Market competition and expansion:

The business has in the past used exhibitions and advertising in specialist publications combined with articles outlining and promoting the business’s products and benefits and there are excellent opportunities to increase this and market the business more aggressively to significantly increase turnover.
Marketing is predominantly via telesales and regular e-mailings to the business’s extensive database of over 4,000 training specialists, advising them of new products and special offers.
The business has the benefit of an attractive website that comprehensively presents the business’s product lines and practical services as well as providing an insight into the ordering, payment and delivery.
A high proportion of the business's revenue has been due to its excellent reputation for quality and service and strong word of mouth recommendation |
