I have been a member of thebestofbury now for around four years. For the first 12 months or so I didn't really make the most of the tools and support that I had. After encouragement from the team (and a few pushes) I now engage more and appreciate that the more that you put in, the more you get out. The team help me get the best from my membership and push me to do so. This has made a huge difference to my business and I now get continual leads and referrals as a result of my membership. I now use thebestofbury to it's full potential and would recommend others to do the same.

I have spoken to Kathryn a couple of times now when needing a local service. She has always been extremely helpful, efficient and polite. I know from past experience that I can always rely on recommendation from her. Many thanks

Aspire joined the Best of Bury this year and as a result we have experienced a number of key benefits, the main one being an increase in turnover. Due to the nature of our business, as a training provider, we survive by meeting entrepreneurs and small businesses who would benefit from our service, the Best of Bury are experts at making these connections possible. Their networking events alone are worth the membership as they provide great opportunities for business owners in Bury to get together and help each other be successful, it really is a team effort. Since joining the best of bury, not only have we seen an increase in business but we have also benefitted from the knowledge of the team. Specialist areas such as Marketing, particularly Social Media and Advertising, have improved thanks to the advice given from the team. Another thing that works well for us are the review cards. We already collect feedback from our customers but find it difficult getting that feedback out to others, the Best of Bury helps solve this problem by putting all the comments on their website which is directly linked to our own.
In summary the Best of Bury has expanded our reach and enabled us to get our message out to more local businesses. The opportunities presented to us by regularly attending Networking and Social Events has been invaluable and will hopefully continue.

We opened our Bury office in March 2013 and immediately joined thebestofbury.
We know that with any membership organisation you get out of it what you put in but the great thing about the team at thebestofbury is that they continually remind you to send them material that they can use to help you to promote your business. Nothing is ever too much trouble and what we like is the consistency of excellent service regardless of who we deal with from thebestofbury’s office.
Put simply, we see thebestofbury as an extension to our marketing team. We are busy working on dozens of marketing strategies across the firm and in Bury our focus is on building relationships with both businesses and individuals in the town and the support we receive from thebestofbury has really helped us to do this.
We really enjoy their networking events and expos in addition to their member-only training events. All of our staff take it in turns to attend the monthly membership meetings and we always find something new to get involved with as a result. We also like that they bring new initiatives to us, introduce us to potential clients when opportunities arise and keep us updated on important events taking place in the borough.
We couldn’t recommend becoming a member of thebestofbury highly enough whether you are a sole trader or larger company. For AFG LAW, it’s a pleasure to be one of Bury’s best businesses!

I started my business a year ago and was mainly leafleting. Work was coming in but very slow. I wanted to work smart and get support and advice. A friend recommended me to thebestofbury and from the start, the advice and support was there along with advertising and marketing on my behalf for one small monthly fee.
Since the beginning, thebestofbury have inspired me, given me ideas and advice that has been invaluable. One of the main things they do is connect you with local business networks and with introductions. the relationships that I have formed have taken my business to the next level. I can honestly say that I would not be where I am now without them.

I can honestly say that we are blown away with the service we have received from the best of bury. Myself & Aspire have benefited greatly from our relationship so far. We have been a part of the group for 3 months & the staff made us feel welcome by looking after our needs, getting us involved with other local businesses & constantly offering us chances to network and build a rapour with potential clients.
Phil has been very helpful from showing me the ropes of networking, passing possible business our way and even the small things like remembering our names right from the start. He gave us information, supported us in development of our products and advise in which way to move forward.
The best of Bury team are very efficient, always asking if there is anything they can do to aid our company, go out of their way to make sure you receive the best possible service.
They make the whole process fun, enjoyable and a pleasure to be a part of. Helping us grow our business and benefit the whole community.
Overall I would say the service at the Best of Bury was great and would recommend to anyone in the local area. Thank you to all the staff at The Best of Bury. 5 stars.

Just a quickish note to reflect on what was an excellent evening last Thursday at the Village Hotel for the Bury Expo.
As a member of BBG I manned our stand for part of the evening. The response was very encouraging and from the evening we received lots of requests to visit the group.
The venue is impressive and therefore i am sure that first time visitors gained a good impression.
The volume of people attending created a 'busy feel ' to the evening without being overcrowded.
The refreshments were excellent and the open bar was too tempting (my problem and nobody else's.)
The organisation was spot on.
All in all, a very useful and enjoyable evening.
Regards
John Sullivan

“An extremely busy and successful night at the Best Of Bury Expo. After attending and exhibiting at the last 4 Expos, last night was most definitely the busiest I have ever seen it, not only was the number of companies exhibiting at its highest the attendance was phenomenal and a real credit to the team at the Best Of for organising such a well attended event.
There was a real diverse mix of businesses that really brought different benefits to one another, to share ideas with like minded individuals, and to enable to promote their own business in an open and relaxed environment.
Look forward to another successful Expo this September!
Cheers

The expo was a fantastic night with amazing opportunities to meet fellow local Bury and Bolton businesses. Such technological know-how and expertise! I was proud to come from Bury and be a part of that self-made culture.
I will definitely be attending the next one. Maybe we’ll get the opportunity to chat next time.

Hi Kathryn,
I just wanted to let you know how impressed I've been with The Best Of Bury since joining in November.
Although I haven't fully taken advantage of all the resources available , i'm staggered by the response we've had.
The new clients we've worked for and the projects we've undertaken through your recommendation have really made our membership extremely valuable.
I'm really excited for the future of Urban Decor and with your continued support, see us expanding further as a result.
Keep up the good work.
Best Regards
John

Dear Phil,
I am writing to thank you for what you personally,and your colleagues at "thebestofbury" have done for my business Jacob's Ladder. As you know it was an aspiration of mine to be considered the right type of business to feature on thebestofbury for many years and I was delighted in January 2014 to finally join the team.
Within weeks, you, Kathryn and Debi had given me so much valuable advice about how to best promote my business, but more importantly how to gain customer reviews from the many clients I have built up, one by one over the past 8 years.
As you know, in the early days of building my business, featuring on thebestofbury was a dream, working part time jobs and building my client base one landlord at a time.
I am therefore extremely proud to have just been voted "Most Loved Letting Agent" in Bury, so on behalf of my business, and all of those other businesses that you spend time helping, I would like to take this opportunity to say thank you.
I am excited where my humble business can go, with friends like you and the team at thebestofbury. Yours sincerely,
Simon.

I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed the 'Making the Most out of Your Membership' session at MWB this morning. It was just what I needed after a busy, stressful week. It was full of great information (I made 3 pages of notes), I met some fantastic new people and heard about some local businesses I didn't even know existed before. I can't wait to visit 'Leckenby's' Tea Room, they seem really nice! I feel very privileged to be part of this community, thanks again! Simon
