Thank you so much!

After a day peppered with difficulties, not least because I had to return to London to Fredericks Restaurant in the Angel where I had earlier listened to inspirational speaker Barbara Cassani MBE, to collect my mobile!

It was such a joy to receive the following testimonial from Maxine Lake of Beach Glamour – “1230 website really works for us at Beach Glamour – One of our customers attended our fashion show after checking out 1230 website and this is the text message received after the show: ‘What a lovely surprise to see so many items to catch the richness of the colours and the flow of the beautiful materials they worked so well with beachwear and beyond. Teamed with linen the kaftans took you into the evening and my favourite is the white georgette kaftan with the pretty detail on the back. A fab show well done.’ Beryl C
Thank you 1230! Maxine & Lucie www.beachglamour.co.uk ”

Tomorrow is another day – see you soon!

A Huge Thank You

We would like to say a huge thank you to all the 1230 members who came along and supported us at our fashion show at the Croydon Fashion Festival on 25th June.

This was the first showcase for our designs and the response was fantastic.

Thank you once again for the wonderful comments about our designs.

Malmesbury 1230 Launched!

1230 TWC has reached the South West, and 13 wonderful talented women attended the launch of Malmesbury 1230 TWC. Thank you so much to Jackie and Penny for coming down to support the event, and thank you to all those that attended – we are truly off to a flying start!

Holidays are in the air – in more ways than one!

I was intrigued to read earlier this week about the latest ploy of travel agents desperately trying to boost flagging sales. I gather they’ve been pumping exotic aromas into their shops, hoping to remind customers of magical moments from previous holidays and entice them into making a booking.

Evidently the aromas range from orange groves to evoke the Mediterranean, new-mown grass to remind us of golf holidays, pina colada for romantic breaks and a sea-breeze scent for ocean cruises. I can’t begin to imagine what scent they may have conjured up to remind us of safari holidays!

It’s certainly true that consumers want real value for their money at the moment. That’s one of the attractions of Hapimag’s long-term holiday system. A one-off investment in holiday shares provides a lifetime of rent-free holidays in 56 fabulous locations, plus a valuable asset to pass on to next of kin.

Sadly I couldn’t make it to my usual 1230 Mayfair group meeting last month (I gather from Jackie’s blog that it was a brilliant meeting), but aim to make up for it in July.

Just in case you haven’t read “Special Offers” recently, I’ve persuaded Hapimag to give away an extra week’s holiday to any 1230 member, or individual referred by a 1230 member, who joins Hapimag.

For further info you can check out my Profile or visit the UK website at www.hapimag.co.uk. Watch the film, explore the resorts and, if you like, request our Information Pack. Oh, and do put 1230 in the Promotional Code field, so that we know where you’ve come from.

Or, if you want to bypass the formalities, just get in touch with me on 07743 027455 or at susan.tindale@holidaylegacy.com

A Big Thank You

A big thank you to all those who made theSevenoaks Meeting such a success this week Lots of great networking taking place. It is lovely to see month by month how member’s businesses are growing and how people are finding ways to diversify in these times of change.

A big thank you to Alison Prangnell and Gemma Holmes from Odyl design who brought their own touch of glamour with their beautiful new collection for the more well endowed lady ~ stunning designs and I wish them all the best with the launch of their new website.

Alison and Gemma very kindly donated an eelskin bag for the business card drsw and this was won by Bridget Kelsey of Syntony Image.

Many of you will know, that the meeting on Tuesday was the last one I will be chairing in Sevenoaks so this is a very poignant time for me

I took over the group from Caroline Aitken in April 2008 and it has been such a pleasure to run. I am passionate about networking have gained so much confidence from running the group. I am sure it will go on to flourish and wish it and it’s members every success in the future

Love & Blessings

Guide to 1230 TWC website

Just experienced Jackie’s guide to the 1230 website, how wonderful, cannot remember the last time I learnt so much in such a short space of time and from such a calm and patient teacher. I would recommend it to everyone!

GR8 call

just spent some time with Jackie and 2 other members learning more about how to promote myself on the website and what all the different buttons mean, and look I have blogged already!

Launching 1230 in the South West

I’ve been happily busy this morning inviting people to the launch of 1230 Malmesbury on July 2nd, at 2a Restaurant, Silver Street.

I’m looking forward to the Malmesbury launch being the first of 3, others to be in Swindon and Bath in September.

I’ve also just had some excellent training from Jackie on how the “back-end” of the 1230 website works, and feel ready to show my prospective new members all that 1230 can offer.
