Our proficiency in supplying professional talent specific to each clients' promotional requirements is the reason we are engaged by major companies to assist with nationally recognised events.

It is most difficult to list all the events we have been involved with over the 21 years. Here are just a few recent activities:

Melbourne Grand Prix: 2010: ISS Marketing on behalf of Lion Nathan, conducted a branding awareness campaign. Gaston supplied over 30 males and females to represent Boags. They were assigned various duties. Some worked in bottleshops as pit crews, some at the track and in the hospatality marquee promoting the brand and mingling with VIP guests, some worked the busy streets in Melbourne again acting as pit crews, whilst others ran a racing challenge game and generated interest in the Boags brand at popular hotels.

We have managed the promotional staffing requirements of many of the manufacturers of the Motor Shows for over 15 years. We are proudly the preferred supplier to the Director of the Melbourne Motor Show and have supplied and trained hundreds of staff to work with various vehicle manufacturers.

With each manufacturer requiring different looks, personalities and talents for their staff, we have met and exceeded expectations of all clients we have worked for. We have supplied staff for Melbourne, Sydney, Perth, Adelaide and Brisbane Motor Shows.

GPJ and Toyota have continuously used our services and staff for 15 years. In addition to Motor Shows, whenever Toyota require staff for product launches, golf days, trade shows, dealer conventions and special events, Gaston staff are hired. Kim Gaston is also hired to Stand Manage the Toyota stand to ensure the day to day operations run smoothly.
