Bio
Fraser Anderson
I know Sam through the York Science Park where we are both residents. Last year we started discussing options for a new Lead Generation Campaign. We decided to use TailorMade Media for generating regular leads for our new graduate recruitment software. Previously we had been using Google AdWords and while this had delivered some leads we felt that the flow of enquiries was sporadic and the lead quality inconsistent. We really enjoyed working with the team at TailorMade who supported us in building a bespoke campaign targeted at key decision makers within a defined national target market. Having run similar campaigns in the past our major concern was lead quality. As things turned out we had little to be concerned about; the quality of the leads generated was excellent and many have subsequently been progressed into paying customers. What we liked about the TailorMade approach was the business model and the deliverables; in effect we paid a fixed price for an agreed volume of quality leads and that’s what we got. I would have no hesitation in recommending Sam and her team for this type of work, if you need and more information just message me.

Sam took charge of social media and PR for the London Deli Company. I have been very pleased with the results. With her assistance I have been shortlisted for two Great British Entrepreneur Awards and a York Press BUsiness Award, gained positive press coverage and furthered awareness of the London Deli brand. I would not hesitate in recommending Sam to help you take your business to the next level!

Enterprise Champion
-
Jan 2009 - Apr 2011
The main purpose of this role was to stimulate interest in entrepreneurship and the support available for entrepreneurs with a view to encouraging the establishment of successful new start up businesses in the Yorkshire and Humber Region. As an Enterprise Champion and member of the Ideas Development team, I was responsible for both developing and delivering the content of the Business Ideas Workshop as well as titles from the new Diversity programme (which are aimed at specific and sometimes hard to engage groups). This was in addition to ad hoc presentations on other business related topics, with marketing as a specialism, to various organisations ranging from schools to universities, prisons to charity groups and more. Although the remit consists mainly of presenting, I have also provided business advice on a one to one basis at events such as the regional Enterprise Shows and Rural Roadshows as well as other events that we supported from Beat the Recession to Venturefest and many more. Creating and sustaining relationships through networks inclusive of Government Agencies, Community Groups, CABs, Local Authorities, Trade Associations and sector groups to raise the profile of business support was also crucial to the role. This was is in addition to working with other departments internally, such as Marketing, PR, Events and adviser teams, on projects and opportunities for joint working. I coordinated and led on the delivery of an Enterprise Programme on behalf of the MoD in Catterick for Service Leavers who were exploring the option of self employment. I feel as though this demonstrated my excellent project management skills and ability to liaise with senior stakeholders. Show less

Jan 2008 - Dec 2008
I was responsible for marketing the offices, virtual reception service and conference facilities in an RDA funded Creative Industries Centre, which consequently played an instrumental role in the town of Scarborough winning the title of most Enterprising place in Europe. At Woodend, I worked with external providers to coordinate an events schedule which consisted of workshops that provided business support and promoted these regionally to SMEs. Regular market research was conducted with the tenants of the centre as part of various research projects to ascertain what supported they required whilst establishing how satisfaction could be improved. I also encouraged the creation of a community with joint working initiatives amongst the businesses - which were inclusive of graphic and web designers, photographers, architects, IT companies and prestigious organisations such as the Scarborough Museums Trust and the BBC. It was at Woodend that I first developed my passion for working with creative businesses. Show less

Sales and Marketing Executive *Temporary*
-
Jun 2007 - Dec 2007
Based in Marbella, this position included weekly travel to various locations in the UK and Ireland where clients were met and advised on a vast array of investment opportunities in overseas property markets. As a France specialist, I conducted research and was responsible for training sales teams in the regional products of both the Languedoc and Cote D'Azur although it was important to have good knowledge of as many of the other 19 countries in which the company operated. Due to the nature of the fast moving markets with varying capital growth rates and tax liabilities, increasing investment opportunities and ever changing finance options, this proved to be a very demanding role which required a constant, hands-on approach in a bid to ensure that the company and its' employees were delivering up to date and accurate information to their clients.
