Our amazing team have done it again! This time we are finalists in the European Search Awards, in their ‘Best Use of Search – Not for Profit’ category. This entry recognises our work for the David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation, and we hope this nomination will also raise further awareness for the charity.

Wow What a Year!

It’s been a year since Covid-19 and lockdown forced us all to pack up our desks and start working from home and what a year it has been! Although the past year has raised some serious challenges in all walks of life, it has truly been positive year for Innovation Visual. Our team has expanded, growing closer despite the geographical distance and we have reached the finals of many awards including the European Content Awards, The Global Digital Excellence Awards, The Drum Awards for Digital Agencies and The Global Agency Awards. We also won Gold at the International Business Awards! 

Since the move to remote working, we have seen a boost in productivity and morale across the team, who have been supported by our wellness initiative, so we have decided to make it a permanent arrangement. We have kept the office premises, which has allowed our team to come in to collaborate in person when necessary– socially distanced of course!
We wanted to maintain contact as a group whilst working remotely, so we have introduced daily “Huddles”, which allow the team to update each other on what they have been working on and also have non-work-related ‘water cooler’ conversations. This has encouraged the team to keep in contact, even if they are not all working together closely.

On 24 March we were lucky enough to host an event at which we had eminent scientist Professor Dave Goulson speaking. We were delighted that so many clients, partners, colleagues, friends and family joined us for what was a fascinating, funny and sometimes shocking talk. There were a lot of questions at the end and everyone agreed it was a great, and useful, evening. 

Hello I’m Ellen and I recently joined the wonderful team at Innovation Visual! I will be providing maternity cover for Jo Leeming-Sykes, Executive Assistant to the CEO, Tim Butler. Once Jo has returned from maternity leave, I am very much looking forward to continuing my digital marketing career as part of the IV delivery team. I am particularly excited about this role because of the diversity it offers; no two days are the same and I’ve been promised they never will be! I am very grateful for this opportunity, particularly during such challenging times.

We are incredibly excited that our team have been recognised once more for their hard work. This time, we have been nominated as finalists in The European Content Awards, in their ‘Charity Content Campaign of the Year’ category. We are especially thrilled because the entry that we prepared also focused on our client, The David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation, and this nomination, we hope, will only add to their visibility as an incredibly worthy cause.

For general reporting and analysis, the HubSpot built-in reports are great! We use them all the time at and they’ve become an invaluable tool for us to use daily. However, with a recent release, we’re now able to expand what we can do with our HubSpot data even further and we’re really excited about it.
