“I’m a complete novice as far as Facebook is concerned, yet I left this short course confident that I now know enough of the basics to get started. I would highly recommend Chat Marketing and will certainly use them again in the near future for my own and my staff training needs.”

“My knowledge and understanding has grown due to the fantastic tutoring and support through the year that I worked with Alan.It was a big task as we have 6 completely different companies but with Alan’s knowledge, strategic approach and helpful nature, myself and DP&L are succeeding!”

 

 

Anneka Morgan Digital and Social Media Marketing Co-ordinator, DP&L Group, www.dpandl.co.uk

“I have recently attended one of Alan’s social media courses (Facebook4Business) and was impressed with the content of the course. Previously I have engaged in social media within business because ‘I should’ but in only the space of a morning Alan detailed the benefits of social media and outlined the importance of having a clear strategy (which I am eagerly putting together).

Booking the course was easy (and good value for money), I was sent regular reminders about the course. On the day the event was well organised, well delivered and informative and I was given information to take away with me to refer back to. Social Media can be a minefield but Alan made the path a little clearer for me. I look forward to the next two courses I have booked with Chat Marketing.”

Helen Wilson Sales Executive, The Landmark Hotel

“I am delighted to recommend the services provided by Chat Marketing and have already chosen to do so on a number of occasions. Since my initial encounter with Alan, when he presented a public workshop that I attended, I have found him to be extremely helpful and very reliable. I consider Chat Marketing to be experts in their field, offering the most up to date and very best advice to help our developing business manage our social media presence in a value for money way. My experience of working with Chat Marketing is that they really do put the interests of their customers out front and central in everything they deliver.”

"Even though I've been using LinkedIn extensively for a couple of years I still enjoyed Alan's recent Linkedin4Success training seminar and learned useful new features of which I had been blissfully unaware. I'm not usually one for seminars but Alan's chatty, informative style was refreshing and made for an enjoyable session."

Rob Scott Owner, Dunsmore Consulting

I would thoroughly recommend your services”

 

 

Derek Keiller Owner, Derek Keiller Advertising, www.derekkeiller.co.uk

“I run a successful Business management company offering services to small to medium sized businesses, and as such manage a number of Facebook Pages on behalf of my clients.

Like all social media channels, Facebook is ever-changing, so I am constantly on the lookout for the latest techniques to help my clients get more fans, enquiries and sales from their social media presence.

I attended a half-day ‘Facebook Advertising’ workshop with Chat Marketing and within only a week was noticing measurable bottom-line results. One of the Pages I manage attracted 78 new Likes, obtained 12 enquiries and 5 bookings, all within 2 days and for an investment of only £40. Another client obtained four consultations and two bookings from one £30 advert and I managed to fill 90% of available places at a special Open-Day I was hosting, through Facebook.

All in all, for the cost of coming on the course and learning how to do adverts it has been more than worth it! Alan’s expertise and continual support and advice pre and post the course is invaluable and has made a huge difference. I would recommend using Chat Marketing for all your Facebook training from now on.  It's all about the customer service and that has been fab!”

Caroline McKenna Owner, Lifemac
