Boomtown has hit the ground running in 2021 with a new client \u2013 already! \u2013 to add to the half a dozen it signed up during the Covid-19 months.<\/p>\n

The newcomer to the Boomtown stable \u2013 SANSA, the South African National Space Association, has tasked Boomtown with a brand revamp and joins Stellenbosch University, Tarsus Distribution, NESCAF\u00c9 RICOFFY, Nelson Mandela Bay Tourism and Mandela Bay Development Agency, all of whom appointed Boomtown during 2020.<\/p>\n

Agency CEO, Glen Meier, said he is inspired for the new year by the momentum of the agency\u2019s recent award-winning work, by the response to its Bayeza Graduate Internship Programme, and by his team, which he said proved adaptable and professional in the face of the work and personal challenges thrown up by the pandemic, and efforts to curb it.<\/p>\n

\u201cEveryone is justifiably enthused by their ability to be agile and adapt as many times as we did through the year. In addition to producing relevant work for our clients, we launched our in-house production and video content studio and went on to win several awards.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe personal and professional growth of the agency is evident in the types of work we are winning, and our showing in the awards ceremonies,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Boomtown\u2019s award wins during the year included Silver and Craft Pendorings for Nestl\u00e9 Healthier Kids as well as being recognised in four different categories at the 2020 Assegai Awards for \u2018The Silent Killer \u2013 Hypertension Awareness\u2019, created for client Circular Health, Sovereign\u2019s \u2018Don\u2019t be chicken, check them\u2019 and its own credentials.<\/p>\n

Included on Meier\u2019s own list of work he thought really stood out during the are the Sovereign \u2018Worry Boob\u2019 Breast Cancer Awareness campaign, Woodlands Dairy Sustainability, NESCAF\u00c9 RICOFFY Heritage, Hogan Lovells Africa Forum 2020 and Nestl\u00e9 Healthier Kids.<\/p>\n

He also praised the campaign to position the FirstChoice brand as a future-forward company investing in 17 areas of sustainability from farming to packing, and bringing the annual Africa Forum online with a turnout of just under 1000 attendees, the largest number of participants since the Forum\u2019s inception.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut that was last year,\u201d he quipped, \u201cwe\u2019re looking forward to the new, and especially towards giving back to our home city and helping to build its economy and skills base through Bayeza, our graduate programme.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis year we have 10 graduates joining us in the disciplines of design, art direction and copywriting, digital strategy, market immersion, videography, social media content creation and client service. Our doors open to them on January 18.\u201d<\/p>\n
