We’re thrilled to announce that Outside ideas has secured our third client in two weeks. Active Autos have taken a full branding and sales package including logo and identity design, website design and promotional materials. 

We today signed an exciting contract with AJ Machinery ltd to produce their very first website.  Over time the owners had come to realise the importance of being able to profile their current stock online. They spend a good edeal of time each day emailing pictures of machines to clients, the new website, due to be finished at the end of the week will allow them to upload their inventory to the site and save a great deal of time.

Our long awaited meeting with Angela Beeston from business Link happened today. What a lady, she’s a dynamo of Ideas and we had a great time generating ways of increasing our awareness amongst our audience. Angela gave us some great advice on networking events, ways of presenting our information and what we should do over the next few months in terms of getting ready to make money.

She also helped us set goals and encouraged us to sign up to supplier matching, a free service from business link which puts you in touch with the suppliers of services you need. We found Angela to be a brilliant business link adviser, she had some great banter and some even greater advice. Outside ideas look forward to a long lasting relationship with Business link and especially with Angela.

We highly recomend a meeting with Business Link for every small business.

Make you’re mark is a fantastic organisation that encorages British youth to get involved in enteprise. We’ll be responsible for raising the profile of entrepreneurship within Hampshire and to encourage more young people into a life with them as the boss. WHAT A BRILLIANT ORGANISATION. We’ll be involved with enterprise week coming up on the 18th November so give us a shout if you need some help with your event.
