Further success came to Message Merchants with the win of the UKTI East Midlands PR account. The pitch process saw us competing against six other agencies. We won it thanks to the invaluable input from our Digital and New Media summer placement student, Laura. We were the only agency to include digital and new media in our pitch and client feedback said that this was the deciding factor.

UKTI East Midlands need to raise the profile of their work with businesses who want to start exporting their services and products. We will also work with UKTI to increase the number of entries to their International Business Awards which are held on November 26th at the Marriott in Leicester.
 
This contract forms part of our work with UKTI East Midlands, where we have successfully pitched and won a design contract and a photography contract. The design project involves working on their annual review and the photography contract is linked to the International Business Awards in November.
