The client list seems somewhat prestigious. Why not stick the big names on the front page, they're working in marketing no? So why not market themselves, seems silly, either that or they're not really clients...

Wonder if these bluechip companies, especially the financial giants, are aware of the work done for them by a small concern in Berks?  :wink:

I'm sure they wouldn't lie about representing major corporations. They tend to have major legal departments!

I'd guess that they haven't done much work for the big names, but have done more for the smaller companies, hence the latter can be used as case studies more easily.

"Merge with SEL Presentations and the Dunwoody Group broadens our services"

Its a merger..................the above client list was probably SEL's, and not Dunrobbin's

Cute work done on another sucker !

If you follow the Dunwoody link from the front page, then look at their client list there are a load more case studies that cover some of the bigger name clients.

It's a range of work, some of which is simply putting together one of presentational displays. The general marketing, creative and brand development side of things looks a proper business, with some talented people involved.

The Sports publication side has a good range of clients too. Makes you wander why a certain person spends so much time "running" STFC?

SEL HOLD A GREAT CLIENT LIST AND MOST OF IT IS SIMPLE PRESENTATION STUFF AND CONFERENCES .. THE MIRASHADE CONNECTION IS THEY WERE ANOTHER STRUGGLING COMPANY THAT DIAMOND MIKE BOUGHT FOR A SONG SACKED DIRECTORS AND STAFF AND SAVED THE COMPANY ... HE IS A BUSINESS GURU AS WE ALL KNOW ..

MIRASHADE were a great Video and communications agency run by a couple of Guys Simon and Baz Simon departed just before  the take over / buy out and BAZ remained .. I believe that didn't last long either...

If you want to know any more I could get more indepth ..

So what your getting at is that Diamond Mike is an expert in dealing with failing compaines and knows what to do to them ?  :shock:

Most of the clients listed on those sites including Mirashade who are now part of Dunwoody, are historic ... they have lost alot of business in the last two years ... most of the footy clubs the wine clubs the conferencing etc

Well no one said they had to be existing clients in the portfolio did they

All of these smaller failing entities usually kick arround until such a time as they need to be folded. seems common practice nowadays..
