Small Business Success - Fantastic Feedback

 

"Rob, today's email is a typical example of how valuable your information is. The format is good in that you get a decent amount of information before having to click through to another area.  If you do click through it is quick and in an easy to read format.  The email itself is also quick to review which really helps when you are busy and receive quite a few of these type of emails.
The information contained in them is good - tips mainly which I love.  Most of us have some understanding of how to do things and are probably practising or at least trying to but its the tips which really make the difference.  Today for example tips on improving your public speaking - very relevant, quick to read and always noted for use next time.
And I like the quotes - they help focus the mind!

"Small Business has provided me with useful information on how to set up an on-line business.  As always, the Newsletters are full of great ideas and useful information to guide the novice through a minefield of problems.  Rob and team are getting the mix just right - something for everyone.  Keep up the good work."

"Rob, your news letter has given me better insight into how to help our business grow. I am amazed at the wealth of information you have to help clear our mind about things we had already identified as problems blocking our way to success. Your ideas are practical and easy to impliment. Already in our plan for this year, we used your news letter ideas and the seminar notes as a framework, guiding our plan for the year.

 We will continue to subscribe to the news letter. It is worth it. I hope more businesses can benefit from your news letter  and ideas."

 

Best Regards,

 

Hillary

Through using Small Business Success, we were able to quickly and effectively source key information and resources that helped our business to grow and become a key company in the recruitment of sales professionals across London and the South East"

"As a small business entrepreneur feeling isolated is often a common occurrence, with help and advice being few and far between. What I have found brilliant about the small business success newsletter was the use of applicable information. Newsletters are far to often heavy reading material which frankly I don't always have time for but with the SBS newsletter you can spend the first few minutes of your day with a cup of coffee reading practical thought provoking pieces which can be applied that very same day."

"Small Business Success provides important, useful and handy-to-know nuggets of information on almost every aspect of running a small business. I don't need to scour the latest articles or struggle to keep abreast of what's going on that might potentially affect me - because Rob's newsletter has most angles covered. The articles from other small business owners also provide useful food for thought. Highly recommended."

"I have no hesitation in recommending Small Business Success. Having recently started our own business it is fantastic to know that there is help and support out there at such a crucial stage. What is even better is to know there is a person behind that, numerous times I have e-mailed Rob and always got a reply straight away. Thanks for all your help and encouragement!"

"The Small Business Success newsletter makes me stop and think of topics that wouldn't naturally spring to mind in the day to day running of a small  business. The useful links provided have also allowed me to investigate things there and then and sometimes really making a difference to the way I do things. The small tip at the end such as making referrals etc have also helped me no end with networking situations, which are the main source of clients for my business.

So thanks Rob for your articles and tips!"

"The newsletters are very interesting, and sometimes feel guilty that I take everything and give back nothing. I print off some tips, have ordered some books and because I can dip in and out of it, it is almost like a seminar without the hassle, commitment and expense of attending."

"I have run my business for the past 10 years and have learnt a lot since I started, but find your regular newsletter sparks new ideas and often inspires a different approach to a familiar situation. I work with a variety of business owners, from sole traders and professionals to owners of retail outlets and  larger businesses and use a mix of marketing, branding and coaching techniques to help my clients achieve business success."

"I look forward to receiving your newsletter. It is just the right length to read immediately, as opposed to saving to read in my free time, and every week without fail I have picked up a new idea that I have applied to my business.
The e books I have downloaded have been nothing short of inspirational. Thank you so much for providing such a great service."

“Small Business Success, Your weekly newsletter is a valuable resource for the new small business entrepreneur. Setting up a new business is a daunting and often lonely road to take. Not knowing where to start, who to speak to for advice and guidance coupled with that nagging little voice in the back of one’s mind (I call mine ‘Harry the Rat’) saying “you'll never do it”, can be a real setback and the difference between going forward or giving up. Having to trawl through a minefield of information is both time consuming and sometimes unproductive. Your newsletter and website provides critical information, excellent tips and advice in a concise and unobtrusive manner and is a pleasure to read.  Do I recommend Small Business Success? Unreservedly! As for ‘Harry the Rat’… move over.”

"I have to say that I wouldn't change anything about the newsletter or the site. Both are a great resource for anyone running their own business.

The articles often provide great ideas for new directions or different approaches to take.

All in all a great tool."

"For most employers of smaller businesses, with multiple (and seemingly infinite!) responsibilities, there is a constant struggle to obtain meaningful and actionable information quickly. Through using Small Business Success, we were able to quickly and effectively source key information and resources that has improved our understanding of smaller businesses, and has helped our business to grow to become a key company in the provision of affordable online safety and HR advice to smaller UK businesses"

"I find Small Business Success extremely useful. Ours is a not for profit organisation formed for the promotion of enterprise culture entrepreneurship development.

As an organisation working in a third world country, we do not have access to quality resources on entrepreneurship and small business. I find the article library extremely useful. We have a mailing list of about 1000 smes and I have introduced your site to all of them.

Shortly we are going to launch a training programme " Flexible Entrepreneurship Development Programme". This is a programme which seeks to promote entrepreneurship in an extremely flexible manner. The 'wantrepreneurs' of this programme will be required to visit your site as it forms part of the curriculum."
