The Savvy Partnership is about to launch the first of its ‘Free Friday’ workshops in Barnsley South Yorkshire, with the anti-poverty charity The Penny On Trust.
The ‘Free Friday’ initiative has been designed specifically to help small, start-up and incubator businesses, members of Savvy’s four strong management team will work for free on Fridays helping non-client business with free marketing consultancy across the areas of Marcomms, New Product Development & Innovation and Online Marketing.
To qualify for a ‘Free Friday’, applicant businesses must be of ten employees or less and based along the M62 corridor. They will also need to demonstrate a need for marketing advice in order to improve their internal and external communication, build brand, generate media interest or stimulate customer demand in order to help their business become more successful.
“The concept of ‘giving something back’ is a powerful one for all of us at The Savvy Partnership’ said Helen Freeborogh. ‘We have all been involved on a personal and business level with Corporate Social Responsibility initiatives for many years and Free Friday is perhaps our version of this. It’s about giving something back to the next generation of entrepreneurs and young business men and women”.
Director David Adams commented – “The type of businesses who approach us and the advice they will want will vary enormously and this in itself will be a challenge. I’m hoping that through our Free Friday initiative we can help the next generation of entrepreneurs and businesses out there in a very practical way by providing access to high quality marketing support at no cost. Savvy’s recent expansion in both consultant numbers and office locations means that with our combined skill set and geographical coverage we’re now in a position to do this”.
