On Thursday 25th May over 100 Norfolk Chamber members joined us at Caistor Hall for a morning of networking with a delicious breakfast and a presentation from Charlie Gauvain, Managing Director at Eye Film.
Jonathan Cage, President of Norfolk Chamber, hosted the morning. Members started off the morning with an ice breaker game of ‘Business Bingo’. This involved the guests deciding among them who fulfilled 9 statements on a bingo sheet, from personal to business facts. The members where then invited to take part in Safari Move, in order to meet and talk with new members. A delicious breakfast was then served and members got a chance to speak to the people they were sat with.
To introduce more networking before we had Charlie’s presentation, we had a ‘Guess the Advert’ quiz, where guests worked in teams to guess which brand was behind some notorious adverts in order to highlight the influence of stand-out video advertising.
Charlie Gauvain then took to the floor to emphasise the importance of an effective video strategy for your business. He suggested that it isn’t always necessary to hire a professional to create video marketing and gave some hints and tips for the business members present about how they could create their own material. He also explained when the best time to call in a professional might be. A few of the guests engaged in a practical demonstration of how best to film video testimonials, and the common pitfalls to avoid.
Following Charlie’s presentation, Jonathan started a Q&A between the delegates and Charlie to help them get a better understanding of how they can use these tips within their own businesses. After this had finished many delegates stayed and networked with their existing contacts and also the new ones they had made that day.
