Annual Conference

Monday, May 14th, 2012

The company I work for has an annual conference every spring when we can all come together and discuss our aims for the next year of business. We always go to a different location and venue every year as we are all based at different parts of the UK. I live in Swansea so I was pleased to hear that we would be meeting at www.conferenceroomsbristol.co.uk this year which is much easier for me to get than Aberdeen, the location for last year’s meeting!

The facilities at the venue were great and we had everything that we needed. It offered a really relaxed atmosphere and we were able to achieve a lot over the two days that we were staying there.

Specialist Expo

Saturday, August 13th, 2011

I have always thought that the best way to do well in your career is to find a specialist field that you want to work in, learn how to do your job well and offer your services to the companies who need them. Twenty years ago I started learning how to upholster rare antique furniture, and I have been working in the industry ever since. It is very specialist as you need to know about all of the different woods and fabrics. It has become a bit if a fashionable area to work in recently, and I thought that if there was a specialist show for people interested in upholstery, a lot of people would come. I decided to take the chance and book a room at www.conferenceroomsbournemouth.co.uk for the following month.

I got some posters and flyers printed with www.digitalprintingbournemouth.co.uk and posted them to local upholstery groups and courses in the area. I had a lot of people ringing me to book, and I couldn't believe how popular the show was becoming. Even though I had had so much interest, I was still anxious on the day of the show, but it was a resounding success, and we have already booked for next year.

Starting A New Business

Monday, May 9th, 2011

There are so many things that you need to think about when you start a new business!  I have always thought that once the idea for the business and the funding is there, it would all slot into place, but I was wrong. There are so many admin related things to sort out. I needed to find offices, and once I found offices I needed to make sure that they offered the right kind of environment for our company. I found a great old building that had been converted, and was perfect for our vision. The only issue was the temperature of the offices. They were really big windows that were great for letting in light, but they turned the office into a sauna. I knew that if we were going to use this office, we needed to get air conditioning. I looked online and found exactly the services that we needed with www.airconditioninginstallersoxford.co.uk. They were very helpful and chose the perfect air conditioning system for our requirements.
