Most of my business comes through local networking, including the Best of Eastbourne #EBTweetUp and building links with other Best Of members. I have recently begun working with a high quality business professional, and had a meeting with him yesterday. I had to ask how he found me as he is not a local business. He explained the process he went through which included a lot of online research to find the right type of consultant to suit his requirements. I was delighted to hear that his journey started with looking at my profile and testimonials on the Best Of. Proof that the Best Of Eastbourne does really raise your profile - not just in your local networks, and can bring some very valuable business to you. A testament to David's efforts!

David is a star! Very supportive of his membership and wider community. Have been a member of the best of Eastbourne for 3 years and it has been great for my business. Highly recommend David and the Best of Eastbourne.

Big thank you to Michael for installing our Guest Wifi which will enable our customers to check in with Facebook when they visit, and benefit from a free secure connection whilst they are with us. Great service and most importantly, secure!

I needed new photos of me and my team for a rebrand. I chose Sarah as I had seen her work with other business customers and felt confident she would be able to help us produce high quality original images for our new branding. And that is exactly what she achieved! The shoot was informal, relaxed and put us at ease - which in itself is no mean feat as we were both nervous! Super delighted with the results. We have a good stock of great images to use to promote our business on and offline. Thank you Sarah

Well done David for creating great events that support local businesses. #EBTweetup continues to grow from strength to strength. The Marketing workshop for Best of members was also very well done. David your support continues to be invaluable and greatly appreciated! Thank you

I have used One answer for over 2 years for my Public Liability Insurance, and recently went to them for my Employers Liability Insurance. They offer a prompt efficient service and are very competitively priced. Why go online when you can experience great customer locally for a great price? Highly recommend

I am always absolutely delighted with the service I receive from the team at Chatfields. I always come away with the perfect gift. A fabulous place to buy great presents for the special people in your life.

Really admire Sarah's photography. She has a great way with people - bringing a sense of fun as well as professionalism in her portrait photography. Love the picture she took of me recently and am looking forward to working closely on projects in the future. Highly recommend.

What a great concept for an event. Lots of local 'expert' business people giving up their time to offer free advice and guidance to other local businesses on a vast range of subjects like IT, Recruitment, and more! I was one of the participant Experts and thoroughly enjoyed the day! The venue was excellent, and I managed to bag some time with other experts making it jolly worthwhile. Hope the event is repeated in 2017 so others may benefit. Good Job David!

One Answer have been looking after my insurance for over a year. Their advice and customer service have been truly first class. Can highly recommend One Answer for your commercial insurance requirements.

Got some fabulous advice on recruitment from Mandy Brook at the #AskTheExpert event This is a great agency with a fabulous reputation and the advice I received was marvellous - thank you!

Went recently to select a present for a dear friend. Staff were excellent in helping me find the perfect present giving me lots of choice for my budget. Love going to Chatfields. The staff go the extra mile to make sure you get the right gift

I have been a member of the best of Eastbourne for 2 years. David works tirelessly for his members. Being a member has been great for raising my business profile and for networking with other lovely Eastbourne businesses. Highly recommend to other businesses wishing to raise their profile and improve their online marketing,

I have yet to use Artemi myself, but have seen the result of recent photo shoots for people I know and I am very impressed. A great portrait photographer with a real skill for getting people relaxed and in their natural character. I will most certainly be using Artemi in the not too distant future and would recommend for Portraits - family or business

I always go to Chatfields when I have a special gift to get for a loved one and they never fail to solve my present conundrums. Exceptional customer service, great range of gift ideas and stunning jewellery, My favourite shop!

Just experienced spectacular customer service from the team at One Answer Insurance. I had a change of circumstances and they were able to accommodate the change and deal with all the detail for me. My second year with One Answer and I don;t think I will go anywhere else. Highly recommend!

#EBTweetup is fabulous informal networking event. David makes everyone very welcome. It has been going for almost 5 years and I remember going to the first one! I must rather like this event quite a bit! Well done David with this event, looking forward to celebrating 5 years

I have to leave David a review for his continued support of my business. Ditzy Media is almost two years old now, and throughout my time in business I have been a member of thebestof Eastbourne. Thebestof Eastbourne has definitely raised my profile locally, helped me meet like minded local business people, as well as other community organisations through #EBTweetUp. David himself is a great support to his membership. I highly recommend thebestof Eastbourne to other local business owners looking for ways to raise their profile in Eastbourne (and beyond!)

I have worked with Simon during the course of the year, as well as worked for him. My experience of Simon is very professional, approachable and very supportive of other small business owners and charities. Simon is very knowledgeable in his field and I understand has produced some great results for his customers.

Thank crunchy for Chatfields! Had two very important presents to buy for Christmas and I found them there. Excellent customer service as always and a great selection of gifts for ladies and gents. Highly recommend this fine jewellers to all

Went to Cineworld a few weeks ago to watch Spectre. Always a delight to visit Cineworld. Staff are friendly and it's a nice environment. Will be back there within the next week or so to watch Star Wars - can't wait :)

This review is super overdue! I have been a customer of the Afton Hotel for several years now. Jason and his team offer exceptional customer service. The venue is charming and spacious and just great for hosting business events. You can be sure that Jason and his team will look after you and your guests. A huge thanks to Jason and his team for looking after me over the years - good job guys!

I am completely blown away by the customer service I have had from One Answer. From Brooke to Harrison - nothing was too much trouble in transferring my Public Liability and Professional Indemnity away from my previous broker. I was delighted to Buy Local and the best part was they saved me quite a bit of money - which I was not expecting. A great team and a big thanks from me!

David organised a fantastic Buy Local Expo this week. Everything was meticulously considered and organised well. Sadly David could not control the foul weather, but the event was a success nonetheless. The businesses and visitors that attended were a testament to his efforts, and I have heard loads of people say they want the event back next year. Good Job!

I have known David professionally for many years and have watched him work tirelessly in his quest to promote and support local businesses, charities and Eastbourne through the Best of and Buy Local. When I decided to take the leap from employment to becoming a small business myself, achieving membership of the Best of was a must do! David is a champion of small businesses and our community

Chatfields is your go to place for unique, elegant jewellery. The staff are welcoming and friendly. The range of their products covers a wide range of tastes and budgets. A great place for present buying - for yourself or other loved ones!
