I recently met Kath through Ferndown Business Network and immediately knew she was an expert in her field. Having recently launched my new business Veteran Entrepreneurs I needed to come up with a creative and vibrant logo that epitomised my business from a first look. We booked a quick call and before I knew it Kath at Spike Design was helping me understand what my business was about which helped her understand what my logo should ’say’. With a really quick turnaround within a couple of days we had the first drafts and with Kath being a perfectionist we worked on a couple of iterations. I now have a great logo which ’speaks’ about our business.
I can’t recommend Kath at Spike Design highly enough, she is engaging, easy to work with, and keeps working until you are happy and the job is done. Thanks Kath !
I recently had some new business cards designed by another FBN member, Kath at Spike Design and asked Harry Bidgood at Anything Printed if he could sort out the printing at short notice as I was attending a national conference. Harry stepped up to the plate, worked with me with the proofs and delivered ahead of schedule and of the highest of standards. If you need any printing doing, Harry must be your first point of call. He works tirelessly, often against tight timelines imposed by people like me who do not take that into consideration when planning such things. I highly recommend Harry at Anything Printed.
Ferndown Business Network member Just ask Juli is a fantastic idea and is delivered with a high level of professionalism and has a service focused ethos. Juli has been working with me on a weekly basis for a few months and I am so pleased to have come across her when I did. Recently, I was required to step back from my business unexpectedly due to illness and Juli has been able to keep on top of the administrative tasks and keep the impact on my business to a minimum. Juli stepped in and with minimal training and direction she has understood exactly how she is best able to support my business. As I am now fully recovered we are exploring other skill sets that Juli has that I can also benefit from namely, marketing, training, client retention and compliance. Juli’s contribution to me and by business has truly improved my wellbeing, strengthen my business and has allowed my business to stretch to the next level which was not possible without her support.
