“I bought 3 run down holiday homes on a campsite in Germany and refurbished them for rent, but I wasn't sure how to go about letting them and getting a return on my investment.

I asked John Clarke for advice and he not only gave a lot of pointers, he also helped me to set up a website and get it linked to a lot of free and low cost referral sites. This action alone has brought in most our business over the last two years”.

Brian Cannon - Cannon Holiday Homes,

 

“A friend of many years advised me once to distinguish between suppliers that were simply "order takers" and those that brought added value.  John Clarke has brought "added value" to our relationship for many years in marketing our company to stand out from the masses”.

“I always wanted to have my own property letting business, but did not really know where to start. After a few troubleshooting sessions with John I now know exactly where I am going and am successfully running my business. John himself even came up with the name.

I am extremely grateful for his help and expertise”.

“My business was at a crossroads. Sales were slowly decreasing year on year in our normally busiest niche area.

We were spending money in the wrong areas of promotion and advertising with little effect.

Expertise was required.

I was introduced to John Clarke.

In a few meetings John put us on course to very good effect - ie We increased sales and market share.

His methodology with regard to increasing sales and promotion, without costing a fortune, is bulletproof if pursued consistently”.

Vincent O'Hara - Marlay Signs, Brass & Sign Specialists, www.marlaysigns.com

 

“I set up Cake Expectations a few years ago and was very lucky to have John Clarke introduced to me as my business mentor. I received excellent advice and support on marketing and was very encouraged by new ideas that John brought to the business”.

“I needed advice on setting up Markettown.ie to provide Reader Offer products to the national newspapers in Ireland. John was most helpful in the formation of the business plan, advice on how similar companies operated in the UK and in providing helpful brochures and literature.

His help in reviewing the progress of the business, questioning and examining assumptions I was making, and suggesting new products and ways of expanding the business were most helpful”.
