  • To fool or not to fool... A tale of April Fools' Day blogging
    To fool or not to fool... A tale of April Fools' Day bloggingThe year was 2016. The date was April 1st. The product was accounting software, and the company was IRIS, the UK's market-leading providers of accountancy technology.

  • The 12 Days of IRIS Christmas (A Blog Series)
    The 12 Days of IRIS Christmas (A Blog Series)During 2016's festive season, I was briefed on creating a lighthearted blog series that tied IRIS's key campaigns, considerable product range and yearly highlights into a neat, Christmassy bow. The end result was 'The 12 Days of IRIS Christmas', a month-long blog series released over the course of December 2016 and that consisted of 12 individual blogs, each focusing on a different aspect of the IRIS story. The series began with Day 1 (obvs): 'On the 1st day of Christmas, a client brought to me: a shoebox full of receipts...' The post featured a case study on Claus Industries and its jolly CEO, zeroing in on how using accounting software can come in handy all year round for a company that immense. You can read the 1st blog here, and find the ensuing 11 at the bottom of the page. Happy reading!
