Forget the Selfie... it’s time for the Deskie!

Are you prepared to upload a snapshot of your desk? As part of Promotional Products Week (PPW), the BPMA are looking for desks with character, desks with style, desks that have seen a lot of life and a bit of loving by office workers around the UK.

Simply take a ‘deskie’ and post it on Facebook at www.facebook.com/bpmasourcing and you could be up for the ‘Desk of the Year’ Award, as well as being in with a chance of winning £1,000 worth of desk accessories.

The Desk of the Year is a national campaign and anyone can submit their ‘deskie’ on Facebook until 19th September.

Snap a shot of your own desk or that of your colleagues. Who has the untidiest work desk in the office? Do your co-workers frown each time they walk past a desk? Is your desk covered or does everything have its designated place? In the business world of hot desking, why not show us how you have made it your own personal space, temporarily?

It doesn’t matter whether your working desk is in an office, the garden shed or even the kitchen table; why not take a ‘deskie’ and either post it on the Facebook page www.facebook.com/bpmaSourcing, email ppweek@bpma.co.uk or tweet @PPWeek #PPWeek.

There is no need to tidy up beforehand, put pictures up of your children that weren’t previously there, clear the in-tray or get rid of excess coffee cups, crisp packets or chocolate wrappers; we want to see it all!

All respondents who upload a snapshot of their desk onto the Facebook page at www.facebook.com/bpmaSourcing; email ppweek@bpma.co.uk or tweet @PPWeek #PPWeek will automatically be entered into a prize draw where the winner will receive £1,000 worth of desk accessories as well as the much coveted and highly anticipated title ‘Desk of the Year’ and will be presented with a beautiful plaque.

Come on Britain show us your desk!
