Small businesses are vital to the success of the UK economy; and most UK businesses today are small. Just over 2.5 million UK workers are self employed – this is one in eight of all workers. It is from these small companies that tomorrow's big names will probably arise.

Small businesses such as Citipeak Events develop and prosper for many different reasons. Citipeak Events outline their top three below:

1.They develop personal relationships – small businesses are in a perfect place to build and develop personal relationships with customers. Person-to-person interaction is as important as ever in building strong relationships and ensuring future business growth. 2.Inventiveness and innovation – small businesses are well positioned to introduce and develop new ideas. The reason for this is because the owners of small businesses do not have to seek approval from anyone else. 3.Responding flexibly to problems and challenges – in a small business environment there is little hierarchy or chain of command. This means that their operations are much more flexible and they can reach a quick decision on whether or not it can do what is required.

<![CDATA[ Citipeak Promotions: Superior Leadership Produces Higher Returns than Superior Talent ]]> https://pressat.co.uk/releases/citipeak-promotions-superior-leadership-produces-higher-returns-than-superior-talent-c82f9140db167e085f1ea70fe4070dd2/ https://pressat.co.uk/releases/citipeak-promotions-superior-leadership-produces-higher-returns-than-superior-talent-c82f9140db167e085f1ea70fe4070dd2/ Tuesday 11 November, 2014

Citipeak Promotions review the beliefs that strong leadership is more important in business success than having a superior talent.

Organisations should operate in a way that allows for ordinary people to accomplish extraordinary things. Charles A O'Reilly & Jeffery Pfeffer highlighted in their book 'Hidden Value' that companies from various industries that can demonstrate a strong track record of success, had cracked the code on how to build a healthy culture in which people can flourish.

The usual factors that companies hold necessary to winning are 1. Giving high potentials the bulk of development opportunities. 2. Putting high potentials into jobs prior to them being ready. 3. Eliminating the least effective performers. Citipeak Promotions believes that companies can function well with good, solid people and should ensure that there are effective leaders throughout the organisation.

"Talent is something that a person is born with but effective leadership is a skill far more capable of being developed" said Nick Johnson, Managing Director of Citipeak Promotions.

Citipeak Promotions believes that leadership is not limited to a few people, but that people can change and develop significantly. Through effective leadership, organisations can create a winning culture that enables everyone to function at its best. Effective leaders create a positive culture and make it possible for ordinary people to achieve extraordinary goals.

"People who are effective leaders help themselves and others to do the right things. Leaders set a direction and build an inspiring vision. Leadership is about mapping out where a team needs to go to 'win' and it is dynamic, exciting and inspiring" added Nick Johnson.

Citipeak Promotions believes that most people can be developed and nurtured into becoming an effective leader, but outline some qualities that will accelerate this development and that will eventually be found in all strong leaders.

Awareness – leaders will be aware of how their role fits in with a company. Leaders are not managers yet, and will be aware of the nature of this difference and accept it. Decisiveness – leaders need to make tough decisions and will understand that in certain situations, difficult and timely decisions must be made in the best interests of the company. Confidence – the best leaders will have a contagious confidence and don't give in easily when challenged. Honesty – strong leaders treat people how they want to be treated and are extremely ethical, believing honesty, effort and reliability form the foundations to success. Optimism – the very best leaders are a source of positive energy and are problem solvers, not problem finders.

Citipeak Promotions is an event marketing and sales company based in East London. Established in early 2010 by ambitious businessman Nick Johnson, the firm generate and run low cost and high effective sales and marketing strategies for their clients.

<![CDATA[ Going Green! Citipeak Promotions Review the Simple Steps to Make Your Small Business Environmentally Friendly ]]> https://pressat.co.uk/releases/going-green-citipeak-promotions-review-the-simple-steps-to-make-your-small-business-environmentally-friendly-93d20e3c1589265baf93c7c1059dd858/ https://pressat.co.uk/releases/going-green-citipeak-promotions-review-the-simple-steps-to-make-your-small-business-environmentally-friendly-93d20e3c1589265baf93c7c1059dd858/ Thursday 2 October, 2014

As an increasing number of people are aware of the impact global warming will have on their lives and the lives of future generations, there has been a growing demand for environmentally-friendly products. Citipeak Promotions review the simple steps that small businesses can take to become more environmentally friendly.

For small business owners there are benefits to being green that go beyond simply knowing the company is doing the best by the planet. More and more consumers are aware of the pressures on the environment and small business are able to meet the needs of consumers who want what they’re buying to be socially and environmentally responsible. It also helps lead the way for other companies who are looking to set up more sustainable business models.

With so many products and services to choose from, it has never been more important to differentiate from the competition and going green is a great way to stand out.

Whatever the industry, Citipeak Promotions believes there are plenty of ways to tailor services to the burgeoning green client base. The firm review these 5 simple steps to ‘Going Green’.

1 Use TechnologyEncourage communication via email or phone calls. Email messages should be read onscreen to determine whether it’s necessary to print – if not, don’t! A business can also reduce paper use by focusing on online advertising. Directing people to the company website will provide much more information about the firm and what it does. Less paper means less outlay on printing, and more potential clients; a win-win for the business and the environment.

2 Have a Company EthosA company ethos can make a big difference when it comes to the attitude of the workers. When establishing a company ethos, it can be extended to other areas of the business including encouraging staff not to print out emails, using public transport and turning off computers and equipment when not in the office.

3 Use Energy Saving Light BulbsAlthough initially, an energy saving light bulb is more expensive, they last significantly longer and use much less energy; all helping towards saving the environment.

4 RecycleNot only can a business find ways to recycle products, they can also buy office supplies and products made out of recycled materials. There are certain companies such as Green Earth Office Supply and The Green Office that sell environmentally friendly office supplies such as recycled paper. Special recycle bins can be installed, so office paper, newspapers and other recyclable items used within daily business operations go to the recycling plant rather than end up in landfill.

5 Turn Off EquipmentWhen not being used, all equipment should be switched off. This can reduce energy use by 25% and turning off computers at the end of the day can save an additional 50%.

Going green may seem to be the latest trend, but Citipeak Promotions believe it is a trend with a variety of benefits for business owners. Applying green processes creates a healthy working environment, reduces unnecessary waste and recognises the role that businesses play in leading the way for social change. Citipeak Promotions urges more small businesses to take the plunge and Go Green!

<![CDATA[ Citipeak Promotions Reviews the 4 Habits You Need to be Successful ]]> https://pressat.co.uk/releases/citipeak-promotions-reviews-the-4-habits-you-need-to-be-successful-b1241f927ac5f49ec7c03843ca5efc8e/ https://pressat.co.uk/releases/citipeak-promotions-reviews-the-4-habits-you-need-to-be-successful-b1241f927ac5f49ec7c03843ca5efc8e/ Tuesday 30 September, 2014

Want to be successful in business? Then follow these 4 habits from Citipeak Promotions.

Citipeak Promotions believes that the most successful people in business maintain and master good habits. ‘At the company, we have come to realise that what people do on a daily basis and where they direct their energy has a definite impact when it comes to achieving goals that have been set’ explains Managing Director Nick Johnson.

Citipeak Promotions believes that business is a skill, and those who are successful in business will show signs of different work habits to the majority of people. Success is not easy. Most people gain success through trial and error, but Citipeak Promotions believes that by learning and adhering to certain habits, success will become more likely.

The firm outline below the 4 habit that they consider a person needs to be successful:

1  Focus your energy

In order to achieve a high level of success, a person must learn how to direct their energy towards the most rewarding tasks. One of the biggest mistakes and barriers to success is that many people direct their energy towards low-valued tasks (these are usually considered to be easier!). The high-valued tasks are the ones that have the potential to bring the most reward to an individual and the business.

2  Ability to prioritise

High achievers will never lose sight of what their major goal is. Goals must be priorities in order of importance and each goal that is accomplished must bring you closer to the achievement of the main business goal.

3  Can project and complete tasks

Being able to start something and follow it through until it’s been completed is a major factor for long term success. Too many people set unrealised tasks, which never get completed. Make your tasks realistic, and the chances of them being completed increases. You will soon be able to look back over the small tasks and realise that you have reach long term success.

4  Have a Positive Mental Attitude

All successful people have a positive mental attitude (PMA). A great percentage of people have all experience some sort of setback. A person could just call it a day after the setback, instead a PMA about the ability to achieve gives people the power needed to continue and reach set goals. Citipeak Promotions believe that creating a PMA is the most important habit that should be incorporated on a daily basis.

Citipeak Promotions is London’s most successful event marketing and sales firm. Based in the vibrant area of East London, Citipeak Promotions strategically plan event marketing campaigns to increase their client’s market share.

Nick Johnson, Managing Director of Citipeak Promotions is travelling with fellow business partners to Scotland to attend the 40th Ryder Cup.

Successful businessman and keen golfer, Nick Johnson will travel up to Scotland to attend the Ryder Cup; dubbed as the ‘greatest tournament in Golf’. He will travel with fellow business partners, also enthusiastic golfers, to the PGA Centenary Course at Gleneagles to support the European Team in the hope that they will retain the tournament trophy they won two years ago against Team USA in Medinah.

This year is the second time that Scotland has hosted the Ryder Cup; the first time being back in 1973. The Ryder Cup is a men’s golf competition between two teams, one from Europe and one from the USA, and is named after English businessman Samuel Ryder who donated the trophy.

The 2014 Ryder Cup will be held at Gleneagles in Scotland. Gleneagles is home to three championship golf courses, regarded as among the very best golf courses in the world. The PGA Centenary Course has been chosen for the 40th Ryder Cup, where the cream of European and American golfers will battle it out to win the trophy.

Nick Johnson is an avid golfer and all round sportsman, with the belief 'if a person has a dedicated interest or participates in sport they will make an excellent business professional'. Nick Johnson believes that sporty people have all the ingredients to become successful leaders in business.

‘There are striking parallels between those that play or have played sport and business leadership,’ said Nick Johnson. ‘Fierce competition, coping with pressure, winning by sometimes the smallest margins, achieving goals and targets, hard work, perseverance and deep-seated determination are just some of the characteristics that sport prepares a person with, which can seamlessly be transferred into the business world’, added Nick Johnson.

Sportsmen and women have most likely failed more than they've won, but they always get up and keep going. Nick Johnson believes that in the workplace, this trait creates a great worker who will find a way to win. The managing director of Citipeak Promotions lists his top 5 reasons why sports people make great business professionals.


They’re achievement orientatedThey’re resilientThey’re strong communicatorsThey’re team orientatedThey manage time well

<![CDATA[ Want to be a Better Leader? Citipeak Promotions will Show You How. ]]> https://pressat.co.uk/releases/want-to-be-a-better-leader-citipeak-promotions-will-show-you-how-3ee577127ec3cb90418b5d5e27e24fe8/ https://pressat.co.uk/releases/want-to-be-a-better-leader-citipeak-promotions-will-show-you-how-3ee577127ec3cb90418b5d5e27e24fe8/ Monday 1 September, 2014

Managing Director of Citipeak Promotions, Nick Johnson, gives 4 top tips on how to become a better business leader.

A common misconception about business leadership is that it all revolves around the personal qualities of the manager. The truth is that to become a successful manager, the development of the company must be seen as a group effort. Professional growth is no longer just about an individual, rather the company as a whole.

Citipeak Promotions, an outsourced sales and marketing firm based in London, is run by successful business owner and leader, Nick Johnson. The firm was established in early 2010 and has since expanded  its market reach to other major UK cities including Birmingham, Newcastle, Cardiff and Manchester. The firm’s continued success has been attributed to many things; one major factor is the leadership mentality that Nick Johnson has instilled in the firm.

Citipeak Promotions has highlighted 4 key areas that will make any business professional a better leader.

1.Listen

Citipeak Promotions believe that one of the most important traits in leadership is the ability to listen. Time should be taken to sit down with individuals and listen to thoughts, suggestions and concerns. By giving people a voice that is heard, morale will be boosted and this will in turn help long term business growth.

2.Be Approachable

A successful leader will give individuals the opportunity to be heard and will ensure people feel comfortable within the process. By being approachable, Citipeak Promotions believe it will result in stronger team relationships and an overall stronger company.

3.Get to know Individuals

Citipeak Promotions run an open door policy; gone are the days of leaders sitting behind a closed office door. The firm believe that the best leaders get to know everyone on a personal level as well and professionally.

4.Hold yourself Accountable

Even though positive leadership is collaborative, those in charge must be held responsible for performing tasks according to high standards. If leaders arrive to work with a positive, upbeat attitude, work hard and show they care about the business and its aims this will rub off on others within the company.

‘Effective business leadership demands a captain of the ship, not just someone who’s standing by the helm’ explained Nick Johnson, MD of Citipeak Promotions. ‘Leadership is active, not passive. A leader is a person who directs the activities of others for the good of all. Anyone can be a leader, even if the only person they’re leading is themselves’ added Nick Johnson.

London based outsourced sales and event marketing firm, Citipeak Promotions was invited to speak at a Business Development Conference within the sales and marketing industry.

<![CDATA[ Citipeak Promotions Reviews the Impact that the Tour de France has on the UK Economy ]]> https://pressat.co.uk/releases/citipeak-promotions-reviews-the-impact-that-the-tour-de-france-has-on-the-uk-economy-93204b0bb7757a98464c5a74dfb83f7c/ https://pressat.co.uk/releases/citipeak-promotions-reviews-the-impact-that-the-tour-de-france-has-on-the-uk-economy-93204b0bb7757a98464c5a74dfb83f7c/ Wednesday 16 July, 2014

As the 2014 Tour de France passes through the UK, Citipeak Promotions reviews the impact that this 3600km long race of endurance has on the UK economy.

The Tour de France is an annual multiple stage bicycle race primarily held in France. Running from Saturday July 5th to Sunday July 27th 2014, the 101th Tour de France will be made up of 21 stages and will cover a total distance of 3,664km. The first stage of the race began last Saturday 5th July in Leeds, passing a distance of 190.5km through the Yorkshire Dales to Harrogate and on Monday 7th July, the final stage of the UK leg ended in London.

The Tour de France first began in 1903 and is considered the oldest and most prestigious cycling race in the world. The race is traditionally held during the month of July and whilst the route changes each year, the format of the race stays the same with the appearance of at least two time trials, the passage through the mountain chains of the Pyrenees and the Alps and the finish on the Champs-Elysees in Paris. The Tour de France first came to the UK in 1974 but it was so disastrous, the Tour did not return to the UK for another 40 years.

Not only does the presence of the Tour de France bring excitement to the community of the UK, it also brings economic benefits. It has been estimated that the Yorkshire region will benefit in excess of £100m from hosting the first stage last Saturday; as the area saw an influx of visitors for both long term and short term stays. The £100m contribution to the Yorkshire region will represent a boost of 0.1% to the annual economy of the area.

‘With the Tour de France in the UK, many small businesses will benefit economically. This will range from the hospitality industry, but also local shops. Small sports clubs will also benefit from the sporting legacy as more people will want to sign up for memberships, making these clubs more successful’, highlighted Nick Johnson, Managing Director of Event Marketing firm, Citipeak Promotions.

As a small business, Citipeak Promotions appreciates the value that sporting events such as the Tour de France can bring to local economies. Hospitality is not the only benefit from sporting events coming to the UK – local sporting clubs also see an increase in memberships and interests. Citipeak Promotions uses this example to also highlight the importance that small businesses bring to the economy of the UK.

Citipeak Promotions is a small business based in London. The firm specialise in organising and executing event marketing campaigns for the firm’s clients. Managing Director, Nick Johnson has always supported the importance that small businesses, such as Citipeak Promotions bring to local and nation economies. Small businesses invest a significant amount of profits into their local area, supporting local communities and economies and as a contribution to the whole UK’s economy, small businesses add 24.9% of the UK’s total wealth. Citipeak Promotions believe that sporting events such as the Tour de France will only add value to the contribution that small businesses make.

Managing Director of Citipeak Promotions, Nick Johnson organises a round of Golf at the prestigious Royal Liverpool Golf Club for business consultants

On Monday 2nd June, Nick Johnson, Managing Director of Citipeak Promotions hosted a business meeting at the Royal Liverpool Golf Club. The corporate golf day was a networking opportunity for Nick Johnson to consult with fellow successful business owners within the sales and marketing industry; to share his successes of the year so far and to obtain extra knowledge and advice from other business professionals within the same industry.

Royal Liverpool Golf Club was founded in 1869 and it was recently announced that the club is to be the host of the 2014 Open Championship; the 12th time the club has hosted golf’s oldest major. The club is the second oldest seaside Golf links course in England and was redesigned in the early 20th century by one of the world’s leading golf course architects.

Networking opportunities have been and are still, extremely important to the success of Citipeak Promotions. Business networking is a socioeconomic business activity when groups of like minded businesspeople recognise, create and act upon business opportunities.

It has been said that more business is done on the golf course than anywhere else. Citipeak Promotions believe that more work is done outside of a formal meeting. This is because the time spent with each other outside of the meeting leads to important relationship building so that real work can take place. The firm believe that for the majority of people who attend meetings, they never see fellow members from one meeting to the next, and then wonder why no business is generated.

Citipeak Promotions believe that golf is a very efficient networking tool. Firstly, every member has something in common – a love of golf and relationships are much easier to build upon if there is a common starting point. Secondly, networking only works if people attend on a regular basis and even the best networking groups have problems with non-attendance. Reasons for non-attendance generally include a lack of enjoyment or a lack of value added from the meeting. The fact that golfers are able to play golf is a fantastic incentive and motivator to attend the meetings. The business benefits of that are that people will do almost anything to avoid missing a golf networking opportunity which results in continuity of attendance.

Citipeak Promotions is an event marketing firm based in London. Over the past two years, the firm have expanded their market research to other UK cities including Birmingham, Newcastle and most recently Cardiff. The firm consistently create simplistic business partnerships and provide a low cost, efficient and measurable sales and marketing solution for their clients.

<![CDATA[ Citipeak Promotions Ltd Reviews Criticisms of Marketing Industry ]]> https://pressat.co.uk/releases/citipeak-promotions-ltd-reviews-criticisms-of-marketing-industry-26af4e37f8e08508ffe8a6ab7d78330f/ https://pressat.co.uk/releases/citipeak-promotions-ltd-reviews-criticisms-of-marketing-industry-26af4e37f8e08508ffe8a6ab7d78330f/ Tuesday 11 February, 2014
Events marketing company, Citipeak Promotions review the common criticisms of online marketing and promotes direct marketing as an effective marketing strategy for UK companies in 2014.

Marketing is the process of communicating the value of a product or service to customers, for the purpose of selling that product or service. Marketing is an essential part of attracting target customers to a specific product or service, with companies using various innovative or tried and tested techniques to stay ahead of competitors and make a place in the market.

Online marketing is one type of marketing technique that has received criticisms over the past few years. One criticism is the payment method as many users still don’t trust in the electronic methods of paying and give up buying online because of this. Another major disadvantage is the lack of trust of the users because of the constant virtual promotions that appear to be frauds. This is an aspect that deteriorates the image and reputation of quality and honest companies.

Citipeak Promotions is an events marketing company that uses direct marketing techniques to attract a high volume of high quality customers for their clients. Citipeak Promotions are concerned about the negative associations with online marketing and encourage more UK companies to utilise the services provided by outsourced direct marketing companies because of the many benefits gained.

Citipeak Promotions encourage companies to invest in direct marketing campaigns over online marketing because it is measureable, cost effective and gains sales at a faster rate than any other forms of marketing. Direct marketing includes tangible offers – this provides customers with a sense of urgency to respond within a certain period of time, allowing clients to keep better tabs on campaigns and see results faster. Direct marketing strategies also involve presentations that allow a firm to showcase their client’s success and demonstrate the client’s area of expertise.

‘Unlike online marketing, the face to face direct marketing techniques that we use, receive instant feedback on the product or service being marketed by our highly trained advisors’ said Nick Johnson, Managing Director of Citipeak Promotions. ‘We can then invest this feedback straight back into improving the quality of the service we provide for our clients to ensure customer satisfaction, retention rates and loyalty are maintained at a high level without the overuse of customer data’ added Nick Johnson.

Citipeak Promotions prides them self in using a targeted market approach when it comes to their sales and marketing campaigns which avoid the overuse of consumer data. Citipeak Promotions excel at developing the right direct marketing approach which will be the most effective means for delivering a marketing message to a targeted audience.

<![CDATA[ Citipeak Promotions Ltd Announce 3 Trends for Business Loyalty to Watch in 2014 ]]> https://pressat.co.uk/releases/citipeak-promotions-ltd-announce-3-trends-for-business-loyalty-to-watch-in-2014-d8dcbc320c062cf5e924a3a132bb3070/ https://pressat.co.uk/releases/citipeak-promotions-ltd-announce-3-trends-for-business-loyalty-to-watch-in-2014-d8dcbc320c062cf5e924a3a132bb3070/ Monday 9 December, 2013
Customer acquisition firm Citipeak Promotions Ltd announce 3 loyalty trends that businesses should watch as 2014 approaches.

As the Christmas holiday season is upon us, this is the time of year when marketers and retailers are heavily focused on driving all-important profits. With so much attention on the last quarter’s performance, it can be easy to neglect what’s important for customer engagement beyond the holiday season. Brands and marketers must think how to interact with customers in the New Year and look for new ways to keep customers loyal. At Citipeak Promotions Ltd, the firm is already looking to the first quarter of 2014, and how they are going to maintain the high level of customer loyalty the firm brings for their clients.

Citipeak Promotions Ltd is an event based sales and marketing firm that is involved directly with customer acquisitions on behalf of their clients. The firm hold customer loyalty at the forefront of their customer satisfaction strategy. The firm will only build on this customer loyalty as the New Year unfolds since there will be tough competition from other brands looking to poach high quality customers in the New Year. Citipeak Promotions Ltd has specially trained customer acquisition teams who represent their clients brand and build up brand loyalty through their personalised selling strategy.

As this competitive selling season approaches, Citipeak Promotions Ltd announce 3 loyalty trends to watch in 2014 that will help businesses keep hold of their customers for long periods of time; not just for Christmas.

1. Personalisation
Citipeak Promotions Ltd believe that in 2014, marketers should aim to combine data regarding what customer want, with models that help to predict customer behaviour. This will help indicate what products or services a customer will prefer, personalising the buying experience. Earlier this year, Citipeak Promotions Ltd announced a growth of 8%, which was accredited to a newly developed USP and a personalised approach to the marketing strategy. The firm will continue to review and change their personalised approach to marketing in 2014 to maintain customer loyalty for their clients and to stay ahead of rival marketing firms.

2. Analyse customer behaviour
This is related to personalisation. More and more brands are analysing customers’ behaviour to discover what matters most to them and how this has an impact on the business. At Citipeak Promotions Ltd, the firm believe that brands must also establish what the goal is for a particular campaign e.g. long term loyalty, to spend more or to bring friends to join.

‘Marketers must always keep in mind that customer loyalty is not just a promotion, but a long term goal for a business. It happens over a series of promotions and interactions, which is why businesses must have an end goal in sight,’ explained a spokes person for Citipeak Promotions Ltd.

3. Ensure the highest level of customer service is always given
Good customer service is essential for any business that wants loyal customers – a satisfied customer is more likely to return for additional products and services on offer, whereas an unsatisfied customer is more likely to look elsewhere. Citipeak Promotions Ltd has worked hard to ensure their client’s customers receive excellent customer service and this will only continue to improve as the firm enters the New Year. Citipeak Promotions Ltd advises businesses to keep customer service a priority in 2014 since it is crucial for the success of any business.

Citipeak Promotions Ltd encourage businesses to evaluate how they can incorporate these 3 loyalty trends into their business to ensure customer loyalty in 2014.

<![CDATA[ Citipeak Promotions Ltd Argue Advantages of Direct Marketing vs. Traditional Advertising ]]> https://pressat.co.uk/releases/citipeak-promotions-ltd-argue-advantages-of-direct-marketing-vs-traditional-advertising-bec64feaccf7650d6ef09a56185cae27/ https://pressat.co.uk/releases/citipeak-promotions-ltd-argue-advantages-of-direct-marketing-vs-traditional-advertising-bec64feaccf7650d6ef09a56185cae27/ Friday 22 November, 2013
As Royal Mail launches its first major TV campaign in six years, Managing Director of Citipeak Promotions Ltd highlights why direct marketing is more effective that TV advertising and why brands that have taken the direct marketing route are more successful than those that have not.

On Saturday the 2nd November, Royal Mail launched its first major TV advertising campaign in six years. This comes just weeks after the postal service was privatised by the Government and as the service gears up for the busy festive parcel delivery season.

Advertising is a single component of the marketing process. In general, the goal of advertising is to increase brand awareness along with creating an emotional connection to the potential buyer. Whereas direct marketing is designed to get the customer to move towards the completion of a transaction, advertising targets the customer to feel something about a product or service. In direct marketing you want the customer to actually do something regarding the product or service. Because of this, direct marketing is a sales strategy within an overall marketing toolbox and creates the momentum towards the transaction that is necessary to generate more revenue.

Citipeak Promotions Ltd is a London based outsourced sales and marketing company that specialises in events based direct marketing offering dedicated face to face customer acquisition teams. The firm develop and execute unique marketing approaches to help their valued clients acquire quality, long-term customers for their business throughout the UK. Citipeak Promotions Ltd partner with supplies and clients who hold themselves accountable to setting a higher standard within their industry and through the firm’s event based direct marketing campaigns they will guarantee their clients a higher ROI than obtained by advertising.

‘Here at Citipeak Promotions Ltd, we develop effective marketing campaigns behalf of our clients. We value the importance of two way communication between our clients and the consumer because this helps to educate the customer about the product or service that is on offer’ said Nick Johnson, Managing Director of Citipeak Promotions Ltd. At Citipeak Promotions Ltd, the firm believe that the more educated the customer is about the product or service, then the more committed and trusting they will be towards completing a transaction. This education is limited through TV advertising.

Citipeak Promotions Ltd uphold the value, success and importance of direct marketing strategies for their clients as they are a much more effective way for companies to reach customers and to make a profit. According to The Guardian, 86% of people skip TV adverts and direct marketing costs 62% less per lead that traditional advertising.

As customers have changed the way that they shop for products and services, Citipeak Promotions Ltd is responding with event marketing campaigns for their clients that attract and appeal to the modern day consumer.

<![CDATA[ Citipeak Promotions Ltd Encouraged by Study Results Highlighting Small Businesses are Great Examples to Larger Corporations ]]> https://pressat.co.uk/releases/citipeak-promotions-ltd-encouraged-by-study-results-highlighting-small-businesses-are-great-examples-to-larger-corporations-0a6be37bc86ebbcc5763a3ebc3e20df2/ https://pressat.co.uk/releases/citipeak-promotions-ltd-encouraged-by-study-results-highlighting-small-businesses-are-great-examples-to-larger-corporations-0a6be37bc86ebbcc5763a3ebc3e20df2/ Wednesday 6 November, 2013
As a recent study reveals how small businesses can be an example to large ones, Nick Johnson, owner of small business Citipeak Promotions Ltd, highlights the reasons why innovation is essential for the success of any company.

A recent study from the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development, found that the UK’s economic growth could be boosted if large firms adopted the entrepreneurial spirit that drives so much value in start-ups and small firms. The UK’s entrepreneurs have grown sales by an estimated 20% year on year and SMEs (small and medium sized enterprises) contribute 52% of private sector gross value added to the UK economy. Small business owner and Managing Director of Citipeak Promotions Ltd, Nick Johnson, believes that the innovative spirit that drives small business owners could be a huge help to larger companies looking to grow.

The report commissioned by the CIPD is encouraging larger companies to promote the culture of ‘intrapreneurialism’ where big businesses can help their employees adopt entrepreneurial behaviours that foster innovation and growth. The buzzword ‘intrapreneurs’ was coined in the 1980s by management consultant Gifford Pinchot and is often used by organisations that recognised the need for new and innovative ideas. Unlike entrepreneurs, who tend to run their own small start-up organisations, intrapreneurs usually work in larger organisations where they’re tasked with developing new ideas and concepts like an entrepreneur would.

Over recent years, small businesses have become even more important to the UK economy and now the innovation and drive that underpins the growth and success of small businesses is being used to help grow large companies in the UK. Nick Johnson, Managing Director of small business Citipeak Promotions Ltd, considers innovation as one of the main reasons why the firm has had so much success since its establishment in early 2010.

Innovation means using new technology and using new ways of thinking to add value to an existing idea or product and to make substantial changes in society. Small businesses often innovate extremely well because entrepreneurs and small business owners such as Nick Johnson regularly have new ideas to help improve business strategies. Over 90% of businesses think that innovation is a priority for success.

At Citipeak Promotions Ltd, the firm’s innovative strategies, led by Nick Johnson, include:

1.Having a Unique Selling Point (USP)
2.Responding to Competition
3.Continuous Improvement

Citipeak Promotions Ltd is an outsourced sales and marketing company. The firm use their USP in the right way to add value to their client’s products and services. This has given Citipeak Promotions Ltd an advantage over other firms in the saturated sales and marketing industry. As start-up companies grow, it can be easy for the entrepreneurial spirit that made it so successful in the first place to wane; it is this innovation that ensures the continued success of small businesses. Citipeak Promotions Ltd operates within the competitive sales and marketing industry. The firm use innovative ideas to help see future opportunities and in order to stay ahead of the competition. Lastly, innovation gives organisational sustainability when continuous improvements are being made. At Citipeak Promotions Ltd, the firm recognises the need to innovate, which will help to grow the business.

<![CDATA[ Citipeak Promotions Ltd Research Suggests Successful Business Qualities Originate from Sport ]]> https://pressat.co.uk/releases/citipeak-promotions-ltd-research-suggests-successful-business-qualities-originate-from-sport-cb98164e8c47f57b7a00ba092b5dc3cd/ https://pressat.co.uk/releases/citipeak-promotions-ltd-research-suggests-successful-business-qualities-originate-from-sport-cb98164e8c47f57b7a00ba092b5dc3cd/ Thursday 17 October, 2013
Entrepreneur, sportsman and Managing Director of London based firm Citipeak Promotions Ltd, Nick Johnson examines the different qualities found in sports men and women. The firm explain which of these attributes are essential to succeed in the world of business.

Studies have shown that men and women who play sports in their younger years tend to be better leaders and entrepreneurs.

At Citipeak Promotions Ltd; an outsourced event sales and marketing firm based in London Bridge, managing director Nick Johnson, also a keen sportsman, believes that the focussed mentality and competitive nature that you can only get through the participation in sport is a valuable asset in the business world and results in good entrepreneurship qualities.

Developing a strategy is a necessity in sport, bringing all elements together at a precise time can determine winning or losing a game. Citipeak Promotions Ltd outline that a successful business strategy requires similar innovation, planning and time-management. Being successful in sports requires practice, patience and persistence something that is taught through training and participation in sports. These skills are very transferable and Citipeak Promotions Ltd believes a huge asset to their event sales focused business model.
Common attributes that are found in successful sportsmen and women that are also present in top businessmen and women include a competitive nature, leadership skills, and the ability to work under pressure and show perseverance.

Research conducted by Citipeak Promotions Ltd suggests that a competitive nature is one of the most important traits individuals require to be a successful business person or entrepreneur. ‘A competitive nature is part of a person’s mentality’ said Nick Johnson. ‘If you believe that winning is everything then you will do anything it takes to ensure success’. Athletes are most effective at channelling this competitive nature, which is why they often transition into business as their sporting careers wind down.

Leadership skills and the ability to work under pressure are two more qualities found in sportsmen and women that also transfer into business. According to Elite Daily the success of an entrepreneur is 85% dependent on how well they can run their organisation at the maximum level of productivity. Within both sport and business it is up to the leader to motivate others to ensure success. In November of 2012, Citipeak Promotions Ltd conducted a study into the role that leadership plays in 15 small businesses. The firm’s results found that a business with strong leadership attributes can lead to 28% more company revenue.

The world of business can be tough and success does not come without challenges. The same can also be said for sports; individuals must work hard to achieve their goals. ‘Everyday there are challenges that I must face within my business’ said Nick Johnson. ‘I believe that from my sporting background I am able to work well under pressure and take these challenges head on. This will only make my business stronger for the future’ added Nick Johnson of Citipeak Promotions Ltd.

As Citipeak Promotions Ltd announced the expansion of their market research to Newcastle, the firm review their success within the Telecom industry over the last year and reveal how this has resulted in their growth in the saturated direct sales and marketing industry across the UK.

July 2013 is an exciting month for Citipeak Promotions Ltd as the firm announce the expansion of their market research to Newcastle; a thriving business city that encourages enterprise, investment and innovation. Only back in February of this year did Citipeak Promotions Ltd expand their market research to Birmingham and due to the firm’s continued and growing success throughout 2012 and in the first half of 2013 within the Telecoms industry, Citipeak Promotions Ltd are expanding operations to Newcastle next week. “Here at Citipeak Promotions Ltd, we are all very excited for our newest expansion to Newcastle - it only seems like yesterday that we were expanding our research to Birmingham,” said Nick Johnson, Managing Director.

A small business such as Citipeak Promotions Ltd does not grow this much in a year without working hard for success. As the firm look back over the first half of 2013, some key business strategies can be identified which have resulted in a substantial leap forward in terms of the company’s growth and successes within the competitive direct sales and marketing industry.

<![CDATA[ Citipeak Promotions Ltd Advocate that Young People can Help Boost the UK Economy ]]> https://pressat.co.uk/releases/citipeak-promotions-ltd-advocate-that-young-people-can-help-boost-the-uk-economy-82398ee88c1a310ac7d19478bfde8793/ https://pressat.co.uk/releases/citipeak-promotions-ltd-advocate-that-young-people-can-help-boost-the-uk-economy-82398ee88c1a310ac7d19478bfde8793/ Monday 8 July, 2013
As Britain’s youth unemployment grows and the coalition government are squeezing out yet more cuts, Nick Johnson of London-based Citipeak Promotions speaks about how the younger generations are good for the workplace and can help boost the UK economy.

A recent article in the Evening Standard reported that young people in the UK face being out of work for more than two years before they reach the age of 30. ‘Twentysomethings’ in the UK can expect to be out of work for longer than those in Australia, Canada and much of Europe. Last week, George Osborne announced that the coalition is squeezing out another £11.5bn in cuts. This comes at a time when the UK is facing near-record youth unemployment with more than 1 million young people in Britain being categorized as NEETs (Not in Education, Employment or Training).

Citipeak Promotions Ltd is a young and vibrant, leading customer acquisitions firm based in London Bridge. Managing Director of the firm, Nick Johnson believes that shutting the young generation out is economically reckless. ‘Studies suggest that training up young people would go a long way to addressing the problem of falling productivity’ said Nick Johnson. ‘Young people bring freshness to the workplace and are often creative and dynamic individuals with new ideas’ added Nick Johnson. It has been debated why there are so many young people out of work in the UK. Reasons include a lack of work experience, a lack of careers advice, a lack of vocational training and a lack of chances given to young people in the workplace.

As a knock on effect from the lack of chances in the workplace, many young people are choosing the excitement of entrepreneurship and the flexibility of running their own business over working for someone else or having to work on menial tasks at the bottom of the corporate ladder. At Citipeak Promotions Ltd, the firm support this choice. Young Entrepreneur and Managing Director of Citipeak Promotions Ltd, Nick Johnson, started his own sales and marketing company in July 2010 and is now reaping the benefits of being self-employed.

Nick Johnson strongly believes that if more young people chose the entrepreneur route, rather than the standard employment route, not only would the economy benefit, but young people will have a more exciting time at work and more of a passion for their work. ‘The best jobs are not ones that require education and being spoken at but rather ones that that speak to you and allow experience as well as personal growth’ believes Nick Johnson.

Research also suggests that entrepreneurial innovation will lead to a healthier global economy and a more sustainable economy for the future generations. Britain’s society is moving towards more young people working on a self employed basis especially in an economy with high youth unemployment. If more young people chose the entrepreneur route, it will not only boost the UK economy, but will also create opportunities and open doors which may never have seemed possible. And for graduates leaving University, the entrepreneur route seems like a sensible and viable option to make money.

<![CDATA[ Citipeak Promotions Ltd Supports Top UK Business Leaders views that Britain should stay in the European Union ]]> https://pressat.co.uk/releases/citipeak-promotions-ltd-supports-top-uk-business-leaders-views-that-britain-should-stay-in-the-european-union-6f14298d93b2b170ecd82391d0d01169/ https://pressat.co.uk/releases/citipeak-promotions-ltd-supports-top-uk-business-leaders-views-that-britain-should-stay-in-the-european-union-6f14298d93b2b170ecd82391d0d01169/ Monday 3 June, 2013
As the business community express their view that Britain should stay part of the European Union for economic reasons, Nick Johnson, Managing Director of Citipeak Promotions Ltd, stands by top UK business owners in his support for the UK maintaining their EU membership.

In a recent article in The Independent online, top UK businessmen (including the Chairman of BT, Deloitte, Lloyds and Centrica) advocated that Britain’s economic interest would be best served if the country was within the European Union. The business community also call to Prime Minister David Cameron to “strengthen and deepen” the European single market to boost Britain’s economy by £110bn.

Business leader and owner of London Bridge based firm Citipeak Promotions Ltd, Nick Johnson, sustains the growing concerns held in The City that there is a large anti-European feeling that is not being countered by political leaders. The business community believe that on a purely economic basis, exiting the EU would be deeply damaging to Britain since EU membership is currently worth between £31bn and £92bn a year in income gains. “There are many benefits that being part of the EU brings to both UK businesses and the UK economy as a whole” says Nick Johnson, Managing Director of Citipeak Promotions Ltd. “By being a Member State of the European Union, Britain is part of the world’s single largest market. Naturally if we were to leave, the economic impacts would be tremendous” added Nick Johnson. The European Union is an economic zone larger than that of the USA and Japan combined; with a total GDP of about £11 trillion.

There are many economic benefits that being in the EU brings to UK businesses. EU competition rules have kept energy and telecom costs down in Europe. With low prices for energy and telecommunications, businesses can concentrate their spending on areas of the company to help with growth and expansion rather than spending money on utilities. For SME’s (with fewer than 250 employees) the European Investment Bank Group provides funding and start-up loans to support new productive investments. With the EU looking to small businesses, such as Citipeak Promotions Ltd, to help reduce unemployment rates the focus is now on small businesses to get loans so that they can grow and become the new economic face of the European Union.

Another key benefit gained from being part of the EU is that businesses only have to deal with one set of rules that cover all EU Member States. “When faced with all of the facts, the economic benefits of Britain staying part of the EU greatly outweigh the costs” said Nick Johnson. “As a small business owner, the advantages that EU membership brings to the business community are essential for our growth. Without these, businesses such as Citipeak Promotions Ltd may not have the opportunity to expand as quickly” added Nick Johnson, Managing Director of Citipeak Promotions Ltd.

<![CDATA[ Changes in Telecommunications Prompt Citipeak Promotions Ltd to Streamline Reporting Process ]]> https://pressat.co.uk/releases/changes-in-telecommunications-prompt-citipeak-promotions-ltd-to-streamline-reporting-process-9dda8564de2a42f028072e2d076dc588/ https://pressat.co.uk/releases/changes-in-telecommunications-prompt-citipeak-promotions-ltd-to-streamline-reporting-process-9dda8564de2a42f028072e2d076dc588/ Sunday 21 April, 2013
Citipeak Promotions Ltd announces they have upgraded their reporting processes, to capitalise on the faster 4G network due to come out this summer.

10 UK cities are set to have some of the fastest mobile internet services in the world, with speeds of up to 130Mbps. As the telecommunications industry gears up for this change, UK small businesses are excited for the benefits that a faster mobile network will bring to their firms. ‘Communication via smart phones and tablets with a fast internet connection is vital for small businesses’ said Nick Johnson, Managing Director of Citipeak Promotions Ltd. ‘Without a network that can support fast transmission of data, a business is less likely to be successful’ added Nick Johnson.

As Bill Gates said, ‘by the end of 2002, there will be only two kinds of business: those with an Internet presence, and those with no business at all.’ (http://www.entrepreneur.com/article/70660) At Citipeak Promotions Ltd, they do not only believe the internet to be a vital component of a business, but that in the year 2013, double speed 4G will enable even more UK firms to expand and grow at a much faster rate.

In line with the changes in telecommunications, Citipeak Promotions Ltd has upgraded their reporting programmes to improve productivity and to process data faster. The firm’s ability to process data faster will benefit their clients, because information will be processed quicker. Citipeak Promotions Ltd hopes that this streamlining and faster data processing will enable to company to grow even faster over the summer of 2013. ‘We are going to take advantage of this double speed 4G network’ said Nick Johnson. ‘Before the upgrade arrives, we will have already updated our systems to ensure that the more efficient reporting of our data runs on an even faster 4G network. Both the company and our clients will benefit, enabling us to grow and expand’ added Nick Johnson, MD of Citipeak Promotions Ltd.

Society’s obsession with smart phones and tablets used for both business and leisure is what fires this demand for a double speed 4G network. This will have a positive impact of people’s free time as they are able to download data quicker. And Citipeak Promotions Ltd is not the only firm business that will benefit from this change. All small businesses will be able to run more efficiently and effectively off this fast network enabling growth and expansion.

And with increasing numbers of UK small businesses growing, the UK economy will also be improved. ‘Our firm and other’s like ours are excited for the summer of 2013 and the increasing possibilities that this double speed 4G network will bring to the UK and it’s economy’ concluded Nick Johnson, MD of Citipeak Promotions Ltd.
