so many brilliant businesses and individuals was a huge achievement for us 🏆

A big thank you to our amazing team, our clients and everyone who continues to support Shakespeare Media. We're proud of how far we've come and even more excited for what's ahead!

A curiously good night at the theatre for our lovely Hayley 🎭

After working on the promotion of The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night Time, Hayley headed to the Birmingham Rep for the show’s press night.

It’s no mystery that seeing a campaign come to life on stage is always a special moment 💙

Meet the people behind Shakespeare Media: the planners, buyers, strategists and now, slightly unwilling stars of our social media 🎬

Some of you may already know us, but Alice thought she’d reintroduce the team to anyone new around here… using the most flattering photos and videos she could find, obviously 👀 (sorry guys 😅)

Choosing the right advertising platforms isn’t about picking what’s popular. It’s about understanding what you’re selling, who you need to reach and what role the campaign needs to play.

Is your advertising capturing existing demand or creating it? Is the purchase urgent or considered? And can your business realistically serve the audience you’re targeting?

Our latest blog explores the questions that should shape your media plan before any budget is committed. Click the link below for part one of our guide 👇

HELLOOOO!

Mrs Doubtfire has hit the streets of Birmingham, and help is well and truly on the way to Birmingham Hippodrome 🤩

There’s nothing we love more than seeing a media plan undergo its own Mrs Doubtfire-style transformation, going from an idea on a plan to a larger-than-life D96!

Last week, Vicki, Alice and Isobel headed to Soho House & Co in White City for a brilliant talk from Sam Thompson, Jamie Laing and Ben Hacker, covering all things content and the importance of building a personal brand.

One message that really stuck with us was the importance of taking risks. If you don’t give something a go, you’ll never know whether it could have worked. Sometimes, you just have to trust your gut and take the leap!

We all left buzzing with ideas for our clients and our own social channels, and we can’t wait to put some of them into action 👀
