We have successfully overcome some unusual objections to our  trade mark application. Prosperity Recruitment had applied to register  the trade mark of its own name: “Prosperity”.  However,  objections arose as the Church of Scientology has a similar trade mark relating to the word “Prosperity”. The objection said that Prosperity Recruitment’s activities were too closely described to the Scientologists! After much difficulty Prosperity was successfully able to overcome these issues with the Trade Mark office and our trade mark will now be officially registered and protected.

It is interesting that our company’s services could be considered to be a close match to the goods and “services” described by the Scientologists.  We aim to promote a different kind of Happiness – one that is all the more in demand in this current economic climate!

A pink website win an award?? They said it couldn’t be done. They said it was impossible. The doubters, those who like to play it safe, those web luddites . . . oh, how they slung their arrows and darts. But we were steadfast - we remained pink and proud . . . (please forgive the little textual victory dance here!)

Our vindication came last night when Prosperity.ie won best recruitment website of 2008 at the Golden Spiders Awards.

This is the first time the award in this category has been given to a recruitment company and not to a jobs board. Previous winners were such heavyweights as Irishjobs.ie and Monster.ie.

We were really delighted to accept this award at the Burlington Hotel last night.

The site was designed by Kevin Finn of Finn Creative and he was joint Creative Director with Martin Wright of GospelTM. All Usability Design and SEO was done in house at Prosperity. This is the fourth award for Prosperity this year having scooped Grand Prix award and best Sales Ad with their “ Thank God it’s Monday” ad at the 2008 Irish Independent  ERA awards. Prosperity also won best sales and marketing ad with the campaign “Welcome to Sales-topia” at the Irish Times 2008 Cedar Awards last week.
