DLR Media prepares for growth with new appointment
DLR Media has appointed experienced commercial professional Keith Haggart as its Business Development Manager. Tayside based marketing and communications agency DLR Media has appointed an established sales expert as its Business Development Manager. Keith Haggart will lead the DLR Media sales function, focusing on the development of the company’s social media and content services as well as its branding and graphic design offering. Keith has almost 15 years’ experience in similar posts, managing local and national deals in business development and commercial roles. Best known for his time at Dundee United and then Dundee FC where he successfully led the growth of both Clubs’ commercial arms, Keith is one of only a handful of people to have been employed by both of the city’s football clubs and remain popular among both sets of supporters. Keith’s experience within the commercial sector of Scottish Football is a key advantage for DLR Media along with a well-respected network in the north east of Scotland area. DLR Media has seen a flurry of growth in the sports sector within recent months and this appointment reinforces the company’s commitment to the market.
Keith said: “I am delighted to be joining DLR Media at an exciting time in the development and growth of the business.” “The level of experience, expertise and creativity amongst the team is impressive. Having the right mix of knowledge and skills is crucial to the ongoing success of DLR Media. I am looking forward to settling into my new role and helping to develop the sales and commercial operation.” Daniel Rosie, Managing Director of DLR Media said: “Keith’s appointment is a key stage in our growth plans and is another significant step towards the DLR Media business becoming a significant player within the local and national market. “Appointing a well-known and experienced name to our team also affirms our commitment to providing a first-class service to our clients. “Keith’s experience is exceptional, and we are thrilled he has joined the team as Business Development Manager at such an important time for us as we deliver our phased plan to further improve and expand our offering to clients.”
We are built on a “people and team” ideology. House of Aristocrats is a Dundee based fashion and lifestyle designer label. On our first, successful public appearance at “Dundee pride extravaganza 2019” we decided to demonstrate how a modern fashion house should work, as a team with the consumer, by appreciating individual beauty from people and bringing them together. The fashion collection was inspired by the meaning of the LGBT flag colours and by blending inspirations from the designers’ gay journey into the dress details. To spread the message of self-love, acceptance and looking beyond what our eyes can see, we opened our first pride fashion campaign to public, volunteer models with different ethnicities, colour, heights, body form, profession, sexuality and identities, making it all inclusive and personal for people. Followed by consent for participation, fitting trials and explaining individual themes for the photo-shoot we were not surprised, but amazed to see the
final results. The photoshoot succeeded in showing the idea of making customised fashion, which is not just following a trend but also reflecting individual personality in its details. Most of the time we see a specific form of beauty on television or media which does not cater to our individual needs. Contradicting this rule by saying no to body-shaming and promoting self-acceptance, Aristocrats is open to working with the client as a team from daily wear to bridal couture.
