Doodle Dates for your Diary
There are a few dates we thought we'd share with you in case you felt the creative urge to help with Lancashire's Longest Doodle and at the same time raise some money for Pendleside Hospice. On the 25th March Function Factory, an East Lancs based theatre company (http://www.functionfactorytheatre.co.uk) will be taking the doodle to the ACE Centre in Nelson. Pendleside Hospice are also taking the Doodle out to various local supermarkets. It will be at Tesco in Burnley on the 5th and 6th March, Asda in Colne on the 12th and 13th March and at Asda in Burnley on the 21st and 22nd May. Come along and show your support and have a doodle at the same time.

The PR Masterclass was a great success!
Our PR masterclass went down a storm, but don't take our word for it, here's what the punters had to say....
"This course has been invaluable in helping to focus on the branding of our business. All sections were really interesting and I've received some fantastic inside tips. I would highly recommend this course to anyone interested in PR and marketing in general" Sara Williams, Anvic Developments
"Extremely well put together and informative course. Would highly recommend to anyone wishing to learn more about PR and Media relations" Victoria Evans, Uno Coffee
"Great course really enjoyed it and will now put it to use" Tracey Taylforth, Hillendale Landrover
"Social Media section was great. It was technical enough without being too painful" Remi Thackrey, Enterprising Pendle

Owen Coyle
Julian our MD has just interviewed Burnley manager Owen Coyle, for the Scruples magazine. Owen was his usual ebullient and positive self and had plenty to say on Burnley, on business, on style and who has the worst haircut in the squad! When the magazine comes out, we'll post a link to the interview.

Lancashire's Longest Doodle
This week we set off on our attempt to create Lancashire's longest doodle. Besides the fact that we hope to raise a bit of money for Pendleside Hospice, we want to get people involved in a basic artistic activity - as we think that creativity spawns ideas that can be the bed-rock of regeneration. We've seen it happen in London in places like Shoreditch - and we'd love to be part of a process like that in Pendle. The doodle itself is taking shape on a 200 metre length of cotton because we wanted to reference the former economic glories of our area, but our real focus is on future successes!
The response so far has been great - and the enthusiasm of the pupils at the two schools we've visited has been really excellent. We doodled 25 metres in two days last week! Any schools, businesses or community organisations interested in participating in Lancashire's Longest Doodle should call BrandSpankin' on 01282 878 301.

Business event
Julian, our MD, spoke last night at a business event at the Blackburn campus of Lancaster University. He spoke about Brand and Proposition as cornerstones of good SME marketing - and he managed to get through an hour without mentioning the fact that Burnley are above Blackburn in the Premier League!
