Michael Fisher,
managing director of one of the top 5 UK design agencies outside London - Linney Design in Mansfield - will be the guest speaker at the
next Friar Gate Studios networking evening on Wednesday 4th
April.
Michael will talk about how he built up Linney’s design business from just one employee – himself – to a team of over 70 people servicing clients including McDonalds, Yamaha Europe, Molson Coors and Waterstones. Michael’s presentation should be valuable for anyone running their own design or creative services business who would like to learn from the experiences of a successful regional agency.
Michael will talk about the changes affecting business and the growing pressure marketeers are under to deliver more products to more markets through more channels. Showing examples of Linney campaigns, he will talk about how his agency helps its clients responds to these pressures by taking an integrated approach – providing everything from conceptual brand consultancy and design, to advertising, film production, digital and print.
Michael will discuss winning new business, managing client relationships and developing new services. He will also talk about the leadership and management issues which underpin a successful company, including the importance of culture and values, and of developing people and teams.
Linney Design is part of the £75 million Linney Group, a family business founded in 1851 which also includes print and distribution services. Linney Group is located on a 33-acre purpose-built site in Mansfield, North Nottinghamshire. Michael Fisher sits on the executive board of the Linney Group. More information at www.linney.com
