With less than a week to go until our creative Bubbles x Themes begins, it seems the perfect time to introduce our WR facilitators. 👋🏼 Each one comes with their own arsenal of creative superpower - from niche-knowledge to the arts and agency running. Our creative bubbles allow you to meet and greet with not only our facilitators but also with other like-minded creatives from the area to build our creative community. First up: Tuesday 12th Nov: Marketing - Facilitator - Katy Ennis-Hargreaves aka BOLDISM® Katy brings her endless energy and enthusiasm for getting yourself out there with confidence and boldly. And she loves a Trello planning list (so much so she does ours) She’s all for chatting through the good, the bad and the ugly side of social media, to pitching and about getting your brand seen, heard and remembered. Wednesday 13th Nov: Money - Facilitator - Darren Evans aka The Engine Room After 23 years running a successful agency, Darren has a deep knowledge, clarity and grasp of the practicalities on how to manage money. He has a brilliant way of simplifying and breaking down costing and all the money-led stuff akin to running a creative business. Thursday 14th Nov: Agencies - Facilitator - Doug Main aka The Bigger Boat - BUBBLE FULL! 🫧 Doug is the founder of The Bigger Boat and has run agencies (and grown them expedentially) with expertise and insight for over 25 years. He’s wisdom means theres not a lot he hasn’t experienced in agency land, from upsizing, running the show. His shrewd and calm demeanour make him the perfect host. We have a limited number of spaces left so head to the link in the bio to sign up for remaining spaces! #WilsonRepublic #CreativeBubbles #LimitedSeries #CreativeSupport #CommunityConnection

"It wasn’t long before we figured out we were good at what we did, and that we could do it for ourselves – rather than for someone else..." Andrew McCaul , Managing Director at The Bigger Boat , shares all the lessons he's learnt. More: https://loom.ly/YJaaoFM #Yorkshire #Digital #Agency

Prolific North

Our senior designer James Bornshin is packing his bags on his final day with us — and we're loading him up with plenty of merch for the road! 🚗 We've had a wonderful couple of years with him onboard, and the whole crew wish him the best of luck in his new job.

With more than two decades of experience in digital marketing, our co-founder and managing director Andrew McCaul caught up with Prolific North to discuss his daily habits, best failures, and running an agency as a dad. He also lets slip a little-known fact about the career path he thought he'd take (before he realised he quite liked having weekends off and being able to hear properly.) 🎧 Get to know Andy: https://lnkd.in/dG-S9WAu #YorkshireBusiness #LifeLessons #AgencyLife #IntegratedAgency #Leadership

Great to visit the Homebuilding & Renovating Show in Harrogate last Friday! It was exciting to catch up with my clients, 21 Degrees and Deuren , and have the chance to see them in action. It's always inspiring to see innovation in homebuilding firsthand – from low-energy building design to truly bespoke doors. I can't wait to see what’s to come for both of these brands. 👀

With Fable 4 set to release in 2025, we're looking back at a project we're proud of – a themed website we created to launch a previous version of the leading Xbox game. 🎮 Working with Lionhead Studios , part of Microsoft Studios (and now Xbox Game Studios Publishing ), this six-month project saw us design the interactive site’s look, feel, and function, working with the client to inject the humour and essence of the beloved Fable franchise. 🎮 Check it out: https://lnkd.in/e-Bh2aFw #GameMarketing #VideoGameWebsite #GameWebsite #UIDesign #UXDesign #Fable

That's a wrap on October. 🎉 With the office surroundings turning shades of auburn, take a glimpse into our month filled with collaboration, creativity, and plenty of smiles. 🐉 The crew headed south for a weekend away in the Welsh coastal town of Conwy. This saw us explore the scenes and monuments, before whizzing through a historic slate mine at Zip World UK . 🎃 We got our 'spook' on with a Halloween movie night held at the office, accompanied by a healthy heaping of Domino's pizza. 🎨 Doug Main , Jess Sims , and James Bornshin headed to Wilson's Republic 's WR12: Rhythm event in Huddersfield, absorbing knowledge from Ellen Ling and Mat Voyce . 🔥 Senior account manager, Isis Massey , saw things heating up at Fire Safety Matters in Manchester, collecting the latest industry insights on behalf of our fire safety supplier client, CheckFire Ltd . 🍂 And we couldn't mention our scenic office location, without showing a pic to make you a tiny bit jealous! #PhotoDump #TeamWork #AgencyLife #MarketingAgency
