Piers Morgan says hello to our cracking team of npower girls

An integral part of this branding and implementation is the team of ‘npower girls’ that provide a strong visual presence at all the live matches. MASH are the premium supplier of brand ambassadors for all of the npower fixtures and are proud to be in our 3rd year of a fantastic partnership.

npower have also recently announced that they will be taking over from Coca-Cola and sponsoring the Football League from August 2010 until June 2013 which is fantastic news for all concerned and we can’t wait to be supporting them in this exciting new chapter.

The fantastic npower team!

Keep your eyes open for the npower girls at the cricket across the country  this Summer.

Mike Gatting has a tough day at the office...

On the 3rd of February 2010 our own Mash Co-founder Phil Edelston conducted a presentation named the “Ingredients of Marketing Mix”.

He delivered an engaging and inspirational session to a group of thirty ambitious students, all of whom harbour an ambition to become successful entrepreneurs.The presentation was part of a three day course linking in with NACUE - The National Consortium of University Entrepreneurs (www.nacue.com) which took place at the London Metropolitan University. Phil aimed to provide a detailed and practical coaching strategy covering key points such as:

• The background of marketing.
• What a marketing strategy is.
• How to put a strategy together.

Phil prepared by digging back into his own university lectures, using his own knowledge and experience combined to deliver an interactive and productive presentation.
Once the basic points were covered, Phil focused on marketing in today’s society and the accessibility that has been created through the current digital and social media.

As a widely expanding and popular domain, the participants were able to benefit in learning how to use these opportunities to their advantage.

As a successful entrepreneur himself (Phil co-founded Mash - www.mashmarketing.co.uk and Dylan* - www.dylanlondon.com ), Phil’s aim is to empower up and coming entrepreneurs, assisting in fast tracking their goals and provide any knowledge share that can help drive successful marketing initiatives through their businesses.
