Blueprint

As we wind down for the holiday break, we want to wish you a Merry Christmas. Thanks for everything in 2022, we can't wait to do it all again next year!

The Blueprint team on a top secret mission for Aston Martin over the weekend. More to follow when the embargo is lifted!

Last week we helped @astonmartin bring their international leadership team together for a day of presentations, learning and workshops. #internalcomms #automotive #learning #experiences

We dropped our global influencer kits for the latest NBA @2K game recently, and it’s been amazing to see posts about how much they've loved them. Check out some of the shares about the NBA 2K23 kit featuring microphone, hoodie and poster - slam dunk! #2Kgames #NBA2K23

“C’est banana!” Fun with our Sky Broadband Minion Pod Party in Leicester with photo opps and giveaways. Pod staff said, “it was fun, did wonders for engagement with customers and drove a lot of footfall towards the stand!” At Sky Pods in Leeds and Manchester this weekend!

Last weekend our Sky Sports Start of Season #PremierLeague activation kicked off in Gateshead. A hattrick of freestyle footballers taught skills to the crowd whilst customers got to the heart of the action in our in-store football photobooth. More this weekend at Bluewater!

Joining the (ever-expanding) Blueprint team this week is Account Manager Harry Clinkscales, who will be supporting our technology clients. When not at Blueprint, you might find him raising money for charity, such as his recent triathlon around Snowdon (ouch).

Mission accomplished! Our Virtual Mission from the London office to the High School we helped build in Bule, Ethiopia is complete. We've done so well we're extending the mission to our US office in Plano, Texas. Fantastic effort team! #challenge #team

They say good things come in threes: the third piece of Blueprint people news (in a week!) is the arrival of Camila Picco. A UX/UI specialist joining us from Deliveroo, Argentinian-born Camila is already adding value on projects for clients across the globe. Bienvenida Camila

Paul Jones joins the Blueprint family this week as a client service specialist. After 20 years meeting the needs of finance clients including MBNA, Barclays and M&S Bank, today is his first day in the agency world. We’re thrilled to welcome him to the team.

Our charity partner @HFGiving made us aware of their Tech4Kids Appeal, to supply tech equipment to children in urgent need. When we moved office we found some spare devices that we were delighted to donate. Please consider supporting the Tech4Kids campaign. #digitalpoverty

Joining us today is Nina Collings, who starts with us as a Senior Account Manager. At a previous role Nina came back from holiday to find the team had soundproofed her office, so we’re sure you’ll hear from her soon.

It's a proud day as our charity partner @HFGiving launches the new website we have all been working on: hubs.ly/Q01fbNWj0. Blueprint wants to leave the world in a better place than we found it and this is just one small contribution. #charity #giving

We are delighted to welcome Terry Przybiski to the Blueprint family. When he’s not in our Dallas office, he’ll be riding his road bike, travelling and cooking - sometimes all as part of the same trip. Howdy Terry!

As the Blueprint team continues to expand on both sides of the Atlantic, it’s time for a bigger office. Our flexible approach gives everyone enough time together for vital collaborative working and training, but takes into account people’s busy lives. #office #collaboration

Last week Blueprint and 48 of the UK’s most influential media businesses took part in the Childline Sportsday and raised over £229,000 to support children and young people who need it the most. Childline is available 24/7 on hubs.ly/Q01dzj1c0 or by phone on 0800 11 11.

Update on our virtual mission from London to Bule: after just 36% of the time we've completed 90% of the distance. So we've extended our goal to our US office in Plano, Texas...time to get moving again team! #teamwork #challenge #stepbystep

Seeing is believing? Well, experiencing is next level. We’ve been bringing marketing campaigns to life with our friends at Sky. From #formula1 #Minions and Sky Glass, we’ve drawn in the crowds. #retail #experiences #augmentedreality #gamification

As royalty has been the focus of the last few days (congratulations your Majesty!) it seems appropriate to showcase our part in delivering the Prince’s Trust Awards for ITV last week. Capturing 12% of total viewing figures, it was a well-watched show #behindthescenes
