April 2021 - 7+ years On
7 Years In
Hi all,
Yes I mean all of those people that this blog post reaches and also choose to read it. But I do appreciate that there is so, so much content flying around in this day and age. If not personal, then certainly business. The breadth of posts I now see on Social Media is astounding (this included), and do wonder if all is read. In fact will this slip into the gutter? And this is meant as an honest and not snotty question. Anyway, if you choose to read this blog post, great and hope that you get something from it.
So, a recap. Where are we? Well, Found Us as a business is fine and we have re-launched the website and tweaked the logo. Why?
It is nice to refresh the website after 7 years of business.
It is nice to refresh the logo and style after 7 years of business.
I have time to do it; funnily enough due to a little something called Covid.
I could go on, but a key reason is to be reflective of the development of the business and of how our business has morphed over time to meet needs; well actually to reflect what we are happy doing. Sounds selfish, but not really as we do genuinely try and give our best to the people we deal with and we enjoy this.
Found Us was always about senior Head Hunting in the Advertising and Marketing arenas.
But it was always about Consultancy, Director, Sales, and Mentoring work; which we kept hidden away.
Now is the time to use the re-launch of the website to better reflect what we do, in fact what we love doing, and do well.
Gone for example is the list of candidates and jobs, as we are not a recruiter and this positioned us as one. And we like to think that we certainly offer services over and above “CV harvesting and spraying”.
Have a look at the new website to get an idea of what we do, and what we do well – we are passionate about it.
7 Years On…
It has been a tough time for a lot of people and businesses as of late. To think 7 years ago we would be 7 years old is an oddity, in what can be a ruthless, cramped, and Machiavellian marketplace. But here we are. We do genuinely think it is about our caring about what we do, and caring for the many, many people we have dealt with. And tenacity, luck, help, and maybe some Pixie Dust.
And as of late it has been tough, what with Brexit and Covid it is coming up to two years of hard trading I suspect for a lot of companies and people in this area of business; not everyone I hasten to add. All I can say is hang on in there as it will get better, and sometimes the size of the fight in a person is not always about picking yourself up after a fall, but just stoically plodding on. Change is universal, it is in fact life, and something to embrace. And whether we welcome or despise this depends on us.
The Universe is transformation; our life is what our thoughts make it.”
