Putting the fun into fundraising

by David Hughes on June 2, 2009

First Fridays is a monthly, free to attend, fundraising surgery where charities of all sizes meet to discuss their fundraising issues with International Fundraising Consultancy (IFC) founder, John Baguley and his colleagues.

John asked Piers to create an IFC sub-brand that had a chatty, informal tone of voice to match the atmosphere at the meetings.

The meetings have become such a success that at times it’s standing room only.

The relationship with John and the IFC goes back many years and everyone in the collective has lent a hand in support of its aims and produced some outstanding work along the way.

Here’s what John has to say about working with Piers on this project in particular.

New services on the FlySoup menu

by David Hughes on September 9, 2008

David has re-designed FlySoup’s web site to coincide with the addition of three new services: Search Engine Optimisation and Marketing, Competitor Benchmarking, and SEO training.

The new services make use of all the statistical information delivered by FlySoup’s web tracking and helps build more traffic as opposed to simply measuring the current flow.
