What happens when you mix an architect, with a maker and 600 pallet boxes…Pallet Paradise of course! This artist led project, part of the Manor House Warehouse community in Tottenham, wanted to reach a much wider audience than the local creative scene through event marketing.
And while they weren’t short on creative ideas, Joe Wright (Architect) and Jenna Jardine (Maker) would be the first to admit explaining the concept wasn’t their strength…let alone marketing the event.
Where words fell short, the experience led the way. To capture what audiences could expect we worked with the event producers to mock-up snippets of the experience. This approach created content for the photographer, fed the details for the press release and gave the producers confidence to articulate what people could expect.
EVENT MARKETING
Pallet Paradise attracted record breaking attendance. Over the two days, 2,400 people traveled from all over London – from as far afield as Bromley in South London, to Harrow in North West London. The event even attracted enough contribution on the door to cover its costs twice over.
ENVIABLE PRESS COVERAGE
The secret to the success of the event marketing was through the press coverage gained. All too often event press releases are created from the producers perspective and not, as in this case, from what the audience was going to experience. Time Out London praised our approach; the event was the No.1 most clicked event listing that weekend.
