Sisters are doing it for themselves

Sisters are doing it for themselves

Two entrepreneurs from Derbyshire with more than twenty-four years of experience have joined forces to offer practical advice to help businesses through the economic slowdown.

artsderbyshire member Essential New Media, founded and run by Deborah Porter, has been trading for the last three years giving professional advice to businesses on how to realise their potential on the internet. Working with clients throughout the UK such as Derbyshire County Council’s Derbyshire Arts Partnership, The National Association for Music in Education and London Stills, she has built herself a reputation for delivering measurable results providing clear direction on how to maintain effective websites.

With fourteen years of experience working within the internet industry Deborah offers a wealth of knowledge. “My approach is simple; I offer straightforward advice and implement practical solutions to help organisations get the most out of their websites. Websites are one of the most important and effective marketing tools in this demanding world of instant information and it is difficult sometimes to understand their potential for opening doors to new customers. The clients I have worked with have ranged from small regional organisations to larger national operations that have been running a website for a number of years. ”

Following in her sister’s footsteps Sharon Stevens-Cash has recently launched Essential Marketing Solutions offering a wide range of marketing services to companies who want to increase their bottom line and improve their competitive edge.

Sharon has worked with a range of brands over ten years in senior marketing and communications positions and thrives on the challenge that lies ahead. “Marketing for me is a passion and it is too often absorbed into another function such as sales or customer service. Marketing is a tool that all businesses use to varying degrees and in these difficult economic times it is even more important to use them effectively, saving time and money. I have worked with many budgets varying from £75,000 up to £750,000 but the principals are the same and used in the right way they are just as effective regardless of the size of the budget.”

Deborah and Sharon both pride themselves on their professional approach and are driven by helping businesses stay ahead of their competitors. One of the services that they offer is a range of reports that are tailored to an individual business costing only £99. Deborah explains; “the idea of offering these simple reports is to demonstrate our commitment to providing quality information and advice without the big agency fees.”

Sharon adds; “our combined range of services offers customers the freedom of working with time served professionals without the complicated language usually associated within our industries – marketing and the internet is about getting results not about using jargon.”
