The Difference A Network Can Make...

When I first met Neil I felt immediately that here was someone who was going to have an impact on the Association of Young People with ME (AYME pronounced aim).

Since that day over two years ago Neil has become an advisor, friend, advocate and champion of the charity. If we need to know how to contact someone or find a service in the area we go to Neil and he never lets us down.

A great example of the work he has undertaken is his promotion of our 2006 Charity Dinner. The first event for AYME of this kind in Milton Keynes and it was a real success. We sold out with a high percentage of those attending promising to support future initiatives.    

AYME wishes Neil all the best with his new venture. Anyone working with him will quickly see how effective he can be.

AYME and Affinity – a real working partnership .

Having set up an office in Milton Keynes it soon became apparent that I needed to build up the brand of my company within the local business community.

I was aware that the networking scene was very strong in MK but was unsure and in truth un-enthusiastic about accessing it. I read Neil’s article and it seemed too good to be true, someone to steer me through the process, introduce me to the ‘scene’ and importantly the key decision makers in my target audiences.

In truth it has been better than I could have hoped, Neil has paid for himself, to coin a phrase he does what it says on the tin and the best testimonial I can give is that I had no hesitation in renewing our contract.

Thanks for your time yesterday; I have to say that I felt really motivated to get out there after my meeting with you .

Neil’s reputation in Milton Keynes is something that takes years to achieve so I was delighted to know I could take advantage of it without all the hard work!  It’s not just that Neil knows a lot of people in the business community – he makes a point of getting to know them and their business and only introduces like minded, reliable people to each other.
Through Neil’s connections I have secured major business and because of his enthusiasm and understanding of what I do, he did a big part of the selling for me too.  Thanks Neil – your service is invaluable and I will have no hesitation in recommending you to others .

A friend of mine recommended I meet Mark when I started talking about starting my own business and I'm glad I did. Mark has made a great contribution  of ideas and  people  to Student /networking and his support and constructive comments and knowledge  have helped me turn what was once just an idea into a business..

Mark Shaw came very well recommended and he lived up to his reputation. He used his knowledge and experience to help us design some of our services and now he’s an important member of our team. Working with Mark can save you a tremendous amount of effort and money. It’s well worth it and I’d recommend him to anyone who wants to grow their business quickly.

I had a wonderful meeting with Mark today and see why he is so well thought of. Mark is brilliant at focusing minds and through his questions and connections helping others to discover whether they have a 'real business' and who they need to meet to make their business fly. I would recommend you experience Mark's Dragon Den approach.

Mark is a truly great guy.....His ability to listen, understand your business and connect you with the right people to help is a rare quality. Mark and his Affinity Business Connections have just connected me with potentially the most influential contact I have met in progressing my career.

Steven is master of connections because action is the right word! Thank you so much for your kind words and real interest about myself! I will be happy to improve with us the speed of trust!

Kindest Regards from Douro Valley!

 I spoke with Steven for the first time yesterday. We clicked because we have the same business ethos - trust, honesty & integrity in everything you do. Steven immediately wanted to know about me and my business and has offered to introduce me to various contacts which he has which have synergy with my business for which I thank him.

I shall be meeting with Steven hopefully during February and I am sure we will have a positive & constructive meeting. Steven you come across as a genuine, selfless person willing to hep others plus you are a dedicated father (which always goes down well with me). I am glad we are now connected and that we have agreed to meet

Warmest Regards

 Steve was invited into my company to help reduce our overheads on our Telecom Expenditure. Working with Steven was a pleasure. The change over was 100% hassle free and in the 5 months that I’ve been using Focus4U I’ve already cut my bills by £500.
I can thoroughly recommend that you do the same.
