Tips to keep up with business trends and this week’s Local Business Spotlight

Posted: 29 January 2021


Sk Local Business Spotlight 02

The business landscape is constantly changing and it’s important to adapt if you want to keep up. Is your company up to date with the latest marketing and industry trends? Here are a few tips to make sure that you stay ahead of the curve.

  • Set aside 10 minutes each day to research the latest trends, or at least 30 minutes once a week
  • Take advantage of technology and various apps available that may be relevant to your service or product
  • Join Facebook groups and organisations that are specific to your industry and involve yourself in the chatter. Community groups for example can be low hanging fruit in terms of responding to immediate needs from the public in your area and making a sale
  • Keep in touch with your customers and take careful note of their feedback
  • Observe your competition

This past week, we featured three local businesses that work in a variety of industries including care solutions, online shopping and heating and plumbing engineers. 

Hale Place Care Solutions

These friendly faces are two passionate members of a team that manages Hale Place Care Solutions, the organisation we feature in today’s Local Business Spotlight. This team goes above and beyond to make sure that elderly people living with dementia in Kent spend their final years enjoying a high quality of life. This includes incorporating fitness into daily routine, celebrating special occasions and welcoming family for visits.

Prosperous Way

While this family-run business is renowned for importing modern and trendy furniture

from Turkey, what many don’t know is that the team behind the company also has some serious forklift skills! Prosperous Way has been operating for a little over a year, selling their products on various e-commerce platforms including ETSY and eBay. 

Find out more about the work that earns them multiple 5-star reviews on their Instagram page.
