"I just wanted to pass on my appreciation for an excellent conference yesterday. The quality of the day was very special in many aspects. Consulting can be a difficult place to be and as such people need nurturing. This I thought was done particularly well from the personal greetings to the warm atmosphere, and worthwhile and relevant presentations. Well done and thank you ." ", Roger Hurley, Metanous Limited

" I am impressed ( and not easily) with the web site in terms of its functionality and appropriateness. It is unusual to find a site that delivers just what I need as a consultant without wasting my time. As a result of joining Skillfair my workload has almost quadrupled and I am looking forward to using more of the services outlined in your welcome call", Jill Maidment, Natural Talent

One thing I am very impressed with is your offer alert; I posted an offer for a free download of my book on marketing and selling seminars and within 2 days 60 had been dowloaded. Adding that to the excellent alert service makes Skillfair incredible value for money, Andrew Ludlam, Maverick Marketing Consultancy

" When I joined Skillfair I was somewhat sceptical as other networks have yielded nothing, so I didn't expect results so soon and although this is a bizarre way of finding clients (through the direct projects) it works! ", James Miller, Miller and Partners
5/8/2008 
" Placing a project on Skillfair worked brilliantly for me, it narrowed the field down in terms of getting the correctly matched consultants applying for the post and the quality of the respondents was very good. We managed to interview and make a selection quickly and have engaged one of these consultants to work on our ongoing project taking the pressure off us enormously.", Clive Green, Active Learning & Development

"Skillfair is extemely useful and I have found it very helpful. I decided to go from being a guest to a member and then I saw the e-mail offering IBC members a discount so it would seem membership was in my destiny! I have identified two tenders to bid for and I am working on the PQQ's right now. I had considered many other tender search sites but none are as thorough as Skillfair, I am very pleased indeed", Malcolm Timms, Business Renaissance, IBC Member

I am confident that with the company changes in place and the referrals we get that we will crack the tender market this year", Jamie Roberts,1 Tech

"I have just received the “consultants who have joined or renewed with Skillfair and whose skills match your requirements”. Brilliant! Just like the photos of yourselves you sent earlier this week, the details of co-consultants makes it all real, and that encourages our loyalty. Everything I think of, you’ve either done it already or are about to – and everything you do is thoroughly thought through, too. Keep up the excellent work!!" , Stuart McCallum, The Fast Forward Group

"Thanks for alerting consultants on your network to our recent tender opportunity for "General curriculum training". We had a very high level of interest and have received about 12 tenders all of a high standard. I'm sure the number of tenders received would have been lower if you hadn't circulated details of the project. ", Karen Wontner, Purchasing Manager, Cardiff University
14/3/2008
