Ask The Expert was a brilliant event. There were lots of experts there with various fields of expertise. This gave many businesses the opportunity to learn and to gain new ideas and contacts.
Everyone there was very friendly and approachable. It was lovely seeing the local MP there also. David hosted the event and shone. He really does excel in this area and his passion for what he does is evident. Roll on the next one!!

A fantastic event that will no doubt grow to be even more valuable to both experts and attendees.
I was fortunate enough to be able to give some advice attendees and it felt good to be able to pass on knowledge and help them overcome some potential hurdles within their business. Absolutely looking forward to next years #ATE event! Thanks David!

I went along to #AsktheExpert event that David organised not really knowing exactly who I wanted to talk to but after arriving and having a quick chat with David he pointed me in the right direction. I spoke with three experts and made some great connections. Fantastic event! Thank you from Happyjacks Soft Play.

I went to the Ask The Expert event on 9 November. I found this to be really worthwhile and I came away with loads of ideas and some useful contacts. I will certainly be attending the next one and I would highly recommend anyone out there to come along too!

Always good to come to anything that the Best of Eastbourne is doing, especially as it cements the glue that means local businesses work more together, I liked then recent #AskTheExpert event, the location worked well, and look forward to future events in 2017, as we work on our event programme for 2017, Jingle Bells....

Thanks Helen 200 reviews and counting :) Great to be able to help so many in Eastbourne.
Once again David has surpassed himself and delivered a fantastic event in Ask the Experts at Pacific House, Eastbourne. I was one of the experts and I can honestly say it was one of the best events for me in a long time. I connected with a lot of the Best of members and some non members too. Really looking forward to the next one. Thank you David

Working tirelessly to promote us all and putting events together like Ask the Expert yesterday he exemplifies the hard work and effort needed to make a business successful and in turn his members successful. We can't fault him.and that is why we will continue to work with him to be the best that we can be. Thank you from all the RSE Group Ltd team .

Many thanks for organising and for your kind invitation to the AskTheExpert event.
It was a good opportunity to see some new and familiar faces all who are passionate about supporting local people and local business.
As a guest it was refreshing that the exhibitors were primarily interested in offering support and advise which was well received.
I wish you every success with future events.

Thank you James, always a pleasure to point someone in your direction as I know you will take extra special care of them.
The Best Of Eastbourne has been an invaluable source of information about local businesses, many of which featured on Lookalikes Series 1 for Channel 4.
Thank you so much to David Ruddle for all his ongoing support of the production.

The best of Eastbourne (David Ruddle) has been brilliant, he has helped us grow confidence in attending network meetings, and given us a lot of information on marketing and advertising the business. He is very quick in his responses whenever we have needed him, and knows exactly what your company needs to progress.

Thanks Helen, always happy to help a business that supports Buy Local as much as you do.
David has been incredible so far. I joined TBO Eastbourne 6-8 weeks ago and already have and have had plenty of work come my way due to his networking events, meet-ups and his kind word of mouth. His communication is 100% in understanding and is never late to reply. Looking forward to the future with David.

You are welcome Sabrina. Thank you for all the extra blog posts :)
Thanks again to David for continually finding ways for members of Thebestof Eastbourne in front of their potential customers. As a B2B business the #AskTheExpert event is right up my street.
Thanks also for all the Marketing Workshops that I haven't left a review for, it's a great way of learning and talking to other group members about what is working for them.

Thank you Simon, great to have you along as always. Some great contributions to the workshop.
The membership of the Friends of the Hampden Park voted back last year to encourage me to work towards bringing a Hot Air Balloon event into Hampden Park. Since I first contacted David to help me promote the Eastbourne Hot Air Balloon Festival he has worked tirelessly coming up with ideas, suggestions and practical help. It is now an International Festival with balloons coming from visiting countries; it will be a 2 day event on 29th and 30th July 2017 in Hampden Park. It's aim is to bring an Eastbourne event into the heart of the community, to promote local people and local businesses. We hope to ensure that all participants from entertainment to sales stands are local people and groups thus promoting the best of Eastbourne and what it can offer and keeping the proceeds in Eastbourne. Lots of work ahead but excitement too. Thanks so much Best of Eastbourne. Sandy Boyce-Sharpe, Chairman of the Friends of the Hampden Park
