All change

It's been mighty quiet on here...but only because we've had our heads down on a number of projects. The last few months have seen us deep into three new websites, four new brand identities and an online animated game for Christmas. Some of this work will be posted soon, so keep watching.

There's also news on our location – our address and telephone number will be changing on 1 January 2012. Our new details will be:

Gibson
22 Portman Road
London SW14 8NX

T: 020 3151 3141

All other stuff (like email addresses and this URL) will remain the same.

Email black holes

Here's a thought for business owners – if you studiously ignored all the emails that you receive asking for quotes or consultations, how much business would you lose over a year?

We've emailed three different companies, in three different sectors, in the last month. We asked for quotes in each email and were ignored by all three. Admittedly, one sent us an automated message promising that we would be 'attended to' as soon as they could humanly do so, but nothing since. Not a peep.

An email address on your website should surely start a conversation...not open a black hole.

There's a storm coming...

FT Technologies are one of our new technology clients. They are designers and manufacturers of patented ultrasonic wind sensors; the kind that are fixed atop a wind turbine and trusted in all weathers to report if it's safe to let the blades spin. Run a turbine in too high a wind and the blades will overspin and it will rip itself apart.

We've just completed an evolution of the brand identity and a new CMS-driven website for the Teddington company.



The new site has also been engineered with SEO in mind, which is why FT now figure high on Google for a number of chosen phrases.

A new website for Alexander Ash

We've just released a new website for the change and transformation recruitment specialists in finance and technology, Alexander Ash, based in London's Business Design Centre.


Following a review of their old website, including a full rationalisation of the design and structure, we built a clearer and more intuitive site that promotes the company and advertises all of their job vacancies channelled via a third party distributor.

Gibson Atom at Dad's Day Out 2011

If you fancy a blast in the Gibson Atom 300, for a small fee that will go to The Children's Trust, come along to the Dads' Day Out on Saturday May 14th, where we'll be giving passenger rides around the BBC Top Gear circuit. The supercar charity event is getting bigger every year for enthusiastic owners, petrolheads, their families and friends.

Update Over £100,000 was raised for The Children's Trust this year. Make sure you come along in 2012 and help us beat that total!
