How to wear this season’s trends in a business environment
We are really excited about this event as it will be held at Hobbs in Canterbury’s Marlowe Arcade where we will have exclusive use of the shop. The evening will start with a champagne and canapé reception at 6pm followed by a look at the different looks on trend this Spring/Summer presented by Jane Wallace from House of Colour. Then there will be time to network & shop. Hobbs are offering us 20% discount on the night plus a goodie bag to take away. The evening will close at 8.30pm.

Become the ‘Go To’ person online
Online marketing, social media and networking are starting to sound a bit tired within the small business world. Everyone seems to be a social media expert and, seemingly, every other person you meet can help you to get more clients! Most of these ‘experts’ are missing a vital point. Gaining clients and selling to them is all about the relationships that you develop.

• How to build your business profile through online (and offline) social networking
• How to use social media to drive website traffic and position yourself as an expert / ‘go to person’
• Tips for networking effectively online and offline

A chance to hear from some of our creative members. Hear how a piece of silver becomes a ring, or the inspiration behind why they chose to concentrate on certain types of jewellery.
