Somethings in life are easier to do looking in the mirror, like having a shave or brushing your teeth. Writing about yourself is not one of them. Mirror or not, if any of you have been given the task to write about yourself, your business or product you will know what I mean.
One of the first things you do in the digital world is to do an internet search for people, businesses, services or whatever you need to write about. Then you can madly copy and paste them onto a document and before you know it you have page after page of bla after bla and then you start to edit it to suit your needs. After working up a sweat you find yourself with a couple hundred plagarised words that at first read make you feel like the deed is done but when you read them again they sound like the worst re-run ever. Believe me I have done this so many times and have the gigs on my hard drive to prove it.
Today I tried something different when Andrew Bleakley reminded me that I was responsible for writing an About us, about us for our new website and other social media related activities. After cutting and pasting the best words from the best advertising and digital design sites I could find, not to mention cursing flash sites that you can’t cut and paste from it came to me. Ironically it came to me when I was writing down, yes writing and I was even using a fountain pen. These need to be my words: Fresh from my cranium and unique to our team and what we do. So without further a do, here is what I have come up with about us.
ABOUT USBush Branding & Marketing is an independent, full service, digital creative agency. Our team members were birthed in the 60s, 70s and 80’s so we know our ways around the traditional and digital world. We offer you our international experience in design, development and promotion. What sets us apart is our entrepreneurial spirit and work ethic. Our founder has started up and continues to manage a handful of businesses that keeps our team busy and on our toes when it comes to delivering measurable results. We are really good at coming up with ideas that will take flight like a feather. On the other hand we know how to push the back end of an elephant up a steep hill if that’s what it takes to get the job done.Bush Marketing has not won any awards and it never will. We applaud agencies that have the time and money to enter the never ending list of award shows; however, when our days and nights are done we can think of much better ways to have fun like thinking of new ways to grow the brands in our care (especially our own).
