Hi Will, So another year passes and members of the general public have won Britain's Got Talent viewers over with their solo performances, but these individuals weren't so obliging:
It follows on from last year's You Wouldn't Do It Sober campaign. This time round, the clips are all about getting members of the public to indulge in drunken behavior, except without being drunk.
It's a bit of a social experiment: will people still fight, flirt, fall over etc without 10 pints inside them? The film was created by VCCP and they are seeding it on behalf of the Home Office.
Follow up fatigue is probably stopping your company from not only reaching but exceeding your targets. The American Business Press tell their members that new subscribers will say yes not after the third or fourth approach but on the seventh and eighth request.
Are you following up on that early sign of interest and talking with your prospects at the right time and on a regular basis - when they are ready to make that all important buying decision. That is after you have reminded them about your product or service the seventh or eighth time.
If this strikes a chord please call us at theMarketingblog. We have now developed an approach which will keep your company top of mind with top quality, highly readable articles, case studies which will position you when business is being written.

If you haven't seen it already, remixer Cassetteboy has spliced together Sir Alan's choicest rants into a "bloody" amusing video. Warning: the language is not for the faint-hearted.

Hi Will, I'm working with the Next Generation Talent programme. We have put together this video - a cheeky look at the stereotypes of advertising. Hope you'll take a look.
The video has been launched alongside some research we've just released that looked into young people's post-Uni plans and found that many are looking to advertising, marketing and other creative industries over banking and finance due to the recession. Alan Duncan 020 7927 9999
