Monday 29th October 2018 (4th entry) - general HMHB update

Posted 12:40pm

So, here we go with our fourth entry for today - this time covering our general HMHB news.

CORPORATE
We are looking to work with corporate clients - as it appears getting finance from the public sector is proving very tricky - despite everyone loving our idea and concept, as well as asking to see our evidence. I am sure contracts can come, but we need money to prove our outcomes and get us established.
Therefore, public sector is now where we are looking,  We have designed and developed a day even around our values, and feel we have a concept and product we can take to corporate companies, in exchange for sponsorship. Scott is helping us develop contact information, and we are creating a database of big companies to approach - and will look to be doing that next week. It is a huge undertaking, but we need seed funding for salaries and running costs.

PUBLICITY
I am looking around to see just how we can get ourselves noticed and followed - on social media as well as regular media.
We recently overhauled our website - but it is crucial we get that properly up to date - with gallery and blog pages running behind - as well as features on fitness sessions. Lazza has also decided that a couple of the new changes are not working - and we must get that all changed quickly - especially if we are contacting corporate clients and pointing them towards the site.
We also must do daily entries - that shows people we are fully focused and working hard. With thar in mind, we are looking to greatly increase our video presence on Youtube, and have come up with a title for videos that no-one is using at the moment - so we can stand out.

ACCOUNTS
We have a qualified accountant overseeing our first non-dormant year accounts, and they will be going into HMRC next month. We felt it important to have an outsider complete these, to be impartial and ensure everything is correct. He also recently did our PAYE on the two month lottery grant money we received. Sadly Lazza is back on Universal Credit now, so another reason to fund seed funding as quickly as we can.

OVERALL.
We have come so far in the last two years. Great strides. The programme has developed into a unique, fun, interactive event, and the feedback has been sensational. We are constantly looking at ways we can improve it. All we need is the money so we can stop worrying about the future and start concentrating on providing the best possible service we can.

Thanks
