What the Redwoods Advance guys say…

Redwoods Advance is one of our clients. The Singapore based company has been doing well in the Direct Marketing sector.

The Redwoods Advance guys sent us an email recently; a mail that was brief, but powerful and brimming with confidence. Here’s part of that mail for you:

Hi
Happy New Year…
For us here at Redwoods Advance and for the Direct Marketing industry in Singapore, 2012 begins on a positive note. 2011 was great, business-wise, we overshot out targets. We know, yes we know, that we are going to make it even bigger in 2012.
We owe a part of our success to you…we’d expect even greater help from your side
Regards

That’s it. Direct Marketing seems to be in vogue everywhere in the world. New Direct sales companies seem to be coming up, always. Well, that’s perhaps what accounts for the increasing numbers of our clients.

Good for us...and good for them too…

Happy New Year to all….

Stag Weekends in Riga

GoBananas launches packages for Riga for 2012 for stag weekends.  Riga is a great destination and one of the few in Europe where your wallet can go much further ( I don't mean in the back pocket of a pick pocket er either).  Not being part of the Euro means they still have sensible pricing, making it very affordable.
Gobananas is starting off with the most popular Riga stag weekend packages which includes transfers to and from the airport.
Make sure to book up early to take advantage of booking your budget airline nice and cheap.  Riga has all the favourites including stag, paintball, gokarting and of course for the stag nights lap dancing and night club entry.

Perth Planning How long....

So I get very frustrated with bureaucracy at the best of times, I hear on the news how the government wants to help business, yet the actions of the planning department in Perth seem not to follow this line.  For some bazaar reason we had to get planning permission to put a BT line into the new office we want to move into (broadband).  So after paying for an architect to do drawings etc for a small cable, we are still waiting for planning to approve it.

Come on how long does it take to approve a cable, it's tough enough out there doing business and surviving never mind having to wait for some one to tick a box in some council building!  I will laugh if it takes the "6 weeks" they say it will, I will ask for a full report from the top of the department about why my cable to 6 weeks.  I wonder what they have been doing for it to take 6 weeks cos I don't see much in the way of buildings going up at the moment!

When I did speak with them the guy did not seem that bothered by how urgent it is for my business to get this through quickly.  Maybe I should give his details out to my employees so he can explain why getting this approved is so difficult and could compromise their jobs.  Now that would be an interesting conversation to watch!

baumatic bd1630 problems my dishwasher stopped working

I have baumatic bd1630 dishwashers in our self catering lodges, and unfortunately one has stopped working. It is only now I feel totally frustrated. The baumatic bd1630 dishwasher just stopped working, I can't choose a programme, normally you would just press P. So I dug out the manual and was surprised to see a very simple and short list of troubleshooting and nothing even remotely close to my issue. The real frustration comes from baumatic lack of either online help or technical help over the phone. The soonest they could get an engineer out was 5 days, even then they won't have spare parts so will need to order them. How come companies like these don't have a online solution centre like many other companies, or forums where others can help. I now have a luxury cottage with no dishwasher working for 2 weeks and no other support for a quicker solution. If you have a problem with a baumatic bd1630 then post here, maybe other people online can help fix your issue. Reminds me to check appliance's support as well before I buy again.

Great Self Catering Cottages Scotland

Finally got round to building our new site, although still in the development stage Great Self Catering .com will allow us to have one umbrella for all our cottages we want to build over the next few years.
We finished 2 new luxury cottages in early 2011 and had a great response to them, we are now looking to continue building great holiday cottages that people really want to saty in and enjoy.
I would always rate a cottage by how much you looked forward to getting back to it at the end of the day.  Our 2 new cottage Stac Polly and Locholly seem to make people want to stay in them, which I take as a very good sign.

Newquay, a stag and hen destination

I have been updating the Newquay stag weekends pages on Gobananas and see a lot of websites really push the town as a stag and hen destination. Is Nequay really that popular for stag and hens? Do the accommodation providers like hotels, B&B's and campsite like and encourage stag and hen groups to come to Newquay?

I know we had great deals in a small Highland town called Aberfeldy and we sent a lot of stag and hen groups there, but then the locals started to complain about them so we stopped sending our customers there. Now a lot of the businesses we used have gone out of business, so the question is, if the locals want work and local businesses to survive then they have to accept what busniess they can.

Is Newquay a all year round destination or is just a summer option? How do most large groups get to Newquay? Is the airport any good? Does it have lots of destinations flying to it? Is the train quick or does it take an age to get to this part of England?

I know, lots of questions, but before I put a load of effort into promoting Newquay I want to know its worth it. Any feedback from anybody in the know would be great!
