We Fondly Call It SEO, You May Know It As Search Engine Optimisation, Whatever You Want To Call It We Are Great At It

Not long ago Wired Sussex were due to hold the ‘Make it into Media’ event, which was being held at the Corn Exchange, Brighton and Fresh Egg had been invited to attend.  Although it wasn’t advertised as a jobs fair, media companies from all over Sussex were featured and it was great because anyone could pop in to get advice about the industry and possibly pick up a few contacts.

The HR manager Annie Marshall and I set up a stand at the event and about midway through the day I took to the stage to give a presentation on how I got into Search Engine Optimisation and to give my advice on the best paths into the industry.

Now we all know that the East Sussex town of Brighton is well known for it’s number of creative and media talent gurus.   But even so, both Annie and I were blown away by the energy and enthusiasm that the attendees displayed.  Many of the attendees were youngsters looking to break into the media world, but surprisingly, there were also a number of older industry people, many looking at how to make the transition from print to digital and some just fascinated by the whole new world of ‘new media’.

What really amazed me was just how hungry many of the job seekers were and how they really wanted to establish themselves in a new media sphere by basically working their socks off.    Almost instantly after the doors were opened, the Fresh Egg stand was swamped by people wanting to learn not only more about our company, but also about Web Design, SEO, digital development and our fantastic new hatchling CallTrackID™ The interest didn’t let up all morning and it was a very constructive day, not only for Fresh Egg, but for everyone else involved in the whole event.
