Media Mix: Paver Smith picks up three; fresh Group

PR agency Paver Smith is celebrating a trio of account wins.

The Liverpool-based firm, which has offices in Manchester and London, says it is negotiating with another 12 prospective clients.

Senior partner Dougal Paver said: “Our pipeline has suddenly grown markedly and that can only be because people are feeling more confident.
It can sometimes feel relentlessly gloomy out there, but we’re seeing reasons to be cheerful as Christmas approaches.”

Joining the firm’s client roster are Southport’s famous Warehouse Kitchen + Bar, co-owned by Liverpool and England captain Steven Gerrard and entrepreneur Paul Adams; specialist consultancy Seneca Banking Partners; and luxury skincare brand Nico Cosmetics.

CHEADLE creative communications agency The fresh Group delivered the ceremonies and special events programme at The Skills Show.

Taking place at the NEC in Birmingham last month, The Skills Show is the  UK’s biggest skills and career event.

With eight events spanning over four days – including the opening and closing ceremonies, which both attracted 3,000 guests – fresh was also responsible for a number of smaller events, including a welcome dinner, awards ceremony and a spectacular finale.

Fresh managing director, Patrick Howells said: “From pitch to delivery, this has been a truly integrated project for us, with every division within fresh being involved in some way. We have worked hard since the pitch process to bring our creative ideas to life, and are extremely proud of the end result.”
