A record month
It’s great when a plan comes together. This month has been momentous for us in a number of ways. We have received more enquiries, more bookings and more website traffic than ever before in the¬†three and a half years we have been in business.
We featured in a wonderful article in Sainsbury’s magazine, on our wildlife holidays on Mull, which has provoked a great deal on interest. (We have also been mentioned in both the Guardian and Sunday Times recently.) This coincided very nicely with the launch of our newly revamped website. Add that to our other marketing activities and the results are clear to see.
We are also delighted to welcome a new member of the team on board - Julie Morris. Julie, who has plenty of experience in the fields of tourism, design and marketing, has already settled in well, but does need to be more careful in the number of chocolate biscuits she is bringing in for the office to share. Now we are on the first rather than fourth floor, running up the stairs is not an available exercise option to work them off!
Later next month we are planning to revisit Orkney - where Heather and I have enjoyed some memorable holidays in the past. We will be looking at a number of hotel possibilities and  hope to be able to offer a full programme of exciting holiday options there from April onwards.
We are also working on a couple of other major initiatives to introduce new services by early Summer - exciting times ahead, I hope.
