Welcome to the end-of-year round-up. Keen readers among you will have noticed there wasn't a November newsletter but, when you read what we've been up to the last few weeks, you'll see why we got a little sidetracked! And, from chatting to clients and suppliers, it sounds like everyone has been busy during this Christmas lead-up.
We hope it's been the 'good kind' of busy for you all though and that you are able to switch into festive mode before too long before setting the 2023 wheels in motion :)

New digital panels in Birmingham, Manchester, Liverpool & Rotherham
|
|
Last month, we unveiled three new digital panels in the North: a Mega 6 on Leeds' M621, a D48 on Derby Road in Liverpool and not one but two screens on Sir Clive Sullivan Way, Hull.
Not content with these cracking three sites though, we have since added another FIVE digital panels to our growing portfolio: an unmissable D48 on the busy commuter Bury New Road, Manchester; an iconic D48 on Pottery Lane, close to Manchester City FC; a D48 on the multi-junction, high traffic Kingstanding Road, Birmingham; a sought-after D48 on Strand Road, Liverpool and a prime-location D48 on Taylor's Lane, Rotherham.
This flurry of new sites is not just for Christmas though. In 2023, our portfolio of classic, digital and RISE billboards is set to keep growing across the North, as well as in iconic towns and cities across the UK. We will let you know more as soon as new sites are confirmed but if you'd like chat further about our inventory, please drop Joe a line.

Another reason we've been a little MIA these last few weeks: we moved into a new office! Located on East Parade in Leeds city centre, this is the perfect base for us to continue growing and welcome new members of staff in 2023. Putting our roots down here has felt like a huge milestone for us as a business too: it's our first proper home since we launched in May 2020 and the move also signals the end of an often virtual existence via Zoom! If you are ever in the area, do pop in for a brew!

A year of tree planting with YDMT
|
|
|
|
Back in July, we headed to a woodland area near Hawes in the Yorkshire Dales to help clear plastic tree guards as part of YDMT's Plastic-Free Woodlands scheme.
|
|
|
Did you know we have a charity partner? Since summer 2021, we have been working with the Yorkshire Dales Millennium Trust (YDMT) to support its Together for Trees project and we were delighted to reach our goal of planting 200 trees this year, helping to offset an estimated 33 tonnes of carbon over the next 50 years.
Our quarterly donations help YDMT to deliver a combination of tree planting schemes, woodland maintenance days and community outreach projects. Projects such as these are all aimed at helping combat climate change, reduce flooding, reduce CO2 emissions, provide homes for wildlife and, collectively, improve the health and wellbeing of everyone in the area.
In 2023, we will be upping our support even further. As well as tree planting and woodland maintenance, we will also be helping YDMT restore vitally important hay meadows and improve wildflower-rich habitats in the Yorkshire Dales in order to significantly increase biodiversity in the area.

2023 is going to be a big year for 75Media. Some of the things we're particularly excited about and which we're already beavering away on are:
- In January, we will be welcoming two new members of staff to the team. We will share more about our brilliant new recruits next month but needless to say our sales and operations departments will be all the better for this workforce boost!
- Our Operations Director, Alex, has been working hard on this for months but in January, we will be live on Route meaning we will be able to provide up-to-date and highly accurate audience demograhics for our portfolio of sites.
- Speaking of our portfolio, we are aiming to add an additional eight digital and 52 classic roadside billboard sites to our inventory in Q1. Thank goodness for a growing team too!
- By the end of February, our new website will also be live. Not only will it offer an improved user experience, it will also provide a launchpad for our new brand direction, one which echoes more closely who we are as a business and what we do.

And that's a wrap! All that remains is for us to wish you a wonderful Christmas and a happy, healthy and prosperous New Year!
We'll see you in 2023 :)
