Over 600 artists showing work in more than 370 venues to 125,000 visitors generating over £1 million of sales. That’s Dorset Art Week. It’s one of the county’s cultural highlights and relies on a highly effective marketing programme to draw the crowds and make the money. This year was the 10th biennial event and will hopefully be the most successful ever with the help of a powerful, fully integrated promotional campaign from the team at Fathom.
We created a strong visual identity that appeared throughout the county and UK through, signage, press advertising, posters and a striking, completely content managed website which artists could individually access to update their own entries. The excitement and buzz of the festival were perfectly captured in our 160 page Booklet – a publication that needed to be as functional as it was attention-grabbing. 40,000 copies of the mag were printed, with all production managed by Fathom.

Fathom celebrated Christmas this year with the ultimate rebranding exercise - Santa Claus. Clients, friends and families of Fathom were given the task of rebranding a stripped bare Santa with a plethora of stickers, glitter, cotton wool, baubles and crafty bits. They were then invited to send pictures of their proposed Santa rebrands where the Fathom elves deliberated and discussed their achievements.
The response rate of 35% was outstanding with all ages submitting stunning works of art.
Thank you to everyone involved.

This multi-touch, multi-media campaign is best summed up by this quote from the client;
“We wanted to put together a direct marketing programme that really raised the bar in terms of catching initial attention and subsequently creating a strong impressions in the minds of the most senior executives in our market.
Fathom not only came up with an attractive and sophisticated multi-touch programme entitled “Secret Agent”, but also executed a complex project project plan within timescales that would be impossible without immense hard work, competence and focus. They delivered every single piece of the project, from hiring of actors, to directing video, to sourcing video players, all the way through to designing and producing the printed matter and web microsite in just a few short weeks.
The results, when coupled with focused telemarketing, have been impressive – very high response rates and numerous meetings at the most senior level. We even had one Group CTO call to ask why his Regional CTO had got a Secret Agent package and he had not!”

The new Arena Group website along with four divisional sites, launched in August, is a great example of design that’s search-engine friendly and easy on the eye.
Designed to echo the user-friendly structure of the BBC website, the home page streams news and products from each of the Group’s divisions: Arena Seating, Structures, Store and Middle East. From here, readers can rapidly find the core information they want.
This simplicity and usability is complemented by a number of dynamic elements. Moving images on key pages, news updates, video archiving and an RSS feed all help make the site engaging and ‘sticky’, encouraging visitors to click in on a regular basis.
Alongside this sleek design and usability is the site’s outstanding SEO. The live news feeds and depth of content have all pushed the site up the rankings and yielded some excellent results.
31 October 2009
It’s been nearly six months since the Fathom’s Easter update, and there’s plenty of news to squeeze in. These may be scary times for the economy, but Fathom (like Jamie Lee Curtis in Halloween) is going strong. With five new clients in the corporate and retail sectors, Fathom has built on its firm foundations. This has included the launch of six new websites and five refreshed brands.
15 September 2009
The International Sailing Federation’s (ISAF) annual awards are the pinnacle of any sailor’s achievement – a recognition of exceptional feats on the open seas.
For this year’s event in South Korea, Fathom worked with ISAF and Rolex to give the occasion a touch of class. The full suite of event collateral was developed using gold ink and tactile cotton stock to create a prestigious, authentic feel.
To add depth to the design, we translated the phrase ‘Celebrating a year of sailing excellence’ into Korean and created a subtle watermark for all materials.
The main prize for the event, held next month, is an exclusive Rolex watch, so the design has to exude the same quality, workmanship and sense of timeless quality. The results did not disappoint.

Chelsea based property developers Albyns only develop in Chelsea. They take the most attractive properties and turn them into exquisite homes. That’s multi-multi million plus homes. After working with Fathom’s MD, Nigel Parsons, in a previous life, Charlotte Moffat, co-founder of Albyns, tracked him down to the seaside at Bournemouth and commissioned the team to create a complete set of marketing materials for her business. It’s a project that’s just started and will be ongoing for some time – but so far our work has generated an elegant new identity and some luxurious stationery featuring foils printed on beautiful stock. A stunning website and property albums are currently being developed after an extensive photo-shoot that helped establish an image library of Albyns work. When it comes to property, no one understands the importance of creating the right impression than Fathom.

Actix helps wireless network operators with technology and expertise that enhance services and reduce costs. In this market, new customer acquisition is a difficult job and purchase decisions are made at the very top of the management chain. Marketing activities therefore have to be highly targeted, totally relevant and completely engaging. So when Actix wanted to raise their profile amongst potential customers, Fathom knew that something special was needed. That’s why we developed a series of four direct mail pieces specifically aimed at CEOs of mobile networks – each piece communicating a different business case for taking a closer look at what Actix had to offer. Simple messaging and visually compelling, original illustrations, all produced in-house, were used to make the key points clearly and convincingly.

The result is a substantial 40 page site that’s beautifully designed, and fully content managed throughout.

Sienna and Auburn are two remarkable new properties from Towncourt. Built in the style of the Bauhaus era, these £1.5 million four bedroom homes, located in one of the most desirable areas of the country, epitomise style, quality and luxury. As part of our strong, ongoing relationship with Towncourt, Fathom was briefed to develop marketing and promotional materials for the development. Our approach was to devise a brochure that created individual identities for each home through clean, impactful design and the use of interesting, advanced printing techniques including foils and varnishes. The result? A look that stands out as much as the properties themselves. The brochure was accompanied by stunning local and lifestyle press advertising.

Melville, the UK’s top all services exhibition provider, for event organisers and exhibitors. From stand structures and electrics, to floor coverings and furniture, Melville leads the way in design, product and service excellence. Melville Live was staged at London’s Excel, and was created to showcase the company’s huge variety of leading edge exhibition solutions.

They briefed Fathom to rename and update their leading brand, Flagstone, positioning it as a product for the 21st century. Our response involved extensive research and creative workshops designed to generate a brand name that had to be modern, unique, evocative and exciting, as well as being available as .com and .co.uk urls. The process resulted in the name ‘Eclypt’, and we’re now applying the new identity we have created to a totally new suite of literature, stationery, sales materials and packaging.

For Arena Group, the UK’s largest event services company, the annual Showman’s Show is an important opportunity to display products and meet customers. It’s Britain’s most prestigious exhibition of products, services for the outdoor and event world, so creating the best display environment is essential. Fathom designed a breathtaking stand for Arena, 30m x 20m, split into two contrasting but complementary areas – the ‘i–Zone; for all the Group’s new products and innovations, and a more relaxed ‘Comfort Zone’; for meetings and discussions. In addition to creating all the branding, graphics and messaging, we also produced 12 plasma screen presentations covering each individual subject area, and were rewarded by taking the prize of Best Stand in Show.

Successfully carrying a new corporate brand through to individual product level can be a tricky business – especially when there are nine products to consider. After being asked to assess the positioning and presentation of Actix products, Fathom recommended merging and consolidating the range to six, simplifying customer choice and improving the effectiveness of marketing communication. Each product is now a consistent part of a family thanks to the creation of sub-brand identities that provide individual differentiation through colour and photography - all in a common corporate style.

Fathom devised an extensive programme of research using brand workshops to help develop a fresh modern look for Actix around the world. And with the assistance of a special working group, the exercise led to the creation of a hugely impactful dynamic, three-dimensional identity.

A comprehensive set of brand and design guidelines has been established, and the new identity was launched to staff around the world in nine different offices with booklets explaining the company’s vision and branding strategy. Fathom has now applied the look across a wide range of materials from stationery, brochures and corporate presentations to splash screen design, an intranet – and even paper clips.

After completing a stunning new development of 20 individually styled apartments in the highly desirable Talbot Woods area of Poole, Towncourt turned to Fathom for advice on marketing the properties.

The Event Show at Olympia attracts the highest concentration of event professionals in the country, so exhibitors need to stand out in a very crowded environment. As market leaders in event services, Arena Group wanted to make a big impact. Fathom’s response was to create an impressive 4 x 10m exhibition display, complete with a huge inflatable cube floating above the stand, so Arena wouldn’t be missed. This was supported with a branded balloon drop competition, multimedia presentations, product literature and newsletters.
