Atom Client Day

The Atom Client Day in association with Hearst Magazines last Friday at the Good Housekeeping Institute was a huge success! After a quick practice with the software we were to use during our presentations (and a cup of tea, of course) we greeted our clients at the door with champagne and canapés whilst everybody got introduced. We were welcomed by Jude Secombe, Publishing Director of Hearst’s Lifestyle Group, who gave us a short presentation on the changes at Hearst. We then moved through to the restaurant and enjoyed further presentations from House Beautiful and participated in a quiz game hosted by Country Living.

After a lovely lunch and a chance to chat with various members of the editorial team at Hearst, the Atom Account Managers took to the stage to talk about the imminent launch of our new exciting website. Hannah gave everybody a sneak preview of the new site (which is set to launch Tuesday 18^th Oct!) and walked us through the added functions such as the image reference search facility and light-box feature on our image library, allowing you to select images as you go and download them all at the end, much like an online ‘shopping cart’. Sara then discussed the fantastic new blog, which (as you know), is being updated regularly to inform you of all the news from us. Last but not least, Daisy gave everybody a run down of the new Atom twitter account (@Atommpr).

Soon after this and a brief thank you from Roger Illsley, Atom’s MD, it was time to depart from the GHI and take the short walk to The Source Below bar where the drinking and karaoke commenced with all attendees in tow. There we were joined by further media seniors from IPC, Conde Nast and BBC Magazines. The singing was, surprisingly, at a very high standard! Special mentions go to Zoe from BBC, Shakil from House Beautiful and of course our very own singing sensation, Roger.

The day (and night) was absolutely wonderful, and it seems that was the consensus all round as the phones have been ringing off the hook this week with thank-yous and reminiscent stories of the day. It was great to see all the clients that were able to attend and to those who couldn’t make it, we’ll have to catch up next time… Christmas is soon, right?

A big thank you to everybody that made the day such a hit.

Welcome & Client Day

Very exciting times here in the Atom office! With a shiny new website on the horizon we have also added a range of social media features to run alongside, ensuring you’re kept up to date with all our latest news. You can now follow us on twitter by clicking here @atommpr and of course read this lovely new blog. Here we will update you on new clients, new products and all the gossip from the Atom office.

We have recently welcomed a few new Atomites on board, The Odd Chair Company, The Furniture Barn and Lazy Susan. Their beautiful roomsets and cutout images are soon to be gracing our online image library ready for you to download straight to your desktop.

This week, here in the office, we have been extremely busy getting everything ready for the Atom Client Day in association with Natmags. We’re all looking forward to seeing our lovely clients, unfortunately not all can make it and those that can’t will be dearly missed!

We have all purchased new items of clothing for the day (even Roger) to ensure we are looking sharp! Daisy & Sara have even had their hair done for the occasion. Clearly a fancy affair.
We shall be sure to update you with how the evening goes.
