Greetings!
With economic recovery within touching distance, if you haven't already done so, now is the ideal time to re-evaluate every aspect of your business. Marketing and business plans are a must if you are serious about taking your operation into this new era. The way we all look at marketing has changed; gone are the days of throwing large sums of money at non-productive advertising. Shrewd (inexpensive) return on investment driven strategies are the key to economic growth for the small to medium business sector. If you would like help with effective marketing and planning, you can call us on 0800 612 2008 or simply follow this newsletter, either way it's free. Here is an opportunity to get you started; networking is a way of meeting like minded business people that will promote your brand - imagine having 30 appointments in one afternoon! It is a guaranteed, low cost way of sharing ideas, creating new partnerships and finding new prospects that are looking for you. Plus, it's fun and interesting!

Hi, I'm Steve Beecroft and I am Managing Director of Consulting Smart Ltd. We have been in business now for 4 years, but have 20 years business consultancy experience in total.
We are based in Shoreham by Sea, and we provide Business Transformation consultancy specialising in smart cards, wristbands and key fob schemes. We also sell pre-paid cashless systems. We are part of a wider industry of Smart Technologies including Biometrics and Near Field Communications (NFC) on mobile phones.
Our ideal client is one whose customer base is similar to a membership in that they access the same services, buildings, network systems i.e. staff of a local / national company, supporters of a football club, holiday makers at a holiday village, residents of a local authority, guests at a hotel, visitors to a theme park or attraction etc.
We have a special offer on at the moment; we are offering a free Discovery Session and Tailored Concept Report, which will allow your organisation to understand how a smart card scheme can help you cut costs, generate more revenue or simply provide a more secure environment.
We are the largest local company in our industry. There are many other consulting companies around this area, but none of those cover as many sectors as we do, which is what makes us special. Our 5 year plan is to grow market share in each sector, and double our turnover in years 1&2, and then increase by 50% thereafter.
I am new to Keepers' services, and looking forward to developing a productive working relationship with them in the coming year. Primarily, I am looking for sound financial guidance and so far my expectations have been exceeded.
