Happy hockey sticks claim gold!

“Gold! Always believe in your soul.”

Yes, we couldn’t resist singing along to this cheesy 80’s classic either!

Hockey

When you get an e-mail saying a Team GB gold medallist from last summer’s Olympics is coming to spend the day at Happy HQ to gain agency experience there’s a little excitement in the air.

Nicola White swapped her hockey stick for Happy after meeting Simon Brooke at Oldham Athletic just weeks after they swept the competition aside close to the Copacabana.

The 28-year-old scored the equaliser in normal time as Team GB beat the Netherlands on penalties on an historic night in Rio during the summer.

The Oldham-born forward also has a bronze medal from the London Games.

Away from the sticks and the pitch, Nicola has a keen interest in marketing and was invited to spend a day shadowing the experts at Happy.

Nicola said: “After a crazy summer focusing on Rio and an even crazier few weeks with parades and having my life turned around following Team GB’s success it was great to spend some time with another interest of mine.

“I have always been interested in the world of marketing and after meeting Simon he suggested he came and shadowed the Happies for a day.

“It was fascinating to see all the different fields they work in and creative minds developing ideas for their clients.”

Social Media

All the tweets and posts in the world won’t help generate leads unless there’s some strategic thinking behind what you’re doing.

We’ll help define the right social media strategy for you, so that you’re on the right platforms, saying the right things to the right people at the right time to generate the right leads.

Design & Brand Building

Marketing is bit like those huge, swirling flocks of starlings you see from time to time. Individually your brochure, email, ad, meme or gif may not change the world.

But when you join them together and ensure they’re all heading in the same direction, you have the power to stop people in their tracks.

We design communications that help build a consistent brand and convert more leads to sales.

Websites

Your website can generate leads in so many ways. Informed content. Strong calls to action. A simple, natural journey from ‘Hi there!’ to ‘Buy now’.

Yet websites are never ‘done’. They need to keep evolving to keep pace with your customers’ expectations, so we’ll be with you for the long haul to keep tweaking, refining and growing your site – and to deliver the PPC campaigns that help drive traffic towards it.

Because when your website keeps working to understand and speak to your audience, you’ve got more chance of converting.
