Inside AWE: A Day in the Life

For James Drummie , no two days at AWE are alike...

AWE HQ, 7:30am: James' day started by preparing for a client demonstration featuring the Bowers & Wilkins 700 Series floor-standing speakers. "The physical setup was done the day before," he says, "but I still needed to configure the system and select the right demo content to really showcase what the speakers can do." The demo was a hit.

"The client was so impressed that they not only decided to upgrade to the 800 Series, they also opted for a projector upgrade to a Sony model - accommodating their desire for a larger 2.1:1 screen, which necessitated a projector with greater lumen output."

In the afternoon, James' focus shifted to marketing and content creation, as he researched new products and gathered images for upcoming projects. He also tapped into his creative side, writing a script for an upcoming YouTube video on the latest product offerings.

Reflecting on the day, James shares, "I love the blend of working directly with clients, technical configuration and the creative content side of things. It makes every day fresh and exciting!
