Unfortunately a month ago Gavin Elliott, carrotmedia’s creative director left the company. Gavin had been taking a creative lead on the project so control had to be passed over to our new designer. We’re thrilled to be working with Ryan Downie (@ryandownie), Carrot Media’s new designer to develop both Eliot Turner and the Ecommerce Experiment.
The handover unfortunately delayed some of the activity on both the blog and the Eliot Turner website. A change of designer meant that we had to handover all client projects at carrotmedia which is a huge task. We’re really grateful here at Carrot for all the help Gavin has given us getting the project up and running. We wish him well with his new endeavours!
It’s always hard to lose a key member of staff and as a small business owner it can seem difficult to see the way forward. Fortunately this is not the first time I’ve lost a key member of staff and being a realist it won’t be the last. It’s always important to let the dust settle for a few days before you start drawing up a plan as you don’t want to allow emotion to rule what should be a sound business decision.
We’re pleased to report Ryan is now fully integrated into our team and it’s business as usual at carrotmedia HQ.
