Marketing city centre venues - a case study

We began working with The Varsity Club (TVC) in March 2018 on an initial 3-month project to ramp up their brand awareness, primarily on social media channels. The results? Increases in website traffic and user interactions from social media, and a stream of B2B events using the venue for the first time.

Drinks PR: Twisting Spirits gin chinks up a gin-tastic first year of craft distilling

Coconut worked with Twisting Spirits on a 9-month project from launch until they were too big for their distillery and need to buy somewhere bigger! That's a fairly resounding outcome, if ever there was one to pin on one of our most fascinating clients.

New client: Niche Retreats - a luxury travel launch from Original Cottages

Niche Retreats presents circa 200 UK holiday houses offering 'just a little luxury' and 'one of a kind' holiday accommodation. Every property is unique, the owners intentionally go the extra mile for their guests. These are no ordinary holiday cottages. But not all of them will break the bank either.
