Boutique hotels, country houses, private estates..

This year, 2012, has all been about one fabulous project.

Woodhall Manor is a beautiful estate on the outskirts of Woodbridge, with 14 beautifully appointed bedrooms, my job is to shout loudly about all that is on offer.

So far, we have introduced a comprehensive Sales and Marketing plan, commissioned the design of a new website, introduced a list of services for the Corporate market, both local and national, overhauled the financial controls, including a detailed budget template. Salesforce is now configured and working with reports, market segments and detailed lead and conversion information, all specific to Woodhall Manor.

A PR guru has been appointed, enquiry conversion rates have increased, a new fire plan has been introduced, an operations team have been deployed and briefed on achieving a 5 star service. We have made front page news... phew!

This month, its all about the food and beverage. A new wine list awaits tasting (a tough job but someone has to do it), a complete overhaul of all of our menus and systems and procedures that would stand up to the scrutiny of the big corporate boys.

Does this sound like something your business needs? Call us.

2011 was all about The Truffle Pig. 

That and another favourite client The Main Ingredient. This project was a tag team job with my talented husband David Williams. He worked with James, developing menus, sourcing suppliers, talking organisation, teaching technique. A hands on, get involved job.

I worked in the background, talking with James about branding, we developed a new website, booked ourselves in to present our wares at an upmarket wedding show and worked on the basics of managing a catering business from profit conversion to cook offs.

We retain most of our clients after a big project has launched. Always on the end of the phone for support and motivation.
