Forever grateful

10/12/2015 | admin | another satisfied customer! | Comments Off on Forever grateful
Always nice to hear that I've hit the spot! I have worked with Dean Williams of Unicorn Solutions on a number of projects including, corporate literature, presentations and exhibition stands. This came through from Dean, so I simply had to share it...

I felt I had to put my appreciation and thanks into words with regards to the recent package of work you recently did for me on my presentation slides.

When I started out in business on my own I had a wealth of training presentations and I knew I needed some help with my slides and their design. I had previously kept all my PowerPoint presentations very uniformed (using one of the templates within the software) with great content but all showed very little creativity. After having our 1-2-1 a few weeks ago in which you demonstrated your previous work, I knew I had to give you a try. To date, this has been one of my best decisions in the 12 months as Unicorn Solutions Ltd.

You have delivered a quality package of work to a standard that surpassed my expectations. I have been guilty of embarrassing you before in front of others by saying how talented you are but you do genuinely have an ability to deliver quality, value for money and attention to detail to a level that makes me proud to stand by my presentations.

I would encourage anyone in doubt as who to use to produce graphic design to look no further.

Please keep doing what you’re doing as you are creative and it’s not just off the wall, it’s out of the park.

Forever grateful, Dean Williams

Support local business

As some of you may know, 2015 saw me plunge into the world of "networking."

None of the warm wine and nibbles and hard sales talk, so turns out it's a lot less scary than I had originally imagined. I head over to Preston before dawn every Friday to catch up with other self employed folks, put the world to rights, eat bacon sandwiches and build my little enterprise...

Businesses there include:

  • - Graphic design (that's me!)
  • - Social media management
  • - Web design
  • - Renewable energy advisor (saves companies up to £70,000 p/a on energy bills!)
  • - Pension advice (including auto enrolment)
  • - Insurance
  • - Experts in saving money on utility bills (very handy cash back card too!)
  • - Nail technician training academy
  • - Health and safety (keeping businesses compliant when it comes to safety in the workplace)
  • - Payroll and business outsourcing
  • - Plastering
  • - Carpet and furniture cleaner (free tests are available!)
  • - Printing services (saving companies between 30 - 60%)
  • - Solicitors
  • - Private and fleet vehicle and car leasing (great deals!)
  • - Heating engineer
  • - Health and nutritionist
  • - Promotional merchandiser (great for those branded giveaways)
  • - Electrician
  • - Mortgage advisor
  • - Office stationery and supplies (great savings to be had!)
If you would like any further details or require any of these services simply drop me a line. Within my job I spend a lot of time communicating via e-mail and rarely speak to anyone, so it's great to meet up with real people once a week! We even had a christmas do the other night at Blackburn Rovers, and there's a Christmas Jumper and mince pies event soon. The perks of the office job, without the actual office job which is up my street... It's also been extremely helpful in getting my name out there and gaining new contacts and clients. In return I refer the businesses above to help them grow their business too.

Anybody is welcome to come along for a visit, so if this has tickled your fancy give me a shout.
