Scooter is Born!
The glassy penguin who stole our hearts!
Hey there, Scooternauts! 🐧 Today, we’re going on a nostalgic journey back in time to discover how our gorgeous glass penguin, Scooter, made his debut. Yes, we are spilling the beans on how Scooter and #ScooterGoesGlobal came to be – trust us, you won’t want to miss it!
Picture the Scene
It’s March 2023 in Clifden, Connemara – a time of artistic exploration.
Drum roll…. Cue the Penguin! 🐧
Throughout 2022, we heard the pleas for a penguin decoration. It turns out, the world is head over heels for these waddling marvels. So, we thought, let’s whip up one just in time for the new season.
Crafting the Perfect Penguin
Crafting the perfect penguin, though, was a rollercoaster. It took a parade of prototypes to hit the sweet spot. Our aim? Infuse it with cuteness, fun, and broad appeal. After a whirlwind of adjustments and experiments, we struck pure penguin gold!
The Name Game
But then came the epic moment of naming our glassy amigo. Everyone deserves a name, right? We turned to social media and launched a naming campaign with your support.
The response was penguintastic, and we shortlisted three names:
Howard, Scooter, and Tubridy.
The AI Twist
We all know the result of the vote. Scooter won by a landslide!
But wait, it gets even juicier! The revelation of Scooter’s AI-assisted name shook things up after the public vote. Emer, the mastermind behind “Scooter,” spilled the beans – she turned to ChatGPT for name suggestions. A mind-blowing twist, wouldn’t you agree?
#AiForGood
This adventure got us buzzing about AI’s potential. We flung our flippers fully into the world of ChatGPT, uncovering its power to enhance our marketing and jazz up our website with product descriptions and witty one-liners.
Scooter the Heart Stealer
Scooter quickly became a cherished member of our creative family, spreading joy to our customers and us here at the workshop. And guess what? This blog is just the beginning.
Brace yourselves for more tales from the world of Scooter, the penguin that stole our hearts.
