Thank you letter

10th May 2008

I really don’t know how to thank your company for supporting our ‘cancer crusade’ with such enthusiasm. I suspect the advertising world would consider ‘Redgrave Partners’ ejected cartridges, that flashed past our eyes, as slightly subliminal. However, I hope the combination of the advert in the brochure, the huge banners and my public vote of thanks helped to spread the word of the new ‘brand’. What I do know, having received over 200 emails and letters, was this was a much appreciated, hugely entertaining and financially successful day. I can not thank you enough and if and when my team moves you have my business!
