Make Yourself Heard

Win a €15k promotional campaign with 4FM, Unique Media and the Sunday Business Post. Now is not the time to be experimenting with advertising as a small business - the funds involved make the risk/reward ratio too unattractive. I'd argue, in fact, that in a business2business market it rarely makes sense to spend big bucks on advertising. HOWEVER - if someone will pay for it for you, it gives you a tremendous opportunity to build brand awareness. The pr package attached to this prize also offers an opportunity to work with Unique Media (who do all of Synergy Centre's PR work) to develop a national media presence. When all that is required is a 500 word submission, what have you got to lose?!? For more info visit http://www.4fm.ie/competition.asp.

Bags of Potential

Ronan Ganter, who took part in the last Enterprise Launch Programme here at Synergy, has just launched his new business http://www.bagcab.com/. BagCab picks your luggage up from one destination and delivers it to another for a mere five euro, leaving you free to walk, cycle or hitch hike from one destination to the next. Currently operating in Galway/Westport/Clifden area, Ronan has plans to add new routes as the company takes off.
