Back safe and sound from Solihull 18 | 10 | 2011

I had a succesful trade show at AIS in Solihull last week. Met loads of current customers and made some new ones!  Also have some dynamic new friends that were co-exhibitors, every show adds to my network of great characters. I love doing the trade shows, catching up with old customers, finding new ones and meeting old friends. I do get a bit tired of hearing my own voice though! (I’m sure they do too!) Amanda

Jersey Enterprise Social Media Lecture 30 | 04 | 2010

I have just been to a lecture by Jersey Enterprise (States of Jersey Economic Development) about the importance of communicating with your customers through blogs, facebook, twitter etc. It was well worth while and has given me new enthusiam and the confidence to get stuck in.

New lifestyle shots

We have had some professional lifestyle photos done by Danny Evans (freelance photographer that shoots for Gallery Magazine Jersey etc.) They look fantastic and really add life to our products. I should just pretend its me in the pictures but it’s not! Ola, our Fizbag model has long legs and a lovely face and is 100 years younger than me and managed to look like she wasn’t freezing. We’ll be loading some images onto the website shortly. Have a great bank holiday weekend. Amanda
