Fortis Green X Oscar Hunt Tailors

Fortis Green shoeshine worked alongside Oscar Hunt Tailors in April 2018 to promote their made to measure service. Over three days we offered complimentary shoe shines within the prestigious lobby of 360 Collins Street, Melbourne.  

While corporate building residents and guests received their luxury shoeshine, staff from Oscar Hunt had the opportunity to develop a rapport with potential customers, develop future leads and explain their services in an open, relaxed atmosphere.

Fortis Green X Optus 'Yes' forum

On Wednesday 1st November Fortis Green provided shoe shining services on the Melbourne leg of the Optus 'Yes' Forum - an event for approximately 150 guests at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre.

Hosted by Optus, this series of national presentations allowed attendees to gain insights from business leaders and discover the latest in IT solutions. The keynote speaker was Steve Sammartino, one of Australia's most respected futurists and business technologists.

The Fortis Green shoeshine team were on hand with our twin shoeshine chairs providing complimentary shines between presentations. Most guests took advantage of our shoe shining activation with well over 60% of the total attendees utilising our luxury service.

Having our two identical shoeshine chairs working side by side allowed for our staff to shine the footwear of a larger number of patrons within the relatively short times between presentations as well as some great networking opportunities with business cards being swapped from chair to chair during the shines.

Fortis Green X Kings and Knaves

Recently opening at 277 William Street in Melbourne, Kings and Knaves Espresso engaged the Fortis Green shoeshine service as a promotional vehicle to both increase awareness of the cafe and as a reward for their loyal customers.

In the week leading up to the event, Kings and Knaves promoted their complimentary shoeshine activation through their social media channels, leading to a consistently busy event. 

This fantastic cafe is well placed next to Flagstaff Station and the law courts. With a fast growing reputation for great food, coffee and service, combined with their savvy marketing strategy, Kings and Knaves is already receiving rave reviews from publications such as Broadsheet.  

We received great feedback from Kings and Knaves with a number of regular customers requesting we become a permanent addition to their venue.
