So with the British Monarchy valued at a cool £44 billion I thought it might be a good idea to see what that works out at in terms of revenue contribution by each member of the Royal Household. Apparently Buckingham Palace has 1,200 FT staff (450 of whom are paid for by the taxpayer), Sandringham a further 100 , Balmoral a further 50 FTE’s and 50-100 part-time staff. Windsor is a little harder to find data on but if you include The Royal Collection with a further 450 staff you are getting close to the 2,000 meaning each employee contributes £22 million to the UK economy – now to my mind that’s one hell of a contribution.

According to the CIPD the definition of an employer brand is " ...a set of attributes and qualities, often intangible, that makes an organisation distinctive, promises a particular kind of employment experience, and appeals to those people who will thrive and perform best in its culture". We believe strongly that effective investment in the creative management of your employer brand will reap significant rewards in being able to secure and retain exceptional talent who respond to your cultural environment.

Building a relationship with clients is by no means a simple task, it can’t happen overnight and it’s a journey where there are no quick fixes. Long term relationships take time to build, but it is through this building process that we can create a comfortable communication channel with the client, capturing their thoughts on all elements of product evolution and feeding this into their enhancement process. It’s not rocket science but these key communication skills do fail us from time to time.
