“This was more than just a run-of-the-mill open house; we worked very hard to pull together a diverse selection of complementary specialist suppliers – all exceptional in their own field and all with something really exciting to talk about and demonstrate to our visitors. We organised a workflow within the showroom to demonstrate every aspect of the creation and production of a promotional pack that included a hard cover book, bespoke pack of cards and ‘hand’ written recipe notelet with covering letter, all presented in a luxury box with foiled and/or embossed personalised lid. It was all produced live by the event partners and met with a universally favourable reaction from the attendees. We all know everybody’s time is at a premium, so we were determined to pack as much ammunition into this event for visitors to take away and use to help build up their business firepower. ”
