Seminar being hosted by Rebecca Weaver of Gumshoe UK
Customer service is vital towards the building of any business
With businesses constantly competing for new custom, it can be difficult to keep an eye on your quality of service. It can also be easy to forget about your existing clients. This is one of the biggest mistakes businesses make, as it costs more to obtain new clients than it does to retain your existing customers.
By increasing your service quality you will build customer loyalty, grow your reputation for good quality, and of course, increase your profits.
This seminar will teach you the importance of delivering high class customer service and how to perform basic benchmarking tasks to help build customer loyalty whilst increasing your profits, all at the same time.
GumshoeUK is an independent consultancy offering hospitality management advice for the hospitality industry and licensed trade. They have the knowledge and resources to assist in your business.
Their consultants have a successful track record in both business and hospitality and are committed to providing service and market analysis to our industry.
They realise that each business will differ from one another, from a large chain restaurant to a small guest house. If you need advice they can help.
Driven by the desire for excellence and a passion for the industry, GumshoeUK can offer you easy management solutions made understandable, workable and most of all realistic.
What people are saying about GumshoeUK
"I am writing to you following the recent “mystery call” project that was so successfully carried out on behalf of the Buckerell Lodge Hotel, Exeter by GumshoeUK.
My original expectation was that we would ascertain how well or badly we were handling calls regarding our Christmas arrangements but the report we received far exceeded these expectations. Both the content and presentation of your findings were of a very high standard.
I would particularly comment on the professionalism that was shown throughout and the summary and recommendations that were given gave us an excellent training tool which we have already used. We have been able to identify training needs as well as give some “pat on the backs” where appropriate.
As a result of the training that was identified, we have already converted some enquiries that would probably have disappeared and the team feels much more confident.

Build to deliver: Questions and answers
Our workshop is for any business that is experiencing, or anticipating, 'change' within their business or their sector. Through an interactive session, businesses will learn how to make the most of the opportunity that change brings, by using their brand more effectively.
Some examples of 'change' a business may be experiencing are:
• Launch of a new product or service
• Change in focus of existing service or product
• Acquisition of another business
• Change of target market
• Arrival of new competitors
• Change in customer behaviour
But we are really interested to know what the changes are in your business and the challenges that you're facing. What do you want your brand to do for you? We've started a discussion on the Business Network SW group page on LinkedIn, to give you the chance to tell us what you want to hear. So go on online and ask a question. We'll bring the answer!
In the seminar we'll run a series of short, interactive exercises to help you find those answers. Well help you to understand what your brand is and what it can do for your business. You will learn how your brand can:
• Attract new customers
• Increase your market share
• Help you to retain existing customers
• Sell to your target market
Attendees will leave the seminar with a list of activities that will help them to unlock the value of their brand, and make the most of the opportunities that 2010 has to offer.

Unravelling the complexity of health and safety
Health and safety is something that every business in the UK needs to take very seriously – for their own good. But it’s no secret that for most people, health and safety is complicated, boring, stressful, overwhelming – or all of the above. In fact, the government recently identified this as a problem right around the UK.
And for good reason. There are literally hundreds of rules and guidelines to follow, so it can be confusing or overwhelming working out what needs to be done. But what you must not do is ignore this area of your business or get it wrong.
The good news is that, there’s a solution, or series of solutions, available for you right now. And if that’s music to your ears, you’ve landed on the right website.
The very reason that SURETEAM exists is to completely remove the stress of health and safety compliance from our clients.
After working with us you’ll have everything that you need to have your business up to scratch in areas which really matter, without the stress and tedious complication of having to do it yourself. And our guarantee to you is that we won’t make it complicated.
If you’re thinking generally about health and safety and how to get your business compliant then there’s no better place to start than here. Just ask and we can put together a special report for you, revealing the latest trends in health and safety as well as helpful tips on how you can work smarter towards being compliant.

Her love for people, her interest in other cultures and her eternal optimism were a source of inspiration for many and once she returned to the UK, she knew that she wanted to help other people to be as happy and fulfilled as she was. She decided to become a life and career coach.
