Panasonic Promoter Feels the Force!

3
The Force was definitely "with" Channel Advantage's Panasonic TV promoter Nick Johnson in Lakeside last weekend as characters from the cult film Star Wars invaded the shopping centre.

The Star Wars promotion generated huge interest at the Currys Lakeside store and the Force was also strong in Nick who generated record sales for the campaign to date in the store.

We asked Nick about the experience and he said: “I got ambushed by four guys with laser guns outside the store at lunch time (exhibit A). Then I was held hostage for a while by a big guy (exhibit B). But thankfully got rescued by a friendly robot (exhibit C)”.

Despite all the adventure Nick conscientiously completed his reporting and made sure that the Account Team would note: “Our promoter at Lakeside getting stopped and seen to by the Imperial Forces, but thankfully rescued by the Alliance”.

Well done Nick - and keep up the good work!

Whilst we cannot guarantee this level of excitement every weekend, we do have fantastic clients and great opportunities available. If you are interested in joining Channel Advantage as a product demonstrator or promoter, email your CV, location (galaxies near and far, far away) and availability details to booking@channel-advantage.co.uk - we still have some fantastic pre-Christmas roles to fill.
