If you’ve been following our recent blog posts about the dynamic networking opportunities, including our local women’s networking groups in Yorkshire, you’ll know how passionate we are about local businesses building professional relationships with each other. In the past few years it has become very obvious that social media is playing a massive role in enabling business referrals.

In Yorkshire, we’re lucky to have two fabulously successful business networking groups that offer strong support and frequent opportunities through various forms of social media, especially Linked In. (more…)

Phew – what a relief to be see and hear that more business are looking to consolidate their social media activities in 2012 as opposed to running themselves ragged trying to keep up with every development – and beating themselves up if they don’t.     (more…)

The opportunities to position you and your business as an industry expert in today’s dynamic digital world have never been greater.

The traditional media channels of print, trade, radio and TV and broadcast media channel  - now complemented by proven social media platforms such as blogs , video , Twitter, Facebook, and LinkedIn – enable us to be authorities in order to boost our profile, showcase our expertise – and act as a magnet for new business.

The vibrant online castle accommodation provider Celtic Castles headed by ‘The Castle Man’ Roger Masterson is a great example. Celtic Castles has dramatically accelerated its profile and sales since positioning Roger as the expert ‘Castle Man’ with a wealth of knowledge on the castles’ rich histories and facilities. He explains more to Quest’s Sharon Cain.
