Celebrating Your Agency Milestone Birthday

If it is your agency’s first birthday or one ending in a “0” or a “5” say thank you to your loyal customers and celebrate by holding a birthday bash.

At a time when competitors are closing the doors and withdrawing off the high street, it's a great opportunity to celebrate the fact that you're still providing a face to face service. It also offers the opportunity to build even more local awareness. This is why we’ve created a tool kit to support you and attract as many people to come along as possible.

Planning the Birthday Bash

  • A chat with your Regional Area Manager around 12 weeks before the birthday date, will give you all enough time to plan a date which works for colleagues and customers.
  • Think about what else is happening in the local area – market days are a great way of picking up extra footfall on the day itself.
  • Can it be linked in with the YBS Charity Partner? This provides a greater ‘story hook’ for a local press release.
  • We can support with a poster, invite cards, press advert and promo items.
  • Set a date and get planning - a tea party always works well for these sorts of events, you don’t have to spend a fortune - just get stocked up on cakes and tea and coffee!
