Peter Carroll, MD Seymour Transport Ltd

“I have worked with Howard over several months now.  During the winter, my company lost a great deal of work due to the dramatic consequences of the recession.  I became aware of an opportunity to secure new business during February and March which would replace all my lost turnover and put my company back on the road to growth.  I asked Howard to put together the prospectus to win this business.  I needed something that would differentiate me from the competition.  Howard did just that.  He designed a produced a very hard hitting and persuasive set of documents.  I won the business and started the new project in early May.  It was the difference between success and failure for Seymour Transport.  On successfully concluding the negotiations, the new customer told me that he had never received such an innovative and professional proposal from a transport company.  Since that time, I have retained Howard as a trusted confidante and business advisor.  I recommend his services enthusiastically and without reservation.

Apart from the personal business which I have used Howard Cox’s company for perhaps 3 years or so, I am also the Chairman of the Governing Body of a large school specialist sports college and Howard has been extremely helpful in improving our communication processes, he has also been just priceless with his ability to create a marketing program for us. The creative, inspirational work he has done for all my companies has been a real “eye-opener” for us all, in as much as what a well planed marketing campaign can achieve by using intelligent electronic facilities that I never even knew existed. Normally I am fairly reticent about providing recommendations, however in this case I have to date been extremely pleased with each & every job that Target Data have been asked to perform for us, I am therefore pleased to offer my commendation for his work and ask that you take this as a valuable recommendation for you to use Howard’s services. I am confident that you would be happy with both the creative energy/content and standard of work.

Quotes from delegates to Social Networking Seminars presented by Howard Cox

"A very worthwhile day. I definitely need to follow it up with more practical help on how one actually takes a SN strategy forward Howard does a great job of demystifying Social Networking, particularly for those of us who grew up thinking the only things that twittered were birds!"  Nick Duthie

"I found the day a good introduction to social networking - it has given me a guide as to how to start and where to focus my energies on. I found the day very informative, well structured and relevant to my needs.  also it was run in both an enjoyable and professional way"  Andy Homewood

"Very enlightening, I found, but I would be concerned to set off into SN without some guidance on strategy, and a helping hand to avoid making a mess, that would be regretted later.  Excellent instant boost for novices, and more advanced folk"  Philip Ingham

"Very useful and informative. A lot to take in but with the associated CD you do have more time to digest it all.

You could do worse than spend a day with them."  Ian Perry
