One of the things we love about running our little business is the amount of variety involved in the job. As well as the obvious tasks – like serving breakfast and cleaning rooms, we’re also required to be variously a handyman, clerical assistant, book-keeper, decorator, gardener, interior designer (and many more besides). We like the fact that the business is small enough that we can get our hands dirty.
Just recently we’ve been wearing our marketing hats rather a lot too. It’s part of the business that we’ve long neglected, (note the time that’s gone by since we last posted something in this blog), but upcoming changes to the law about data protection have prompted us to rethink how we do marketing.
As you may be aware, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) comes into force on Friday. After this time businesses can only send you marketing if you’ve specifically opted in to receiving it. This can only be a good thing as it gives you much more control over your data.
So, the first thing we’re doing is collecting email addresses of anyone who’s interested in hearing from us.
At the moment your inboxes are doubtlessly full of emails asking if you want to stay in touch with some company or other that you might have had dealings with in the past.
You may have even recently received one from us asking you to sign up to our new mailing list.
If you didn’t then you can sign up here:
In June we’ll be sending out a newsletter to everyone who’s signed up – and it’ll include an exciting competition.
So please sign up and if you know anyone who may be interested then tell them about it too.
