uk-netmarketing Archive (2011-2015)

I agree there’s good value to be had in sharing experiences and lessons learned as MDs of our various digital businesses – a colleague of mine, Kelvin Newman, put something like this together in November, called Digital Agency Leaders, and is planning to run it again in the spring of 2014

The idea was to get twenty or so digital MDs together, organise a couple of thought provoking talks, some structured discussions, a proper lunch and plenty of time for networking all under a handshake NDA so everyone was nice and honest...

I went along and found it really useful, if you'd like I could intro him over email...

** Disclosure – Kelvin works with me and the event cost £ to attend**

Cheers,

Jason

Same here, count me in. It seems we spend most of our time educating even after all these years and trying to jet wash off the spin to reveal what really is good or not , worth it or not... etc ...

Can't believe it will be 15 years come January I've been in the digital game, same as most of you I'm sure.

Always happy to share

You could count me in too. Its hard enough running any business, but trying to do so in such a fast changing environment has special challenges. Being able to share the lessons we are all learning would be both useful, and cathartic.

Thanks Kirsten - you’re absolutely right, it’s super difficult to talk to everyone so, frankly, I often thing it’s best just to please yourself! At least when you offer a service that’s as bespoke and niche as we do.





I think your idea of some kind of founders meet-up is a great idea. I gave a talk the other day on “my top 5 fuck-ups” over the last 10 years of Kempt which was really well received (I think…) and would be more than happy to repeat it Sam? Perhaps we could encourage a few other brave souls to share some wisdom/tales of woe?





Cheers

I felt bad not responding to this earlier as it is brave and great to put out your new site and say, ‘so what do you think?’



Caroline’s comments inspired me as I had similar thoughts but hadn’t spent time putting them to words.



I love the creativity and illustrations – I don’t buy this kind of stuff but looking through the website I wondered if I should.



But it was a bit complicated (for me) and I wondered if the target were other creatives or the people who decide the budget or who choose the creative / technical teams – it is hard to talk to everyone.



I liked the honesty of your blog posts too. Maybe Sam has already thought of this and done it – sorry if I missed this somewhere – but what about a get together during SM week or a chinwag event for founder / owners of small creative and social businesses. Things can seem tough at times between delivering contracts and emptying the bins, perhaps we could share and learn from each other a bit more and remind ourselves that it is fun too.

Hi Chris





I LOVE the illustrations.


It doesn't answer 'where am I and what can I do here?' on either pages one or two, but it is undeniably exciting, so I don't mind clicking on to find out more. At this point I'm not entirely sure if you're a service or a community.


Takes a short while to understand you're showing me a slideshow - ref: don't make me think


Frustrating not to be able to click on the text bottom lhs to see more.


Takes a guess to click on 'pages' to access navigation - call it menu instead? = you're stepping away from web conventions, ie bad idea, ie don't make me think


Not much branding about Kempt, kind of a suprise to see it mentioned again in the menu.


Previous work pages too dominated by style of website - implies all your projects are styled the same.





Main impressions.


You're fun and very good illustrators.


You're not entirely focussed on client briefs


It's nice and simple but at the same time you've made it a bit unnecessarily difficult and busy.





Overall


I really like it, but it would have to be a very specific project, one very similar to your design, that I would come to you for.





Hope that helps.


We've got a new design coming on soon, I'll have to be brave like you and put it up for feedback.


Very best





Cx

Hello old friends!





Welli’s been a touch quiet on the list recently, are you all still there? Just super busy I guess or maybe we’re all getting to that old and jaded part of our career where we just buckle down and get on with earning money for our partners/kids/other expensive habits?





Well anyway, Kempt quietly passed a couple of milestones this year:





1) We turned 10 (and I forgot!).





2) We finally got around to the rebrand that i’ve been planning for at least… 9 years?!





We’ve just got the website up ( www.kempt.co.uk<http://www.kempt.co.uk> ) so I’d really love it if you could swing by, take a look and let me know what you think? Does it work? Is there enough content on there? Does anything not make sense? I look forward to being ritually torn apart in due course :o)





Cheers
