Fit for Legacy – Olympic Legacy Programme

“We recently had the privilege to work with the Waltham Forest Business Network  when we needed a strong and vibrant team to help market the benefits of the Fit for Legacy business support programme to SMEs in Waltham Forest, and to drive new and existing Waltham Forest Business Network members to a joint summer networking and information event we held with them earlier in July.   Through the power of their social media and marketing networks, and the close working relationships that they so obviously have with the local business community, they set about the task  of  tirelessly and professionally spreading the word about Fit for Legacy, and consequentially getting over 80 SMEs to a fantastic evening event at Waltham Forest College.

Their coordination and management of the event was quick, seamless and effective, and required very little input from us (apart from initial promotional copy), and their execution of the task meant the whole thing remained effortless for us at every stage of planning …to the extent that all we had to do was turn up, preset and network!

Their pre and post event promotion of Fit for Legacy has already yielded an upturn of circa 20% new clients for us over the last 2 weeks, and we are fully expecting that to rise to 25-30% by the end of this month when we have followed up all business cards and introductions that were made on the night.

Additionally, the continued power of WFBN’s social media engines continue to advertise and promote our programme in the borough, and we are continuing to attract many new Twitter followers on a daily basis.

Quite simply, the WFBN team delivered  ….first time and on time, and I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending them to any organisation who require their marketing or event management services …these guys get it!
