We’re onto day 4 of our Purple People New Year’s resolutions and it’s our Digital Marketing queen Emma and coding wizard Kieran’s turns to reveal what they’ve been up to throughout 2019 and looking ahead to 2020.
Emma
1. What is your New Year's resolution for 2020?
To keep my houseplants alive-I need some tips from Sarah as I've managed to kill 2 orchids and 2 other plants this year! I’ve also vowed to complete my motorbike license next year as I ran out of time this summer!
2. What is your biggest achievement of 2019?
Growing the digital marketing side of Purple to the point we could take on Jess, our new digital marketing apprentice. It was always my secret goal to have grown to this point within a year and I did it! Out of work, I’m pretty chuffed that I talked my boyfriend into having a pink living room and getting a 7ft Christmas tree...
3. What are you looking forward to/excited for in 2020?
Work-wise I'm looking forward to starting a Graphic design course in January and of course meeting and taking on lots more clients. Outside of work I'm looking forward to travelling further afield and hopefully starting to think about buying a house!
4. What do you want to learn more about in 2020?
Graphic design and video editing which I'll be doing in January! I'd like to be able to offer a wider range of services to our clients. I'd also like to learn more about SEO, I have worked on a few projects in the last couple of months which have involved writing for SEO and I’d like to learn more about the subject as a whole.
5. What 3 words would you choose to describe your 2019?
Busy, exciting and content.
Kieran
1. What is your New Year's resolution for 2020?
I would like to become more organised due to me knowing that there is a lot more child in me than adult!
2. What is your biggest achievement of 2019?
During 2019 I gave myself a slap and decided to join the gym after trying multiple times but not sticking to it. This time I did not quit, and I have managed to stick to it with great long term results.
3. What are you looking forward to/excited for in 2020?
In the year of 2020, I plan to move out of home with my parents and live alone, this has been a goal of mine for a while now but I think the new year is for new things!
4. What do you want to learn more about in 2020?
I am a man who loves to learn so wanting to move out will teach me more about being an adult, for example, bills, money-saving etc.
5. What 3 words would you choose to describe your 2019?
Learning, Consistency, Helping.
