Accelerate - Roller Coaster Day by Agency Folk (5th Sept)

Agency Folk - Accelerate - Roller Coaster Day!

Buckle up for an adrenaline-packed day at Thorpe Park with a bunch of friendly agency leaders.

You’ll climb the UK’s tallest lift hill on Hyperia, brave a beyond-vertical drop on SAW, and come face-to-face with a volcanic beast on Nemesis Inferno.

We call it ‘netcoastering’. It’s going to be a leg-dangler, a scream-inducer, and a guaranteed mind-opener.

Why should you take time out and join us?

🎢 Running an agency can feel chaotic and stressful. Burn off some steam with us on the country’s most acclaimed rides (including the UK’s fastest and highest roller coaster!)

🎢 Sharing experiences, especially white-knuckle experiences, is a great way to build bonds. You’ll meet and connect with lovely agency folk - who know exactly what it’s like to be in your shoes.

🎢 Learn creative, out-of-the-box marketing and branding strategies that will help make your agency ‘the only’ and boost your revenue.

🎢 Take inspiration from the coasters. Themed roller coasters serve great lessons in storytelling, customer loyalty, emotional marketing, and escapism. We’ll show you how to apply this in your agency business. Probably while waiting in-line for doughnuts.

🎢 Conquer your fear of coasters! If you’re a nervous rider, this is the perfect opportunity to dive right in. Neely Khan, one of the hosts of this event, is a rollercoaster expert, who’ll calm your nerves in no time.

Also included:

📝 A coaster itinerary for the day (designed for an epic balance of G force and head spins)

📕 A free guide filled with branding and marketing tips for your agency, as inspired by the attractions at Thorpe Park.

We already know you’re a thrillseeker (because running an agency is definitely not for the tame). So, register your interest today for more information, and we’ll come back to you asap with more details.
