Low key Christmas at OWB

We have deliberately decided to keep it low-key this Christmas and not really overdo it with the decorations, just a few tasteful fairy lights and the like....wishing all our readers a very Happy Chrimbo!

Good on the Girls!!

Despite desperate attempts from Andy to thwart her, Shari currently holds the highest score in the 'Desktop Rugby Championship'. In a tense lunchtime competition, Shari held her nerve and planted 2 out 3 conversions, leaving Andy reeling in his lame attempt to compete and as usual, he completely missed the mark!


More practice required me thinks!!

SHOCK CALL UP TO NATIONAL TEAM!

....after a disappointing, well very disappointing, well frankly absolutely awful Autumn series I was rather amazed to get the call from Twickenham this morning. I am to turn up for the January squad sessions at Pennyhill Park. I will therefore be embarking on a highly nutritious pre-Christmas carbohydrate fuelled diet with plenty of fluid intake, and will be following a strict series of carefully planned speed, stamina and contact drills. I have been released from Whittington Veterans (pictured) who have terminated my full-time contract whilst I look for a Premiership Club contract. If anyone has a spare gum shield it would be appreciated!

Leading Commercial Vehicle Hire Group turn to OWB

Prohire, one of the UK’s leading providers of commercial vehicle contract hire and fleet management systems for national brands including retail, pharmaceutical, business to business and consumer, has appointed the Birmingham based marketing and digital communications agency OWB to handle their account.

Andrew Morley, Sales and Marketing Director for Prohire commenting on the appointment stated, “OWB provided the innovation and expertise we were looking for from a marketing partner in driving the Prohire brand forward for the next 5 years. Their ability to translate our business growth plans into both direct sales promotion opportunities and online digital opportunities will strengthen the Prohire brand as we look to capture new markets and exploit new technologies and also extend our customer portfolio”.

Prohire, a Fast Track 100 business operates from its HQ in Fenton, Staffordshire and has successfully built the business that extends nationally throughout the UK. The business manages some 2000 vehicles and offers a range of services including Commercial Vehicle Contract Hire, Fleet Management and Purchase and Leaseback.

Initial work to be undertaken will include a direct marketing campaign to target new prospects looking to find a partner in-step with their business to handle their total fleet requirements. This will be followed by an overhaul of the Prohire website and online activity to raise the profile of the business brand.

“This is a tremendous win for OWB”, comments Andy Wilkinson, Managing Director. “We are looking forward to working with this highly driven business who have an exciting ethos going forward, a young management team who want to grow the Prohire brand and take it into many different avenues. We look forward to an exciting and rewarding partnership with the Prohire team”.
