Birthday Celebrations!

Hellooooo, if you follow us on Twitter or you are a fan of us on Facebook, then you already know that yesterday, 6th May 2010 was Browns Chauffeur Hires' 30th Birthday. 3000 of you received our newsletter on Wednesday evening stating how we would be celebrating. Our Newsletter goes out once a month and always has some great promotions on it. Last month we joint up with Le Caprice Restaurant in central London for 'Browns Champagne Sundays'. If you want to receive great offers such as this, please join our mailing list on the right or click here

The offers that we gave out on our Birthday were a great success. To start off, we gave a massive 30% discount on all jobs booked on the day. The 30th passenger on the day received a free upgrade and the 30th phone call received a bottle of Champagne. Throughout the day we were giving out on the spot gifts through Twitter and Facebook and at 15:06 an alarm sounded in the office which signified the time that the company was registered 30 years ago. The person who was on the phone to us at this moment won a lovely bottle of Champagne.

The picture above shows John and Peter (the company owners) with the company registration form and the first ever pound note that the company earned. The registration form is dated 6th May 1980. 1 year before I was born!

So, now to what I have been up to this week. I am close to completing the update on our website, it's looking great. It's now going to have an events page that you can see what events are on in the UK and even gives you capability to buy tickets for them. There are updated links to Facebook, Twitter and the charities we support, an Environment page, which shows our Carbon Neutral Certificate, a careers page and an updated affiliates page. The biggest change is that our website will now have the capability to take bookings. I think it will be ready to go live within two weeks.

I have also just completed the purchase of 500 celebratory Eco friendly Birthday bags that we will be giving away very soon. There is already a great demand for them, so start being nice to me if you want one ;-)

Well, the week is coming to an end, it's been a great week for us here. Celebrating 30 years of service is an outstanding achievement and may there be another 30 years to come.

Once again, if you need anything over the weekend, please do not hesitate to call. Alexis is working in the control room, he is always more than happy to help with anything.

Have a great weekend,

George x
