December 2006:Online Spending Surges
Britons will spend 55 per cent of their Christmas present budget online, or an average of £237 each, with around 70 per cent of the population buying gifts on the internet.
November 2006:
There are now more than 100 million websites on the Internet. Small business is said to be the main reason for this explosive growth.
Peter Van Zelst, the Senior Partner, has had nearly twenty five years practical experience of running a Small-Medium sized business at Managing Director/Owner/Entrepreneur level.
Like anyone who’s set up and run a business on their own, Peter has done just about everything himself, from sweeping up and making tea to negotiating multi-million pound deals. He has learnt what he is good at and what he isn’t good at. He is learnt what he enjoys doing and what he doesn’t enjoy doing. Most importantly, he has learnt when it’s best to do something yourself and when it’s time to call in an expert.
Now, as an Accredited Associate of the Institute for Independent Business, and member of Northern Business Associates, Peter has access to over 3,500 highly experienced and talented Business Men and Women locally, nationally and internationally, with specialist skills in every discipline and industry you could imagine. This gives you access to absolutely whatever expertise you need.
Perhaps the most significant thing Peter has learned is that no matter how good you, how clever you are and how hard you work, when you’re running a small business you’re often too close to the business to see the wood for the trees. As an unbiased, experienced, professional adviser, Peter can help you see the wood for the trees.
In addition to mentoring Entrepreneurs and Managing Directors to achieve higher levels of success from their business, Peter is a specialist consultant in Internet Strategy and helps companies to achieve optimum results from their online marketing activity.
Peter has an MBA with Distinction from Leeds University Business School.
