IT’S A SPORTY SUMMER FOR THE TEAM AT THE VIRTUAL BUSINESS CENTRE!

July has been bountiful with warm weather, making Wimbledon a glorious event, and with British Open Golf on the way, there’s certainly no doubt it’s a splendid summer in our country!

Today we speak with Claire Brewerton, who works for The Virtual Business Centre, which can be found here  https://www.virtualbusinesscentre.com/. Claire and her team focus on telephone answering telemarketing and post-sales technical support. Claire gave us an update on how July is going for her and her team.

What are your plans for July in your business?  
We attended the South West Business Expo last week at the STEAM in Swindon. I managed to connect with a lot of renowned companies and promoted The Virtual Business Centre. Win, win!

What are your personal plans for this month? 
I had a significant birthday at the end of June - hopefully, by the time you read this, I will have completed Race For Life! I participated in the 5K race in Cheltenham and was a finisher too.

Information and donations for Race For Life can be found here: https://raceforlife.cancerresearchuk.org/find-an-event/cheltenham-racecourse-5k-2022-06-26-1100

Do you like sport – and if so do any sporting tournaments or events stand out for you this month? 
Yes -  I enjoy watching Wimbledon. Personally, I practice Pilates and yoga, and have recently started jogging; It is certainly true to say I enjoy sports! 

July 17 is World Emoji Day - this often trends on social media. What do you think of emojis? Do you use them? 
I love emojis! Although apparently, according to the children, I am not always using the right ones! 

Can you name one business you’d like to give a summer shout-out too? Who has gone the extra mile for you recently? 
Definitely Chilli Promotions, who can be found here https://www.chillipromotions.co.uk. They provide quality merchandise to get your business noticed at events; Jody has helped source promotional material at short notice for the Swindon business show, so a shout out to her!

Are you raising money for charity or volunteering this month in any way?
I completed the Cheltenham 5K Race for Life - I am delighted to say I have raised over £400 for cancer research with donations still pouring in!

Have you got any services or special offers you’d like to mention? 
We launched a pay-and-go service for ad hoc telephone support -  you can find more information on our website. It is perfect for holiday and sickness cover, or whenever you are out of the office.
