Yesterday, Sarah and Rosie went along to Season Launch! 🎶

This is our fourth season working with BPO, and we love it! The orchestra has such a rich local history (celebrating its 100th birthday last year), and the people both on stage, behind the scenes, and in the audience are so lovely to work with. 

In previous seasons, we've supported them with organic and paid social media, and we're excited to be launching their TikTok channel in the coming weeks! 🥳

We can't wait for the season ahead and thoroughly recommend you go along to one of their concerts if you can, it's quite the lineup!

Happy birthday to our brilliant Senior Social Media Manager, Sarah! 🎉

A sweet cinnamon roll, she’s our go-to for restaurant recommendations (seriously, don’t book without asking her first), a keen photographer with an incredible eye, and always up for a good theme park adventure 🎢

Next up: a very well-deserved birthday trip to Japan 🇯🇵
Have the best time, Sarah — we can’t wait to hear all about it (and live vicariously through your photos) 📸

We're so lucky to have your creativity, calm, and sparkle on the team. 🎂

What an honour its been to support Brighton Philharmonic on their 100th season 🎶✨️

Today was their Centenary Gala concert, and some of us were there to soak up the cosmic beauty of the Turangalîla Symphony. And wow, did the orchestra deliver! 🤩

We were working too, so expect some 1st class content in preparation for the 101st season.

Congratulations to everyone involved for a spectacular season, and here's to the next 100 🥂

Thank you for trusting us to be part of your team.

Only one week until Brighton SEO 🤩

We bloody love it! James has spoken there twice now and we've been attending for almost 10 years. Where has that time gone?

Anyway, if you'd like to relive one of those times James's talk from last year on diversitying your adscape is now available on Brighton SEO's YouTube channel. Where he talks about going beyond Meta ads to reach specific audiences with Spotify ads and WeAre8.

Go have a watch 📺

We couldn’t help ourselves… 😂

What do you reckon - do we make good Muppets? (Some might say we didn’t have far to go! 🧡)

On a slightly more serious note, AI has seriously levelled up when it comes to creative fun - and if you’re curious about its use in social media ads, our very own James will be sharing his insights on the AI & Social Media panel at Social Day this May.
