Building Brands –

we’re exhibiting at the South West’s marketing conference in Plymouth!

With just under a month to go until the Building Brands Marketing Conference in Plymouth, the team here at our creative studio HQ are really looking forward to our trip down to the South coast. 

And we’re very happy to announce that we will be exhibiting at the event!

Held in the striking Roland Levinsky Building in the heart of Plymouth city centre, the conference will, as always, celebrate and explore all things digital marketing and we are very excited to be bringing a little slice of Soap to the show. 

Christy and Amelia will be manning the Soap stand, alongside a few of our trusty fully recyclable roller banners and some very special plantable pencils. In keeping with our spirit of sustainability, for this conference we are going for a bit of a garden theme at our stand and will be trailing Sprout’s pencils. This means that once pages and pages of notes have been taken from all of the incredible workshops and keynotes, every pencil we give away can be planted and grown into Forget me nots, specifically picked so you won’t forget us!

In fact. Speaking of going green. Pete Durant’s keynote speech, Don’t let greenwashing stain your brand, has certainly piqued our interest and we’re eagerly anticipating his 10 top tips to help us put our sustainability pledges into action. 

We loved the idea of upgrading a pencil so that it has a second life as a plant and how this challenges us to consider what other small changes we can make in our everyday lives and work to be more sustainable. And we’re looking forward to sharing them with everyone at the conference when we get down to Devon in a couple of weeks.

Some of the Soap team were lucky enough to meet Pete Bracegirdle, another of the Building Brands’ keynote speakers, at the BCI’s recent brilliant talk in Bristol, Fearless Girl: How to make your brand famous and why that matters, and are really looking forward to hearing him discuss how being interesting can be a brand’s superpower come 23 May.

And once all the workshops have been completed and the keynotes have been, well, noted, you’ll be able to find us at the After Dark drinks, ready to relax and rub shoulders with some of the South West’s most brilliant and creative industry bods. See you there?
