TRUMPET BLOWING AND BLOGGING

By Helen West

Whilst sitting with my foot in plaster and having been ordered to keep it elevated for at least 3 weeks, I’m sort of restricted in all areas of my life! My Consultant said he would give me sick note for 3 months – who do I give it to? Myself? I’m running my own business here and I don’t want to be out of it for 3 months!!

Mobility considered –I’m not able to get out to meet people at the moment, so it’s a good opportunity for me to update my Social Media, read blogs etc because that’s what everyone is advising me to do. I have embraced social media and am really enjoying learning more about it every day and meeting people on-line (even though I prefer the face to face meetings)
Like everybody else in the business world, I am trying to let everyone know what we do and inform them as to what the benefits would be to them by working with Redvoice.

OUR ‘SLIDING DOORS’ MOMENTS – THE REASON REDVOICE IS HERE

An opportunity arose for us to submit an article for an online business network – to let people know about their businesses (with no hard selling).  Helen jumped at the chance and spent a happy couple of hours producing the following.  It’s a good exercise to take time out from your busy working lives to think about what it’s all about and to reflect on how it all started, why and where we are now.  Enjoy the read.

Well, in amongst all the hard work of networking, meetings, delivering training, hosting events, presenting and acting our Victoria is also training for the Edinburgh Marathon which takes place on 22 May 2011.

The serious training commenced on 2nd January and since then she has now racked up an impressive  136 km and burnt 10,388 calories!!!!  Every day starts, come rain or shine, with a run through the woods and along the canal with the dogs, culminating in a big run on Sunday morning (which gets bigger as the weeks go by)

We are just loving the diversity of the people we get to meet and work with here at Redvoice.

We  spent a VERY enjoyable day at the York Races in September courtesy of our friends at Blacks Solicitors in Leeds (we came away £25 up on the day!!)  and through them, we met Gerard Brophy who is the Yorkshire Cricket Team wicket keeper.

WE’RE ACCREDITED WITH THE SRA

2010 has been such a busy year for us – creating and developing Redvoice. During this time, we have met and talked to so many lawyers at networking and business events. It was evident that they felt that they really needed what Redvoice has to offer in the form of communication training with particular reference to presentation skills, particularly in this economic climate where so many of them are now having to go out to source and secure new business for their firm, where competition is fierce.
