August & September 2023
21/08/23: It's Monday morning at JCB Group's branches in Ashford and there's a buzz of excitement as we continue filming our new company video.
As company videos go, they are quite often about the products sold and are very 'corporate' and formal, using professional actors posing as the company's staff. Not so for the JCB Group!
We wanted our company video to reflect the true character of our business, focussing not so much on the products we sell, but on the staff who sell them. You can buy a quality car or van at many places, but as the old adage says 'people buy from people'. To add authenticity to the filming, our staff agreed to take part themselves, in our own showrooms, service centres and workshops. We hope viewers will get a real feel of the company's values.
We are keen to put across the friendly team atmosphere that greets you when you walk into one of our showrooms. And, as we are a family-owned and run business,- (the MD and owner set up the company himself in 1998 and is an enthusiastic and very involved leader of the business) - we hope the family ethos comes through when you visit.
As we are expanding the number of marques we represent and the scope of the services we offer, it's time for a new company video!
How to get all that across in about 3 minutes of video?........ well, that's not quite so easy!
