Another networking evening

October 21st, 2008 • Related • Filed Under

Angela and I attended the business link meeting tonight at Northwood house. Although we had problems getting there due to one of those very annoying sets of traffic lights that spring up and grind the traffic to a halt, when we did, we were treated to an excellent seminar presented by Peter Czapp of The Wow Company The seminar was entitled “How to grow your business whatever the market conditions” and it certainly gave us plenty of food for thought. I am certainly wanting to grow my Usborne book business. In September, Usborne books at home grew 42% on last September and we are of course extremely pleased with that. Tonight, I received a flyer announcing some special offers that will begin at 9.30 tomorrow. They are terrific offers and if you would like information on cookbooks, wildlife books, how to knit book or the big book of things to make and do then please email me fore information. You can add your name to my special offer list and be first to hear about the latest Usborne bargains. I really value my customers.
