Did you know that 20% of UK doctors use ChatGPT to help with diagnoses? Or that police are trialling AI tools to condense 81 years of detective work into just 30 hours? Neither did we until we attended MMC Learning’s course on generative AI tools and the future of marketing 🤯 It was fascinating to hear from Imran Farooq, Peter Rees, James Partington, and Tom Sullivan about how generative AI is changing every industry. As technology evolves, it’s important for us to stay ahead of it, making sure we have the right tools at our disposal to achieve the best outcomes for our clients 💫 #AI #Communications #Marketing #PR

Sometimes chance encounters lead to unexpected outcomes. At the inaugural Northumberladies Networking event last week at The Alnwick Garden, our founder, Rachel McBryde, met some incredible women, enjoyed an insightful talk from coach Gill Caleary and made a meaningful connection to her past. The next Northumberladies session will take place in January at Charlton Hall in Northumberland. Give the Northumberladies Networking LinkedIn page a follow to stay in the loop. #Northumberladies #Networking #NorthEastBusiness
Supporting organisations to create content that generates conversations.
Last week, a chance encounter took me back a decade and stirred some emotions I wasn’t expecting. When you head to networking events you literally never know who you’re going to meet, or what you’re going to end up discussing, but usually your head is in work mode (and in my case, also, ‘I hope the coffee is decent’ mode.) I was kindly invited to the inaugural Northumberladies Networking event at The Alnwick Garden hosted by the dynamo that is Lauren St Hilaire, Senior Partnerships Manager. I was lucky enough to be seated beside marketing manager Sheela Bell and Stephanie Linnell a partner specialising in planning and development who both work at GFW. Whenever I discover someone is from a planning background my ears prick up. My late father was a planning officer for many years before starting his own practice alongside my mum, so I have an interest. As we got chatting, it turned out Stephanie had known Tony, when she worked at Alnwick District Council and he worked at Castle Morpeth. She smiled, and said she’d been talking about him only the other day. Although it’s a decade since his passing, the memory of him beavering away in his office at The Kylins, his desk overflowing with files and committee papers, hit me hard. It’s somewhere I’d often trudge to after school to cadge a lift home, and happily be sent to the tuck shop (a drawer in a colleague’s desk) for a bar of chocolate while I waited. It really did touch me to know that he was still remembered and talked about and that his memory lives on beyond our family. I guess we’d all like to think we’ll leave an impression on the world after we leave it. The chance encounter was unexpected but so welcome. At the event, speaker Gill Caleary talked about the importance of being our authentic selves in order to make meaningful connections, so we can support and help each other in life and in business. My conversation with Stephanie had nothing to do with our professional careers but felt very real to me. At McBryde & Co our tag line is ‘Content that Creates Conversations.’ This chance encounter at Northumberladies reminded me that conversations can lead to so many opportunities – and that can mean so many things. Yes, conversations can help grow your business or connect with collaborators, but also, they can lead you to so much more. For me, no conversation is ever wasted; you never know where it will lead you, and in this case, it was to a happy place. #Northumberladies #Networking #NorthEastBusiness

“I can genuinely say they are the most professional, friendly and results-proven company I’ve ever dealt with. They’re all very approachable, honest, and always thinking about us, I get lots of ideas from them.” Recently, we decided to commission 360 Growth Partners Limited to conduct research into our past and current clients to understand why almost 80% of them have stayed with us since our inception in 2019. Jodie, our Director of Client Services, has written a blog on the findings and the importance of client relations 🤝 Click the link in the comments to read the full article 👇 #Relationships #CustomerSatisfaction #Feedback #PR #Agency
