Beat Box . . . 'pick up the rhythm'
Pick up the rhythm is a metaphor for KDP’s services. Designed to encourage clients to think creatively about pace of work, behaviour patterns and speed of decision-making, it is a powerful idiom too for how we operate. When it came to promoting our consultants’ resources - newsletter, quarterly soirees, coaching group and office services, the name Beat Box seemed a natural choice.
To complement it we had a fabulous give-away drumstick key-ring; such a success that even now people say “Oh I remember you. I’ve still got your key-ring!” So when Diana met the enterprising Somesh De Swardt of Drum Jam she decided this was the perfect home for her beloved key-rings. Drop in to the Rhythm Café in Camden, get yourself some drumsticks and ppppick up the beat!
