Our services include business mentoring and coaching plus bespoke one-to-one training for small businesses. We also provide general tips and advice for small businesses on our blog based on our own broad experiences (and mistakes!). Let us know about your business problems, challenges, successes and mistakes in the comments of any blog post, because sometimes it’s good just to chat – a problem shared and all that.

We have specialist small business skills such as how to amplify your online marketing through the use of video with subtitles and voice overs to make your website more accessible to a wider audience. And how to expand your business into other countries by using a specialist voice over agency to add foreign language voice overs and subtitling to your video content (BTW we use Matinee Voice Over Agency for our video voice-overs and subtitles). We cover issues and challenges that can give you a better chance of succeeding first time round.

But success is not just about good marketing and identifying the best markets for your product or service so we also advise on how to capitalise on emerging technologies to seize opportunities to develop a ground-breaking reputation and build a respected brand.

So join us by commenting on anything that strikes a chord with you – we love to hear other people’s opinions and if you have a small business success story to share we would be particularly interested to hear about it.

Businesses can reach a wider audience by amplifying online marketing via better use of videos. Using closed captions, subtitles and voice-overs will also ensure your video content is fully accessible to all. Using a specialist voice over agency will ensure the selection of the right voice for your brand that evokes your message in the way most likely to engage potential customers. Whether that is a male voice-over or female voice-over, who speaks with an English accent or even English in a foreign accent (think Volvo and IKEA adverts). And for businesses targeting an international market use foreign language voice overs and subtitling on your video content.

We understand the challenges of the digital space, cutting through the noise and really reaching your audience. We know which marketing media types and platforms provide the best ROI to give you the best chance of building a successful brand and reputation.
