Supporting Small Business

When a client asked if we could help out their friend with a press advert for their interior design business we were more than happy to offer our support.

Working with Joanna at Sabella was very easy – as an interior designer she could easily visualise what she wanted plus she had some gorgeous imagery for us to use.

Supporting small businesses is very important to us – we’re not an agency that chases big budgets, we chase passion!

 

Supporting small businesses

When we were asked to help create a brand identity for a local florist – who has also been a part of the c/e team for years – we jumped to the challenge!

It’s always easier when someone has a strong sense of what they want and we just need to help translate it into a final, finessed identity – we had a name, we had a style … and 22 Flowers was born!

 

 

15? How did that happen!?

We’re about to turn 15 … When I started chicken/egg back in 2004 I was predominantly supporting other agencies as a Pitch Doctor and helping them with their employee engagement. Fast forward four years and we’d evolved to become a stand-alone agency supporting clients with their marketing planning and design.

My business model was quite unique (bringing together collaboration through freelance/consultant teams) but fast forward again and it’s becoming pretty mainstream and lots of agencies operate in this fluid and cost effective way. That actually makes me feel confident that I’ve created a strong business that can continue to grow.

I might be the Chief Chicken but my eggscellent (there had to be pun in this status!) coop of designers, writers, digital specialists, social & PR experts, videographers, photographers, developers have made chicken/egg the agency that I love running!

Thank you to all past, present (and future) clients who have entrusted your marketing budgets with us … cheers!

 

 

Small Business Branding

We love working with companies big and small and helping a local mum launch her new business was a great fun project to be involved with.

We spent some time together talking about what she was offering – chemical peels, botox, fillers – and how she was going to manage this alongside her continued nursing role in the cancer ward of the local hosptial plus juggling motherhood and life in general!

After just three ‘mentoring’ sessions she had an action plan, a brief for her branding and a renewed confidence in herself … and Holistic Nurse Aesthetics was hatched!
