Small Southeast Businesses, Want Big Results?

July 2, 2012 - PRLog -- Did you know . . .

The southeast region in England, which includes Berkshire, Hampshire and Surrey, has the largest number of businesses of any region in the UK, and subsequently could be placed as the 31st largest economy in the world! However to put this into perspective, if the internet were an economic sector it would be the UK’s fifth largest.

This is great news, but also means the local area is extremely competitive and so a strategic advantage is needed to make your business a success. Every business will need a good website and online marketing strategy to make this happen. This is where Harriet Bishop Marketing & Design can help.
