Over the past six months over 300 local businesses have attended our workshops and seminars. The feedback we have received has been excellent, for example, 76% of delegates stated that they were ‘very satisfied’ with the workshop that they attended. Equally encouraging have been the many positive comments we have received from delegates: “The speakers were great, really knowledgeable and helpful” “I thought it was a complicated subject but it was presented in a concise way, straight to the point and therefore easily understood” “An excellent presentation packed full of information and tips” “Absolutely brilliant – very pleased I decided to come along. Great speaker and the info I need given in a language and format that’s easy to understand – thank you!” “Great, great, great!” “I feel I can now make an informed decision about my new website and that feels empowering! Thanks so much!”   Why not take a look at our video to get an idea of what the day will hold. (LINK)
