Cuppa with the coaches 3.6.22

This week

This week at RWC, we really enjoyed the Hereford and Worcestershire Chamber's Women's Business Forum at the fabulous Pensons. Did you know they are the only Michelin-starred restaurant in Herefordshire, Worcestershire and Shropshire? Emma ran a 'Business health check and goal setting' session. To see the questions she posed see the link below! There were inspirational presentations from Bev Haywood, the owner?of Astley Vineyard, and?award-winning Clare John, from?Rowley Farm Holidays.

Client Spotlight

Dan Lee founded Chestnut Infrastructure last year with the vision to support schools and not-for-profit organisations to access the IT services they need to perform brilliantly. Dan was part of the Enterprising Worcestershire programme and worked with Esther on his marketing strategy and goals. Since the programme ended Dan's business continues to grow and he now has a team of six! Way to go Dan! You can read about his business here

In the News

There has been no escape this week for TUI and all the stories of delays and cancelled flights; so many people have been left disappointed and distraught (including Emma's parents who were heading off from Birmingham recently). The media were reporting 'Half term holiday hell' and there were many scenes at airports of chaos and confusion.

As business owners we need to ensure we can properly resource all the work we undertake and make sure we have effective planning and project management in place, too.

However, if the worst happens and we know we won't be deliver a product or service we need to proactively communicate this with our customers/clients and keep them in the loop. Do you have a crisis management strategy in place if the worst should happen?

As always, our goal should be exceeding expectations and using customer feedback to continue to improve the service we offer.
