MyLongLunch Adds More Live Dates

05/06/2008 09:45:00

Last month we launched MyWorkingLunch, the live event arm of the company, to massive success. It’s a simple format: speed-dating meetings for recruitment media and agencies. We take 15 media companies and 15 agency contacts, put them in a social but professional environment. The events are themed. Each agency contact gets 10 minutes with the media representative – time for a brief pitch and then an opportunity to chat. After 10 minutes the agency contact moves to the next media representative. Simple, but effective: for media it’s a way to get face time with new contacts without having to chase through phone calls and for agencies it’s a focussed event with guaranteed relevance.

This is what a few of our clients said:

“We really enjoyed the Diversity event last week and whilst we were familiar with a couple of faces, the majority had either not heard of us or were not really aware of the services we offer. This was a great case scenario as we were able to reach a new audience of key decision makers. I have already put together two proposals following the meeting.” Julie Harwood – WorkingMums

“Following on from our attendance to the innovation event, we have meet with 3 media and have set up a trial with one. From diversity we have booked in 4 meetings – with a view of incorporating at least 2 into our schedules. We have also been encouraging our media to join the Long Lunch revolution telling them that they are missing a trick!” Lois Holland - TMP
