4 Mar 2009 Lost in Translation

Chris got an unwelcome glimpse into the downside of the life of a celebrity on Monday when he was misquoted in the regional press…

When a Crain’s magazine reporter contacted us, further to reading our blog, asking if we could comment on an article detailing event venues in Manchester, we were more than happy to oblige.

Chris provided comment on a specific event; where we needed a venue which could provide entertainment space and catering for 450 guests in a historic or visually intriguing environment. Little did we realise that the article seemed to negatively target a venue we enjoy working with immensely, Manchester Central, with Chris advertised as its key informant!

Rapport prides itself on having a reputation built around strong, lasting relationships with all its clients, venues and suppliers so a misrepresentation of this kind is not only incorrect, but also goes against what Rapport stands for as a company.

But on the other hand we now have a new found empathy for Lily Allen..!
