BDC Magazine - Our Happy Clients

2 April 2014

BD&C Magazine featuring 1 Angel Square The Co-operative were pleased to work with Kenneth on his article on our BREEAM outstanding building 1 Angel Square as we felt it would appropriately showcase our building in an acknowledged and respected industry publication, read by professional peers within the Estates and Property arena. We believe Kenneth captured the spirit of our interview in his initial draft and was open to further feedback on the accuracy and format of the draft and was amenable to further change until both Co-operative and Kenneth were satisfied with the final article in the spirit of a win-win approach. Kenneth's interview style was nonintrusive and as efficient as could be expected. We felt the final article presented our building in a positive way and would be of interest to readers.

_ Dear Kenneth, Subject: Siemens article in Building Design & Construction magazine This is just a quick line to thank you for commissioning the article on Siemens’ work in the field of metering and energy management, for publication in the September issue of your magazine.

Following the recent telephone interview conducted with me by Dan Stephens, I was impressed by the way in which the article focused on the key elements of what I was trying to convey and communicated them in an easy and accessible style, whilst at the same time conveying the importance and relevance of the topic to your readership. In particular, I liked the combination of business benefit and human interest angles in the final piece.

Not having had much direct experience of working with editors and journalists before, I was delighted with the end result and I know that colleagues have been impressed with the article also. I look forward to working with you and your team again on some future occasion, when the opportunity arises.

With best regards.

Yours sincerely,

Neil Merrall, Portfolio Manager, Smart Metering and Energy Management

Dear Sir Re - Building Design & Construction Magazine Retail Maintenance and Development Feature - September Issue 2011

I write to thank you for producing the Feature Article on Nationwide Property Services department in your September issue.

Your Feature Manager Kenneth Booth was very helpful and professional in the preparation of the article and I was very pleased with the quality, look and feel of both the finished magazine article and the separate brochure that was produced.

Whilst the initial intention was to focus on maintenance the skills employed to include the wider cross section of activities that Property Services and other departments in Nationwide are heavily involved in, I feel resulted in a very informative and well produced document.

The brochure will provide a useful tool in the departments’ ongoing communications strategy with both its Contractor base and Internal Customers.

Yours Sincerely

Richard Henman Richard Henman Supply Chain Manager
