FairMail en televisión

miércoles, octubre 23rd, 2013

Hace unas semanas FairMail apareció en los nuevos programas de televisión holandesa «Grensverleggers«. El canal de televisión nacional de negocios cubre empresarios holandeses que ejecutan sus empresas sociales en el extranjero para crear un impacto social.

El episodio de 12 minutos sobre FairMail muestra a los adolescentes que toman imágenes de Ben & Jerry de tarjetas de Navidad corporativas en la playa, viajando en un viaje de fotografía en la selva peruana y uno de los fundadores de FairMail trata de convencer a  clever de 15 años  para dejar de trabajar, ganar dinero con FairMail y volver a la escuela. Qué piensas? Va a tener éxito?

Mira todo el episodio aqui:

Helping out FairMail

Helping out FairMail

Dare to Ask is a popular phenomenon in the Netherlands based on the idea that when people ask for what they truly want, the chances they will actually get it increases considerably. After all, there are plenty of people that are more than happy to help you along in realizing your dream. Imagine all the missed opportunities of people being happy to share exactly what you need for free, but not doing it because they didn’t have a clue you were looking for it. The scale of missed opportunities on a global level is huge! Dare to Ask makes “social surplus” visible and put it to good use.

In other words; why not share with FairMail what you don’t use and ask for what you could use that FairMail might have “lying around”? Below you can find a list of things FairMail could use that perhaps you can help us find:

– PR and Marketing advise. We could use the help of a professional PR agency to help us make our promotional activities more effective. We have a great story to tell, but how do we get it out there?

– Video of FairMail teenagers. On our new website (coming soon!) we want to include a personal video about each FairMail teenager on their personal profile page. Who would like to dive into their lives and tell their personal stories in short 1 minute videos?

– Volunteer Photography Trainers in Peru. The FairMail team in Peru is looking for enthusiastic volunteers with a passion for photography, who speak Spanish and have 6 weeks to give photography training in Peru. Do you know anyone looking for this enriching experience?

–  Television and media contacts. For our upcoming promotion tour with the two Peruvian FairMail teenagers we are looking for journalists and other media contacts in Germany, France, Belgium, The Netherlands and Switzerland.

– Things to do for our teenagers during Promotion tour. For our upcoming promotion tour with the two Peruvian FairMail teenagers we are looking for places to visit and people to guide us. Places that are interesting for the teenagers to see (schools, cities, landmarks), but also places where they can promote their cards (festivals, shops, fair trade towns). Do you live in Germany, France, The Netherlands, Belgium or Switzerland and would you like to help make this the teenagers’ trip of a life time, then please get in contact with us!

Dhiraj giving a television interview in Wurzburg

Dhiraj giving a television interview in Wurzburg

From the 11th of June until the 3rd of July FairMail organized its third European promotional tour. Guest of honor during the 3 week road trips was FairMail India Photographer Dhiraj Kannaujia. FairMail invited him to come to Europe to tell the unique story behind his cards and to learn more about his greeting card market.

Both goals where achieved with success. Dhiraj gave no less than 12 interviews for the television, radio, newspapers and magazines in the Netherlands, Germany and France. To learn more about the market he visited 5 of FairMail’s publishers in the same countries plus Switzerland. During the tour we also visited business customers like the Dutch ethical ASN Bank, a consumer festival in the Netherlands and 5 FairMail selling points in Germany. In France Dhiraj presented FairMail during three regional meetings of the sales representatives of La Carterie who will be promoting their new range of ethical cards and calendar.
