Summer of sport sees increased sales…
“Pubs chain JD Wetherspoon has reported a sharp increase in sales thanks to the Euro 2012 football tournament and the Diamond Jubilee.
Like-for-like sales, which strip out the impact of sales from new and closed pubs, rose 6.1% in the 11 weeks to 8 July compared with a year earlier. Total sales were up 11.9%.”

Emotional Murray…
He did so well and even won the first set, but it wasn’t quite enough to beat one of the best tennis players of all time!
Murray gave and emotional and tearful speech to the Wimbledon crowd after losing the final to Roger Federer.
Now the count down is really on for the Olympics with no other distractions…18 days and counting!
Powerforce Field Marketing is also looking forward to an extremely busy period during the Olympics with many brands and client using Powerforce to get their products as much expose as possible.

So far so good!
Well England didn’t blow anyone out of the water but their was enough good spells and sparks of good attacking play to give fans a lot of confidence going in to the next match against Sweden on Friday.
The Powerforce field marketing team are a lot happier with the 7:45 kick-off time for the next match, 5 o’clock kick-offs just aren’t fair!
Lets all hope England can build on the solid start!

Welcome to the first post on our new Blog!
Everything is really hotting up now with the Olympics, with the torch finally touching down in the UK and starting its tour round the country. One man who disappointed not to be chosen to carry the flame attempted to join in the festivities by running behind the runner with the flame. He was quickly tackled to the floor by several burly members of the flame’s minder team. The flame is meant to have a team of around 300 supporting its journey, that’s more then Justin Bieber and David Beckham combined.
Brands around the UK are all jostling for prime positions in the run up to Olympics especially along the flame route and we are becoming a major player in this battle. Its going to be a very busy summer as we also have the Diamond Jubilee this combined with the Olympics will hopefully give a massive boost to our economy and might kicks start those green shoots of growth we have be promised for so long!
