Complete One extend market reach into Glasgow

Newcastle-based events promotions firm, Complete One have extended their market reach into the largest city in Scotland.

Speaking about the new project, Managing Director Glen Lowes revealed the excitement amongst the firm’s contractors. “Any venture into a new market is always met with great excitement and anticipation. We recognise that with growth comes opportunity,” said Mr. Lowes. 

The new project in Glasgow sees the firm now possess market reach in Edinburgh, Glasgow and Sheffield. Glasgow is the biggest city in Scotland and the third biggest in the United Kingdom, coming after London and Birmingham. The Greater Glasgow area has a population of 1,199,629 according to the 2001 census. On population alone, Glasgow is a great city for talent acquisition. Crucially there are also a tremendous number of high footfall events and venues in and around the city, which is a coup for the firm operating exclusively events marketing campaigns. 

At Complete One they attribute much of their success to having a culture of development. Managing Director Glen Lowes is passionate about developing others. At Complete One they believe that the key to their continued success is the unrivaled development opportunities they offer to their contractors, something they are able to do by having a meritocratic approach to business growth. The event marketing specialists do not pre-judge applicants based on education or experience, but rather take into account work ethic, student mentality and personal and professional development. 
Through the firm’s business development opportunities they have a proven success of developing young professionals into successful businessmen and women. Complete One argues that it is their commitment to education that reaps rewards. By offering on-going advice and guidance through optional workshops, seminars and conferences, Complete One provides the opportunity for their contractors to expand their skill set and acquire knowledge to set them up for future success. 
This latest growth spurt puts the firm one step closer to their goals for 2016 as they push to break the £1million turnover barrier. Managing Director Glen Lowes is confident that 2016 will be the firm’s most successful year yet. “We have a client portfolio containing many of the UK’s industry leaders and a group of contractors that are some of the most ambitious and talented that I have ever worked with,” said Mr. Lowes.

Their main focus is to bridge the gap between clients and consumers through in-person promotions. At Complete One they promote the fact that their people are their business and their commitment to providing everyone who comes through their doors the opportunity to learn and develop their business acumen is paying dividends, as is evident by their latest expansion.

Is your business 2016 ready? Complete One reports key changes to be aware of

Complete One urges business owners to stay up to date with key business changes that will be occurring this year to ensure their stability, future prospects and profits are not hindered due to negligence. 

2016 has already seen some key business changes announced by the UK government which have had a severe impact on the future of some UK businesses. Moving deeper into the second half of 2016, there will be many more changes happening that businesses need to be aware of that could severely affect business stability, future prospects and profits. Complete One warns businesses that they need to be aware and prepared for more changes including:

The increase of the National Living Wage - In April, 2016, the National Living Wage was increased to £7.20 per hour, which has resulted in a lot of businesses (large and small) having to budget for these changes. Small businesses will have been hit harder because of the limited resources to go around fairly.

Dividend tax regime - Businesses don’t have to pay tax on the first £5,000 of dividends, but new rates have been announced for dividends over that threshold.

Brexit - The UK’s decision to leave the EU in June 2016 will have reverberations on UK businesses because there will be significant changes to trade deals and the UK economy will be in a state of unpredictability due to the level of uncertainty surrounding Britain’s economy.

Visa Debit fees - Changes to the way that Visa Debit fees are calculated will come into force in September 2016.
