The blog

At the start of August, we hosted the 2019 edition of our Summer Informal. This year's theme? A healthy mind in a healthy body. Before we put our feet under the table for a tasty BBQ, we took part in different workshops: from yoga and Krav Maga over smoothies and healthy fast snacking, to training methodology and a Vita Check. Watch the video below for a glimpse behind the scenes!

Put a group of marketing consultants together, mix it with enthusiasm and energy – and what do you get? An epic skitrip! Let us take you back to our THoMski 2019. At The House of Marketing, we like to go the extra mile, and this year we took it quite literally. After multiple trips to the Vosges, we decided to head to Austria! With a group of 47 enthusiastic employees from different entities of the Quanteus Group – The House of Marketing, BrightWolves and UPTHRUST – we traveled to Mayerhofen. The 12-hour bus ride couldn’t spoil the fun: we enjoyed our trip to the fullest. Looking back with a smile on 3 days of skiing, snowboarding and après-skiing, topped up with a pyjama party and jenever-pong game! Watch our brief after-movie to get a glimpse of our legendary skitrip.

Throwback to the time we were 18 and about to reach the pivotal milestone of choosing a profession or higher education. The questions we struggled with back then remain the same today: from ‘What does the business world look like?’ over ‘Which skills are indispensable to become a successful employee or entrepreneur?’ to ‘What is my purpose in life?’. With their educational project ‘Ondernemers voor de Klas’, non-profit organization Vlajo tries to answer each of those burning queries by inviting seasoned entrepreneurs to share their experiences in front of the class.

For this year’s ‘Weekend van de Klant/du Client’, a handful of grateful THoMers came up with a message we can’t wait to share with you. We hope this one makes you smile and thanks a million for achieving great marketing results together! Now… time to sit back and hit play:

Are you familiar with the business design thinking methodology? It's a mindset, a customer-centric approach to problem solving and a way to design things right (versus designing the right things) based on customer needs. The approach focuses on doing rather than thinking and provides a solution to cope with a constantly changing world. Visualizing our explanation:

How we wish summer could last forever. Last week, we celebrated our favorite time of the year with our Summer Informal. During the annual event, employees and freelancers of The House of Marketing gather to mingle.

Our THoMers like tackling challenges – and they don't stop once work hours are over. This spring, THoMer Karel, his wife and our group CFO's husband conquered the Mont Ventoux, while THoMer Lise and her dad showed off our company colors on top of Le Grand Ballon. Check out the proof below!

At The House of Marketing, we heavily invest in the growth of our THoMers. Our interactive trainings and get-togethers aim to broaden horizons, both professionally and personally. We selected 3 trainings we’ve recently hosted in-house:

Every family has their own traditions – and ours is no exception. Each year, when summer’s settling in, we gather for our legendary barbecue. For the past few editions, our group CEO Kris and his family have been loyal hosts, treating us to an evening in the charming green surroundings of Keerbergen city. This year’s event coincided with the World Cup game between Belgium and England on June 28th. A huge screen, goodie bags with 3-colored gadgets, a food truck and a photo booth: our organizers pulled out all the stops to make the night as memorable as possible. (Thanks to Fingerlicking Streetfood Catering and Betty and Bertie Photobooths for the excellent service!) Since pictures say more than a thousand words… Relive our perfect summer BBQ!

New colleagues joining The House of Marketing always get a warm welcome by the THoMunity and immediately feel part of something bigger. However, only after attending the much talked-of Immersion Camp, you feel like a real THoMer.
