  • I engaged Jo Long to enhance our online presence when launching our new product & service. Jo is an ultimate professional, knows exactly how to establish your needs, the threads that make up your service offering and how to link it all.

  • Jo thoroughly understood our entire business proposal. From the work Jo did, we were able to see certain flaws. Jo was an asset to our business, and a credit to herself providing an efficient & professional service and consistently kept us up to date with her progress. The business plan she aided us in creating was comprehensive and allowed us to access higher levels of funding otherwise out of reach. We would highly recommend Jo, and we would love to work with her in the future.

  • Jo has been helping on a new brand and online promotion plan in the beauty industry. I have a little marketing background but found it incredibly hard to focus on what I wanted for my own business. Jo listened and was there to help me find clarity and a better vision for what I was trying to achieve. She has an excellent ability to really listen to what you want which was invaluable to me. I wouldn’t be where I am 6 months later without Jo's expertise, insight and overall patience. She continues to support me and will always be my first go-to for Business Consulting. Thank you, Jo.

  • I would highly recommend Jo. She worked with me on the development of my Bloome brand, in particular looking at marketing, pricing strategies and promotional offers. Jo is strategically minded and looks at the whole picture not just the specific area of concern. She is so easy to get along with and very experienced in all areas of marketing.

  • I have worked with Jo for the last year. She’s great to work with, full of energy & ideas with a real 'can-do' attitude. Nothing is too much trouble. The films she produced for our company were exactly what we wanted and our social media work gave us insights to include in our strategic decision making.

Does a business need both? What a great question! How many other businesses feel the same? Surely if you’re making sales, you must be […]

Expo Wins and Fails

I recently attended the North East Expo, always a great event for showcasing a plethora of businesses, as well as great speakers. It’s great that so many businesses are there, but it’s sometimes hard to pick out the ones that are truly relevant to solving the issues you’re facing. That’s where it’s absolutely vital for […]

Funding Options, something not to be dismissed by any business

I recently had a comment from a business owner relating to the fact that I highlight on my website that ‘funding options’ are available. They seemed to think that it could be misconstrued, implying that if you clicked for more information it gave the impression I offer. Or alternatively, it was a last resort for […]
