It’s no secret that this has been a rather interesting year for us all.
We have spoken to our clients around the globe, who are struggling immensely with importing / exporting and general raised costs and taxes. We have all adapted along the way, and here at BDP lots of processes and policies have changed to accommodate the current climate.
The thing that hasn’t changed is our commitment to being the only true data owner in the UK and unwavering customer service together. With our 100% guarantee that we put in place almost 6 years ago. Looking forward, we strive every day to be the ultimate no.1 B2B data company globally across the world. With well-established relationships in France, Spain, Poland, Middle East, and USA.
Of course, it is not always all work and no play, we have found it incredibly important this year to ensure that we look after all our staff and ensure that our team work as a family.
Here are some of the things that can make a big difference to the state of mind in an office:
– extra surprise days off.
– a walk outside at lunchtime (you all know you sit behind your desks with a sandwich).
– sage coffee machine and a constant supply of beans.
– a bunch of flowers or a box of chocolates.
– random lunches to the office.
– away days and implementing staff ideas.
– working with charities and providing small benefits (our theme this year was animal shelters).
The little things make a difference
It’s the little things that make such a difference, and so we had a little vote in our offices to see what benefited them most about working at BDP Agency. Well, I’m sure you can guess, yes, the coffee machine won over the extra days off, shortly followed by our implementation of the great ideas put forward by our staff’s ‘away days’ this year. I did say that we have great teamwork here at BDP.
Does your office have great teamwork? Are your employees happy in their role? We have had an extraordinary number of changes to our database this year. More limited companies then ever have closed, and an unprecedented number of employees are changing positions.
In fact, moving forward in 2023, it will be incredibly likely that a substantial portion of your current database you are targeting for your marketing campaigns will be out-of-date. With employees changing job positions or companies altogether. If you are a current client, we will be in touch in the New Year. Or, even if you are not a client and would BDP like to review your current database and carry out some data cleansing, or perhaps even some Christmas Campaign Ideas. Please get in touch so that we can update your existing details and make sure that you are kept GDPR Compliant.
For now, as we wind down for Christmas, we chose this year to purchase dog blankets for each of the dogs at our local animal shelter to ensure they can keep warm throughout the bitterly chilly winter.
Finally, we would like to give all our clients a heartfelt ‘thank you’ for all your business. We hope you take a well-earned break over the festive season and come together to celebrate the little things that brighten our days.
For the first time over our 12+ years, all our account managers, data team and operations will all be taking a break from the 22nd December 2022 to 3rd January 2023. However, should you fancy a chat over this season or have a pressing matter, our reception team will still be here to take your calls 24 hours a day, 7 days a week as we always promised.
We look forward to speaking with you in 2023.
All the team at BDP Agency.
