Updates...

Hi every one…

Just thought I would drop you all a note to let you know how things are hotting up in the world of the ABC. We have just completed our first week of trading and looking back over the last week I have been examining the results we have had for others and ourselves.

To name but a few, we have found a courier a job from Bury St Edmunds to Southampton, a local sign company an introduction with a national car dealership, a copy writer a local authors book to edit for publishing and a curtain company a £1,200 order. Now take into account the fact that we haven’t even advertised yet, not bad.

We have had so many meetings over the last weeks, which it seemed we were having meetings to talk about meeting at some points. When we look back, we think wow we have achieved a lot. We have even managed to secure a 15% discount card for all our members for the Chez Gerard Group.

Over the next three weeks, we have two cars going to be covered in advertising to start really pushing the point we are here. Signs for Northgate round about in Bury St Edmunds, leaflets to drop around all commercial and retail units and poster frames to be put up in takeaways.

The websites are now all but completed on the front end, and over the next weeks all the back office for the members will go live. Members are now being added to www.abclocal.biz search engine so we can start advertising that as well.

The final push is on to get every body to the launch of our first ABC Breakfast Meeting; this is a massive task, as my experience only to well knows.

Oh well back to the grind stone, hope to catch up with you at the next ABC Coffee Networking Meeting.

Thanks for reading

Mark
