Smarter working 2014: Eggnogg

‘In order to grow the company, I made the decision to invest in putting people in place that were better at the jobs I wasn’t good at’

PH01 Colour-in Party Hat - Pirate A

Name: Eggnogg

Based: Bristol

Website: www.eggnogg.co.uk

Eggnogg specialises in award-winning colour-in products for children.

Like many small businesses I started Eggnogg by taking on every part of the business myself. When the business had a huge growth spurt a couple of years ago, I realised I was getting snowed under with everything. The phrase ‘Jack of all trades, master of none’ came to mind.

In order to grow the company, I made the decision to invest in putting people in place that were better at the jobs I wasn’t good at. Once I’d let go of those areas of the business, which was difficult at first, it allowed me to dedicate myself to the part I really enjoyed – the product design – leaving the sales, marketing, accountancy, PR and fulfilment to the professionals!

As a result, the business is running much more efficiently with a higher turnover and increasing profitability.

Behind the scenes…..

Here’s a sneak peak behind the scenes at our PR product shoot this week. With photographer, Silkie from Rosehip, and Gina from Fable Media.

Early morning and the sun is shining. With tipi, picnic blanket and props in hand we headed to a lovely cottage garden.

We picked a green corner of the garden with evergreens and relatively green grass and dressed the set.  With our lovely little model in place we had created a beautiful #colouringin picnic on a nippy March day.  Watch this space for the fabulous results!

Happy Spring-time!

My lovely friend’s father always told me to spend a few minutes every day leaning up against the garden gate and simply observe life. I did just that this morning and admired these colourful little chaps who had just popped out on the hill near work. There wasn’t a garden gate to lean unfortunately but some black railings did the trick.  It will soon be warm enough to observe life from the comfort of our Colour-in Picnic Blanket.  Always stop for a few minutes a day and watch the world go by.
