I became a Bestof member in 2010. I was ready to take my business to the next level but as I was new to the area I was finding it hard to find clients for the new services my business was offering. As a book keeper, I was getting referrals but as a Virtual PA I was drawing a blank.

Through the website, social media platforms and networking events Helen has introduced me to some amazing business people in Furness, some of whom have become clients, many have become friends and to some I have become a customer.

I am sure that in time I would have met many of these businesses but Helen and thebestof bought it all together much faster, helping me grow my business much quicker and we are thrilled with the results.I sing Helen's praises where ever I go and as long as I am in business and there is a bestofbarrowandfurness, I will be a member!"

As a business owner I find networking invaluable and as a bestof member I found that the Breakfast Club enables me to meet with other like minded people keen to grow their businesses. I have met some great people and received some very positive referrals, these are clients I would never have known about if I had not made the most of my membership and attended for Breakfast. The meetings are not too structured so the atmosphere is relaxed, encouraging people to chat amongst themselves, thus building friendships and trust which then leads to the opportunity to work together or refer business to each other. Monthly meetings are perfect as it doesn't put too much strain on family life, and I can still go on to the office and get a full days work in. A really great benefit to my membership.

Helen gave a presentation at the Furness branch of the Federation of Small Businesses and explained how thebestof would help promote highly recommended businesses in the area and what the area has to offer.

I was impressed by Helen's introduction about her self and her enthusiasm for thebestof and her vision for the business in Furness and how it would help great local firms.

I felt her ability and personality to engage myself with others would make the this work and I became one of the founder members.Since joining the scheme as a Gold member I am encouraged by the regular newsletters,offers and community events featured on the site. Helen reguarily keeps in contact which is very reassuring.

I am looking forward to supporting Helen to make thebestof a resounding success in Furness!
