Some milestones

An example of how marketing is done !

A master of the strategic publicity stunt, Branson knew photographers have a job to do and they’d turn up at his events if he gave them a good reason. He took on stodgy, overpriced British Airways by wearing World War I era flying gear to announce the formation of Virgin Atlantic in 1984. The first Virgin flight took off laden with celebrities and media and equipped with a brass band, waiters from Maxim’s in white tie and tails, and free-flowing champagne. The airborne party enjoyed international press coverage and millions of dollars’ worth of free publicity.
