Michael Scully - Tuscan Marketing has an F1 drive with Minardi



Friday 18th May - Donnington Park

Michael has been an avid Formula 1 fan for most of his life and has spent many weekends travelling the globe to watch the races live so that he could be as close to the action as possible.
He could never have imagined being this close to the action with the chance to be a passenger in a specially designed two seater formula one car. The car know as the Minardi F1x2 had been commisioned by Minardi team owner Paul Stoddart to give his teams' sponsors a taste of what life is like inside a Formula 1 car.
Michael is no stranger to being in a fast car but after 4 laps with F1 driver Zsolt Baumgartner at the wheel he had a whole new appreciation for the word fast. The day was a huge success and with the opportunity to rub shoulders with racing legends Stirling Moss and Mario Andretti it was unforgettable.

Steven Trundle ~ (Tuscan Marketing) Runs the Düsseldorf Marathon


Steven Trundle ~ (Tuscan Marketing) Runs the Düsseldorf Marathon

After compiling a list of ‘Things to Achieve in Life’ during 2006, Steven Trundle (Tuscan Marketing Düsseldorf) decided that running a Marathon was something that he would love to accomplish. Having always been a keen sportsman, he relished the challenge of running 42kms; however the most running he had done prior to beginning his training was 90 minutes on a football field!


Steven’s plan was to train 4 times a week, every week from January, eventually working his way up to full marathon distance. The plan was perfect but the execution, unfortunately, was not.


Steve’s training was sporadic at best and with only 3 weeks left alarm bells started ringing. It was time to train. As an extra motivation during the run and reason to train, Steve had already made a commitment to raise sponsorship money and donate it all to internationally renowned charity Save the Children. Steven has a personal interest in Save the Children after overseeing a marketing campaign conducted by Tuscan Marketing in Ikea stores and is well aware that every pound and euro raised goes to help a great cause.


After running 50/60km per week for the 3 weeks leading up to the big day, Steve felt confident and ready for the challenge.


On the day itself the weather conditions were by no means perfect for a marathon, blazing sun and temperatures in excess of 26 degrees would put anyone’s stamina, will-power and endurance to the test. Waiting at the starting line Steve begun to wonder if he had trained hard enough to finish the Marathon in less than his target time of 4 hours.


With the streets of Düsseldorf lined with thousands of supporters, the atmosphere reached fever-pitch when the start siren sounded and Steve set off on his first ever Marathon, all that was left to do was to concentrate on the task ahead and keep running!


Throughout day Steve was cheered on by friends and supporters from Tuscan Marketing in Düsseldorf, including Managing Director Michael Scully.


After battling with the heat and exhaustion, Steve crossed the finish line in 3 hours 52 minutes and 50 seconds and raised almost 600€ for Save the Children. The support Steve received from everybody was without a doubt a major factor in completing the run and also the knowledge that his efforts on the day were helping to change and save peoples lives.

Tuscan Marketing

Welcome


The story of The Tuscan Organisation began with the incorporation of the very first company, Tuscan Marketing Ltd, in May 1993, and since that time the organisation has experienced incredible growth. Today the organisation comprises of more than 70 marketing companies across the UK, Ireland, Continental Europe and Australasia representing some of the biggest brands in the world.


Year on year the list of clients that we are working with continues to grow at an impressive pace, allowing us to diversify into many new and exciting areas of the global market. Traditionally our focus has been on the telecommunication, financial service, utility, charity and insurance sectors but of course we are constantly researching new products and markets to continue our expansion.


Direct Marketing is now widely acknowledged as the most effective method of acquiring new customers and increasing brand awareness. This has forced many large companies to re-evaluate their traditional marketing strategies and outsource their direct marketing requirements to specialist companies, like Tuscan Marketing.


One of our key objectives has always been to deliver a high standard of customer service to the end consumer and an excellent cost effective marketing campaign for the client. In fact, last year alone we acquired almost 1,000,000 new customers for our clients worldwide. The financial value of these customers to our clients is staggering, adding hundreds of millions of pounds to their annual revenues.


Our long-term success is based upon providing the ambitious individuals in our organisation with opportunities to develop their skills, gain experience and ultimately progress to senior positions of responsibility. This can only be accomplished by continuing to deliver ongoing training and support for our people, which will allow them in turn to achieve their own successes and assist in our continuing expansion plans.

Tuscan Marketing - TVR Tuscan, What's in a name?

While Michael Scully was studying he had a part time job working with a furniture removal company and the owner of that business had a 1981 TVR sports car. At that point Michael decided that one day in the future he would buy himself a TVR and that dream became a goal. In 1993 when Michael opened his first marketing company he named it Tuscan Marketing so that everyday he would be reminded of his goal and a few years later Michael purchased a TVR Tuscan. Goal Achieved. Michael says, "The most important thing is to visualise your goal first and then remind yourself constantly of what you are working towards. Visualisation is the key."
