Amidst the ongoing Coronavirus crisis, there was an anniversary that whilst unimportant for many, meant a great deal to us. Having been helping clients since June 2017, Marengo Communications became three years old. Happy Birthday to us! We are all delighted to have achieved this milestone, and it is important to note our thanks to […]

The world has been turned on its head. We have a whole slew of new words and concepts (Social Distancing and Furlough are enough to be going on with) and we watch a daily rate of people passing away that would previously been considered as incomprehensible. We’ve settled into a new way of life and […]

A fascinating couple of years has passed and more and more I am persuaded that business is wholly about people. The team, the clients and of course, elected members and the community, each with their own personal agendas, perspectives ad emotions.

We like everyone else, have no idea what will happen next. Brexit has cast its murky shadow over everything. It is crowding out almost every idea and turned Theresa May’s government into a one-trick pony. There is perhaps one concession to this otherwise gloomy picture. James Brokenshire, the relatively new Secretary of State for Housing, […]

Have you ever watched Titanic 2? No? Me neither. Apparently, the film is one of the worst sequels ever made. Released in 2010, the film had a budget of $500,000 and the output reflected it by all accounts. The follow up is almost always harder than the original. It is rare you get a hit […]
