Busy Start to 2018 as Shooting Star Picks Up New Clients
It’s been a busy start to the new year for Lincoln-based PR and marketing specialist Shooting Star which has picked up three new clients and renewed a long-standing contract.
The award-winning PR, marketing and digital agency has started working with Lincolshire care company Tanglewood Care Homes, NK Academy in North Hykeham and Grimsby insolvency and company recovery specialists Forbes Burton.
The agency has also won a four-way pitch to continue its work with the Greater Lincolnshire Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP). The team has looked after the LEP’s comms brief since 2012, and this new tender win means Shooting Star will be working with the LEP until at least 2020.
The NK Academy contract was also awarded after a competitive tender process.
Director at Shooting Star Jez Ashberry said: “The New Year is always a busy time for us as an agency. We’re often planning ahead and holding meetings with clients to make sure we start the year as we mean to go on. However, to kick off 2018 with three new clients and an extension to one of our longest-standing contracts is fantastic.
“We’re really excited to be working with such a diverse range of companies. Each new client has plenty to shout about and we’re working closely with them all to deliver some great campaigns.”
Fellow Director Kate Strawson added: “It’s been a busy start to the year and we’re now looking forward to expanding the business further in 2018 in line with our ambitious growth strategy.
“We’re looking forward to welcoming new staff on board in the coming months to support our already hard-working team.”
Other clients currently on Shooting Star’s roster include glass manufacturer Beatson Clark, fresh chilled food producer Freshtime, Lincoln logistics specialists VisionDrive and Midlands Family Business of the Year OrderWise.
