The following write-up was published in the Basingstoke Gazette last Thursday (12 March 2009):

And here’s what some of our guests had to say:

I wanted you to know how much I enjoyed your talk yesterday.  It was very inspirational.  I don’t think I will look at a coke bottle the same again!!

Thank you for inviting me to your VIP Reception. It was engaging throughout and with some useful lessons in brand awareness and how branding can affect one’s image of a company. The use of well-known international brand names and logos to illustrate the presentation was most useful.

The Business South Show was bigger than I expected and I managed to achieve my 3 key objectives when I attended (network, find a web provider and find someone to possibly engage in a strategic partnership with). Your presentation was professional and engaging. I most appreciated the upbeat tone to marketing, which made it seem possible for me, unlike the seminar I’d been to earlier in the day which was not inspiring at all….

What a tremendous time we had at Business South yesterday – the highlight of which was our 2^nd annual VIP Reception.  Thank you very much to all the guests who came along, enjoyed the drinks and snacks, did some serious networking, and (given the feedback) really enjoyed my mini training session on how to create powerful branding for your business.

I would also like to give a special word of thanks to Richard Garfield, Business Editor from the Basingstoke Gazette for taking the time out of his hectic schedule to join in the fun at our reception.
