Meet The Founder - Wendy
I am an events, communications and education professional, and as the Managing Director of Majic Touch Events & Communications Services, my vision is for my company to become the leading provider of innovative event, communication and educational services and to set new industry standards for excellence and affordability.
Equally important to me is my company's mission which is to consistently deliver exceptional services that inspire creativity, empower knowledge and generate success for my clients. I am committed to achieving this by offering high-quality solutions at competitive prices, ensuring the satisfaction of every client we serve.
My Professional Beginnings - Journalism!
My professional career began at the then Trinidad Guardian newspaper in February 1997 as a freelance writer on the Sports Desk. After performing this role for approximately six months, I was made a permanent employee on August 15 - the same day the company sent me to cover the AFNA tournament in St. Georges, Grenada.
At the end of 1998, I was rewarded with two titles - the Journalist of the Year on the Sports Desk and the company's overall Journalist of the Year. I believe my overall coverage of the CAC Games in Maracaibo, Venezuela, in 1998, helped me to gain these awards.
I also believe those awards caused the hierarchy of the company to transfer me to the
News Department. I was not too pleased with the move; however, I took up the challenge. My first stint on the News Desk was to cover the Magistrate's Court which was then located at the Nipdec House in St. James. It was my first experience being in a court room and it was not a very nice time; I had never heard such loud talking in my life and the environment left a lot to be desired.
Nevertheless, I overcame this phase of my life and after a few years on that beat, I was asked and accepted a Specialist Journalist offer from the now defunct Daily News Limited in 2002. I returned to the Trinidad Guardian in November 2003 as an Investigative Journalist and left for CNMG in June 2006. I spent nine months at CNMG after which I finally left mainstream media for another job calling.
Enter Communications & Public Relations
While I was in the mainstream media, retired Assistant Commissioner of Police, Winston Cooper (now deceased), asked me to join the Public Relations department at the Trinidad and Tobago Police Service; at that time, I was also conducting an internship at the TTPS through COSTAATT.
The Ministry of National Security readily accepted the police's recommendation and I started my Public Relations career in March, 2007. I was the main communication aide for the Commissioner of Police, and the face of the TTPS in keeping with the Mastrofski make-over for the law enforcement agency.
During my stint at the TTPS, I was tasked with mainly writing press releases, speeches and coordinating press conferences and other annual events. Moreover, I took the initiative to produce a bi-monthly newsletter entitled "Policing for People". I also played a key communication role in a major corporate event - the Caribbean Association of Women Police (CAWP) conference held at the Cascadia hotel in 2007. I also co-produced a 32-page magazine for the TTPS entitled 'Developing the Leadership Mastery of Regional Female Law Enforcement Officers' for the CAWP conference.
While at the TTPS, and still a student at COSTAATT, I was asked to lecture the Events Management course at the college and I had also set-up my Communication and Public Relations business, named Wendy K Campbell's Media & Public Relations Consultancy, which was formed chiefly to concentrate on media-driven (social and mainstream) public relations, marketing, publicity communications and promotional programs for the government and private sectors, sport and independent businesses.
I continued to grow in strength as a Communications professional and subsequently left the TTPS in November, 2008. Thereafter, the Ministry of National Security selected me to provide Media & PR services for the Gold Commander at the Fifth Summit of the Americas (VSOA) conference held in Trinidad and Tobago in April 2009, and prior to that I had a short stint in communications with the Office of Disaster Preparedness and Management where I worked with members of the United States Southern Command. By this time, I had successfully completed my Associates of Science Degree in Journalism & Public Relations from the COSTAATT and my Masters Degree in Mass Communications with the University of Leicester, England.
I took a break from lecturing and communication between 2009 and August 2010, and by September 2010, after a successful application, I resumed lecturing, this time at the UWI-Roytec to teach Public Relations.
Enter Lecturing
My lecturing deliveries resonated well with students and after six years, I was offered the Subject Head position for the Marketing, Sales & Public Relations department; I also continued lecturing the Marketing, Public Relations and Events courses.
Moreover, I was also incorporated into the English & Communication department as a lecturer, and in 2022, I was offered the Subject Head of that department, which I still head. One of my biggest accomplishments at the UWI-Roytec was copping a third-place finish at the institution's inaugural Excellence in Teaching awards in 2021.
During my time at the UWI-Roytec, I have lectured the following courses:
-
Public Relations (Fundamentals & Advanced)
-
Events Management (All Phases)
-
Journalism
-
Mass Communications
-
Marketing
-
Business Communication (Writing of all business documents)
-
Crisis Prevention, Crisis Management, Crisis Communication, Crisis Evaluation
-
Communication 1 (English Usage)
-
Communication 2 (Business Writing)
-
Communication 3 (Understanding Human Communication)
I have also provided Corporate Training services for both private and public institutions in the above courses.
Enter Majic Touch Events & Communications Services
Given my experience with events through the Ministry of National Security and smaller events I did for family members and friends over the years, I decided to rebrand Wendy K Campbell's Media & PR Consultancy to Majic Touch Events & Communications Services in October 2019. Thus, events became the vanguard of my business; however, Covid-19 came and affected the events part of my business.
Nevertheless, I used the pause on events to build my new brand through education via social media. This worked because soon enough, I was contracted to provide decor services for individuals and private organisations. My biggest event project came from the TTPS' offer to provide event coordinating services for the 37th ACCP AGM & Conference held at the Hyatt Regency in May, 2023. The feedback was positive. Since then, I have done several private events for individuals.
Regardless of the size and scope of your event, I treat events like a business with clear strategic milestones and a comprehensive plan to ensure that your event is delivered on time and within budget.
