Try the following contacts and points of advice  I would rate re marketing:
  1. The Marketing Compass by Nigel Temple.
  2. The Entrepeneurs Circle by Nigel Botteril.
  3. Fraser Hay of The Results Academy.
  4. Maurice Watts of Melville Marketing and
  5. Chiltern Marcoms.


who all offer something for nothing and free consultation and advices.

They can be Googled for contact details.

In return might you know of a business-client/supplier/friend etc-wanting business law advice?

Regards,

Brian

There are hundreds of marketing ideas I could suggest but the one that springs to mind first is to ensure you are on Google Places.

If I break down and need recovery .. assuming I'm not in the AA/RAC ... I would look on my SatNav or phone for help .. you can advertise on SatNav free and phones free via Google Places.

The other thought is to become the preferred recovery contractor for the council / police .. you'll need to contact them to see how that works locally and may need to offer a very rapid service from motorways etc.

Hello Barry

You may want to consider Bartercard. It guarantees new customers to all of its members and gives up front interest free funding. If you spend this funding, instead of using your cash, then it is only paid back with new business from within their network. They currently have around 4000 different companies on their books in this country and over 65,000 world wide. Been going since 1991 and do about £4m a month of trading in the UK. Call me if you like and I will give you more details 07809 427233

Regards

Neil
