Those companies that not only have an online presence but continually 'tweek it' and monitor their own company name being mentioned will be best placed to deal with the ever changing consumer market place - whether that's double glazing or photo gifts.

Just look at Harnser Solutions for example, the company I used to work for - an absolutely fantastic bit of kit but no market. People won't change unless they're forced to, unfortunately. Sounds like the event went well. Keep up the good work! Ryan. Hi RCG,

I completely agree with your comments, especially: “Even if somebody came up with a new whiz bang product, a totally new paradigm (you know like plastic windows 40 years ago) in today’s market conditions would it be possible to achieve the rapid growth of those early days?”
