Busy as a little bee

Life has been really busy of late - I am trying to get companies to sponsor the Run for Heroes fun run in Swindon next June, so far without much success and yesterday I was appalled to receive an email from Jordans who make those yummy cereals wishing me luck with my swimathon! Again it was a thanks but no thanks email but a swimathon for god's sake don't they read emails properly???

I have also been trying to get the band some gigs and have been on twitter as I have made friends with a few people with a view to getting gigs. Fingers crossed I may have picked up a support act slot for this coming Monday with The Damned.

Trying to get back to my studies as well - I have assignments to write and yet have no time these days. I guess I shouldn't complain as my business seems to be taking off..I have been invited to quote to organise 3 seminars about divorce. Have been networking like crazy - I am now the marketing assistant for Birmingham Longbridge 4N group (a voluntary post) and I have been tweeting, facebooking, yakking on the phone, yakking on skype and I have been advertising too. Managed to get a free advert in CES which is a huge directory that goes out to big businesses who may want help organising their product launches etc, got a paid advert in Hospitality & Events North too. I no longer see the point in advertising in wedding magazines because I have had zero take up and I refuse to waste yet more money.

Visited a fab venue the other day, it is only available for use at weekends and bank holidays - its the Council House in Birmingham, their banqueting suite is to die for and for £1200 plus VAT people can hire it for the day..you also get the museum too for that price.
