Out and about again

I can't believe it's Friday again!  This week seems to have gone in a blur.  There has been a healthy supply of orders and Amazon seems to have taken the lead over the website in bringing them home.  It was good to discover that two of my Amazon customers have taken the trouble to supply feedback and especially good as they had both scored 5 out of 5 and made extremely complimentary comments.

My place had been booked since January and I'd been looking forward to attending a Business Link event entitled "A straightforward Approach to Marketing."  It was held in Exeter yesterday and I am pleased to say that I wasn't disappointed.  It was probably the best Business Link event that I've attended and the title was certainly an accurate description of how we spent the day.

Far from simply listening to a marketing professional explaining the elements of successful marketing, this seminar was very different. This was a workshop called "Developing a Market Led Approach" and it was a whole day of thought and analysis.  Yes we did work through the elements of marketing but then, through very clever questioning, we had to relate each one to our own situation, which really got you thinking about ways of improving what you are doing.  A simple format - but oh so powerful!

Thank you Business Link and Dave Moody (the presenter) for providing me with an understanding of the thought processes and decisions that I need to make so that my marketing is successful.  Brilliant!
