Women Inspiring Women National Awards. Fran has had many health problems and is deaf and yet she is generous, good fun, a networking queen and an amazing business woman. My Words: What happened in Précis. In 2010 I started First Call Financials without a client or a friend in Bristol but was determined that it would work. With no contacts in the local area, it was never going to be easy. I started Networking, offering my services in book-keeping and accountancy with a rather unique add-on service of payroll solutions for disabled people. Soon I was getting referrals and even work with local authorities in Wales.
At this time, the only health issue I had to overcome was my deafness and ensuring I took a monthly tablet for osteoporosis which was the result of earlier Breast cancer treatment. Using the phone, which is a must in my line of work, is very challenging. In 2011, my health took an unexpected turn for the worse and I found that I had even more challenges to overcome. Two years ago, I could not walk. NotFromBolton : Thank you Ma'am for your support... Bristol Airport teams up with BeepTreat to give passengers mobile discounts – Bristol Airport.

Bath Ales is a well-loved West Country brewery with a loyal following. But by engaging with them on social media sites, the brewery has got closer to its customers and sales have increased dramatically as a result. Rachel Miller reports. Social media has not just become accepted as a marketing tool — it is now at the heart of many firms’ marketing strategies. It’s not just one way to connect with consumers – it has become the core method of communicating with people. Social media expert Peter Kay of consultancy Not From Bolton — to distinguish him from his comedy namesake — has worked with one of the West Country’s best-loved breweries, Bath Ales, introducing Twitter and Facebook to its marketing strategy.
This monitoring has demonstrated the power of social media. Improving online sales for Bath Ales “The result was that Bath Ales saw an increase in online sales of 56 per cent,” he reveals. The secret of the success of Peter’s approach was to use social media to listen. #Donate4Denise - 0845 123 4444 @DetectiveDenise needs your support.. Tantilising Thame and That Fiona Bray. 4 Sighting is a great benefit of 4N membership.
Stef has stated many times in the past that any 4Ner not 4Sighting is not realising the full value of their membership. As is often the case the man is absolutely right. When I think back to when I first started networking and on that fateful day nearly throwing up as it came closer to time to stand up and give a little information about my business to where I am today, its quite some progression. I will freely admit that presenting was something that really terrified me, it. It is a demon I have had to face down at every opportunity. The great thing about 4N is that it gives me 4 chances to do that every week, I know I still have a way to go but at least I can face those deamons amongst friends.
Tomorrow, I am in London having been invited to run two seminars by Triodos Bank for many of their clients. Before I was a member of 4N the prosepct of this would have terrified me but I have been invited to do this as they see me as an expert in my field. I #Love4N.

Who really is the 4N "People's Champion"? We are about to find out. Kim Hambley #LOVE4N. As we enter the final week of the #LOVE4N competition I thought I would have a stab at it one more time, not for myself but instead for the man who has been an ispiration to many in the network. This man was the first person to welcome me along to a 4N meeting and has continued to have a big impact on me since. Mr Kim Hambley you are a living legend :) Many of you will know and love him as he has been an active member since the very early days and has made sure that he has spread his own particular approach to 4N with everyone he meets.
For me personally Kim has had a big part to play in my own development as it wasn't too long after joining 4N that he brought me into his team and made me the group leader for that little unkown group just down the M5, you know the one Gordano. Unfortunately as many of you will know he has been a little under the weather recently that resulted in him ending up in Hospital at the weekend. Put a big smile on his face and show your appreciation :) Thame Business Networking - 22/06/2011 08:00:00.
