Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
Where can I get some?
There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected humour, or randomised words which don’t look even slightly believable. If you are going to use a passage of Lorem Ipsum, you need to be sure there isn’t anything embarrassing hidden in the middle of text. All the Lorem Ipsum generators on the Internet tend to repeat predefined chunks as necessary, making this the first true generator on the Internet. It uses a dictionary of over 200 Latin words, combined with a handful of model sentence structures, to generate Lorem Ipsum which looks reasonable. The generated Lorem Ipsum is therefore always free from repetition, injected humour, or non-characteristic words etc.
The standard chunk of Lorem Ipsum used since
- Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum.
- Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going.
- The generated Lorem Ipsum is therefore always free from repetition, injected humour, or non-characteristic words etc.

The judges deliberated for many hours to decide who would make the prestigious list of finalists below. Many fell by the wayside at this stage, not because their entries were poor, but because those who remain are truly excellent.

Making sure that CCF’s customers are always aware of its top quality products and staff expertise is a number one priority for the marketing team. So, when we were tasked with supporting a significant investment in our insulation offering, it was clear that a promotional campaign was needed; to change perceptions and rightfully align CCF with exceptional insulation solutions, product choice, and availability.
Customer Lifecycle Campaign
At Gibbs & Dandy we pride ourselves on our customer-focussed strategy, which looks to ensure we are the most trusted builders’ merchant around. To help us achieve this goal, we wanted to make sure that our customers were happy with what we were doing and offering them. We wanted to talk to all our customers and this campaign focused on targeting those who had stopped trading with us – our lapsed and dormant accounts. We contacted these customers, asking them to provide feedback on why they were no longer buying from us and, in some cases, offering them incentives to restart trading – some hadn’t traded with us for over 2 years.
