NEXTGEN process, WEB PAGES AND APPLICATION FORM

We drafted the copy for the NEXTGEN pages on the WoodWhite website, the finalists' certificates, the application form and proposed a way of automating and storing the on-line applications and nominations, ready for judging.


designing the TROPHY

We designed the trophy and arranged for a craftsman to create it out of maple wood, which is a soft wood, easy to work with and unlikely to split when drilled for the acrylic tube that gives the impression that the WW is suspended above the base.


HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE 2022 EVENt at the roseate hotel, reading

We filmed key parts of the day and then edited seven films, transcribed the content, created subtitles and uploaded to a new showcase.


The transcribed copy was used to create two articles. One was a news release and circulated to the media and the second was an update to the key page on the WoodWhite Accountants website where people can keep track of the progress of the competition.


The results

Initial feedback from the finalists of the inaugural event have been amazing and we will be following the winner, James Eaton of IONETIC over 12 months.
