Due to the 10 year anniversary of RLB coming up very soon, with every UK office having a small party this takes a lot of planning and organising.
Cards have to be sent to every employee (457) this also included printing off labels of very employee, I did this using mail merge of word something I had never done before.
An event is being held in Manchester next week, this needed to have a statement cake, considering we are based in London, all we could go off was pictures and websites on the internet, making it hard to know the real quality. Searching over the internet the type we wanted was a number cake similar to the one Lola's Cupcakes provide however do not have a store in Manchester. Calling main companies and freelancers, in which many didn't make cakes to the scale we wanted, we finally found someone who could produce a 20" number 10 cake by next Wednesday.
Due to planning many parties in the past such as my 18th Birthday and enjoying doing so, I was surprised to find this fit into the criteria of marketing due to not really thinking about it before. Considering I'm not doing events management as a module in my degree, it will be more general knowledge I am using rather than facts and figures.
