Probably a good example of the editorial and advertising/promotions desks pursuing different agendas and failing to talk to each other.

Quote ="windy one 2010"I am sure the fella said first of many visits. Lets hope so. from small acorns and all that'"
He was a freelance who was hoping to sell a short piece to the ES or Metro. It would only have been a couple of sentences with a quote from a newby on how good the game was, but he obviously didn’t manage to convince editorial to run it.
To his credit he did put in an awful lot of effort to brief himself and talk to as many people as possible. Ten minutes after half time he was worried when he saw a number of freebies leaving but in the end he saw that the vast majority who stayed were happy to have come. He was particularly surprised and impressed by the number of passionate and knowledgeable southerners he came across, having believed only northerners had any affinity with the game and he was quite taken with the away crew angle (small group regularly invading northern strongholds.) So even though nothing came of this particular evening it could lead to stories down the track.
An interesting by-product of the ES exercise is that it jogs the memory of oldbies and lets a vast number of people know that RL is alive and kicking in the metropolis. One guy told us he was prompted to put in an appearance again having been reminded by the advert how good was the matchday experience down at the Stoop. That effect might account for a very small number but how many more people were made aware by the advert that RL exists in London? Just getting it into people’s consciousness has got to be worth something.
Congrats to PP on his excellent bit of PR work on the Comeallwithin board.

Probably because the game was rubbish and they fancied going to the pub instead.

Haow many is "loads"?
Seriously......I am slightly worried that after about 1,000 people or so requested freebies that the club has yet to contact them directly and ask them what they thought. An email should have been built "before' the game kicked off and the email sent as soon as the final hooter went.......IMO that is

getting anything in ES is a start......I would have suggested that a "snide' letter from a "newbie" to the sports editor at ES thanking them for the great free offer and how much of a great time was had by all...........ego boosting and fawning, but probably would have been printed
Journalists have bigger egos that Sales people

I got a email to say I'd "won" and my tickets where on route.
I suspect the way that the tickets where dispatched, tickets in envelope with address label stuck on meant that the tickets issued and redeemed on the matchday were not traceable as I suspect they didn't record which "guest" received which tickets, making a "targetted" follow up survey to those "guests" attending impossible.
As for no coverage in the paper, I can understand that space in the physical copy is limited but to find no follow up article on their website was to say a tad disappointing.
But as Morcheeba sang "Rome wasn't built in a day.".
Keep the faith.

Seems that they will now be making efforts to capture some data, I received this e-mail last night....
=#BF0000Following on from the successful promotion we did through the Evening Standard for the Castleford Tigers game, we are asking you, as a valued Season Ticket holder, to help us.
We are inviting you to bring a friend along to the Salford City Reds game on Saturday 30th April which kicks off at 18.00 here at The Stoop.
To get your ticket for your friend, all you need to do is exchange Voucher No 5 from your season ticket booklet for a match ticket. This can be done on the day by visiting the Ticket Office at Gate 3 from 16:00.
As we look to build our supporter base that will hopefully in time grow our attendance figures, we need to capture your friend’s data. Therefore we are asking your friend to write his/her details on the back of the voucher which must include name, address, telephone number and email address.
We are looking forward to seeing you and your friends at the Salford game and ask you all to please support this promotion. Should you have any queries please contact us on 0871 527 1325 or info@quinsrl.co.uk
Many thanks
Gus Mackay

Recieved from the evening standard:
THANK YOU for participating in the Quins RL ticket offer with the Evening Standard last week. Over 2,000 supporters attended the game at the Twickenham Stoop last Friday evening. With the great weather, top Super League opposition and a thrilling climax at 26 - 26, Quins RL - 'London's only Super League Club' - provided a memorable night and there's more to come.
Harlequins would like to welcome you back to more action at their 'Summer at the Stoop' season. Tickets can be purchased by calling 0871 527 1315 - Adults from £15 and Juniors from £5.
They would also welcome your feedback, and would be grateful if you could take part in a very short survey.
All who take part will be entered into a prize draw to win a Guest Box for 10 people at a forthcoming Quins RL home fixture at the Twickenham Stoop.
Click here to participate in the survey.
For all QuinsRL fixtures click here

Think the quoted figure of 2000 might be referring to the ES take up, as we know official attendance was over 4

I received the same email as sogspurs above yesterday (26 April). Upon completing the short survey it said the deadline for entering the prize draw was Sunday 24 April and the winner would be informed during w/c 25 April.
Oh dear. Looks like the Standard sat on the survey for a few days before sending it out. Either way, I hope if the club are aware of this they extend the deadline for the prize draw to the end of this week.

Today I have recieved a message from postmaster@quins.co.uk....................... saying that my message has failed to be delivered!!
Does this mean that my message has not got to anyone at Quins RL????????
Admittedly I did use the "contact us" link from the Corporate Hospitality link. But that does beg the question any prospective sponsor using this link for further info is their message getting through to Quins RL????
