First Week at GSP

Week One at GSP
Monday 15 April 

Today was my first day at GSP and as always on your first day it's just about getting to know the business. I was shown around the office and shown how to use the phone and all the relevant numbers I would need to know.

Here is an example of the phone list and all the relevant information i was shown:

I was then given the task of putting together a PowerPoint of all their different options of entertainment from artists to aquabatix this was really interesting for me as i got to view all the different types of entertainment they offer for an event.

Here is an example of a slide within this PowerPoint of the Aquabatix they have used for a 16th Birthday 

This is another example of an unique type of entertainment of a 'Mocktail Bar Trolly'  which would appeal to women because topless models walk around serving them with them. 

Tuesday 16 April

Today was more of a boring time consuming job of deleting duplicate on a programme called Act. This is where they keep all their contact numbers, emails, and more of their clients. This gave me an overview of all their clients and i go to see who they had worked with previously. 

Here is an image of the programme 'Act' and how the programmes 

I also did another job today which was clearing out and sorting the boxes of their postcards that displays their previous events that they have done in the past, which they present to new clients in meeting so they get an overview of the company.

Wednesday 17 April 

Today I had an interesting task of researching the traditional order of a Jewish Wedding, with knowing where the toasts go and in what order and who does such things as the welcome speech. This was intriguing for me as I am Jewish so this would be the order of a wedding hopefully one day I will be having. I also found out a lot about a religious Jewish wedding that I never knew before.

After this I was given  the task of researching into their competitors Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and any other things social media sites they use. This was intriguing for me to see as I got an insight into what GSP are up against. 

Here are some examples of their good competitors

Friday 19 April

Today I got the interesting task of looking up celebrity agents on the website 'The Handbook' this is a useful website for me to use in the future as it has venues, celebrities, news and much more which allows anyone access information that you wouldn't normally be able to access. I used this to search for relevant English celebrities that would be of interest to GSP as possible clients, such as Amanda Holden and Fearne Cotton.

Here is a snapshot of what the website looks like:

After this is was asked to research into sugared Bride and Grooms to go on top of a wedding cake. This was a task I enjoyed as it was intriguing to see what options they had.

I had to find a blonde bride and a brown haired groom, although this may sound easy it was harder then I thought as a lot of the options were rather scary or freakish looking.

Here are examples of ones I had found for options:
