ActSmart Doubles In Size
Posted on 15 Feb 2010
ActSmart subscribers will exceed 1500 by Easter 2010 with continued growth coming via the partnership with ACT, new market development and increased involvement of supply partners in specialist retail sectors.
The expansion of ActSmart's activities in the cycle sector, in particular the launch of the new Cycle Finance offering in partnership with Moneyway and the extension of the Cytech programme have seen a recent surge in membership.
As our retail initiatives come to fruition we are seeing an increasing number of suppliers subscribing to ActSmart, throwing their weight behind the initiatives that we are bringing to the supply chain, whilst benefiting directly from our commercial, promotional and information resources.
Preferential card processing rates remains one of ActSmart's leading services and one of the majority that can benefit retailers and suppliers alike.
ActSmart's free recruitment advertising is a major benefit to any subscriber and served the business well recently in finding two new management recruits to help take ActSmart to the next stage of development.
Jonathan Harrison (Marketing and Communications) and Tony Jones (Business Development) have joined ActSmart in management roles and are looking forward to meeting current and potential subscribers at forthcoming trade events.
Mark Brown has left ActSmart after over 6 years sterling service to progress his career in business development. Dave Wilsher of ACT stated that "Mark's involvement following the retirement of Anne Killick has taken ACT into the 21st Century, becoming a leading organisation of its type, something for which I am personally very grateful".
One of the key focuses for ActSmart in 2010 and beyond is further extension of business support initiatives. An online survey will shortly be launching specifically to identify what the priority requirements of all of our subscribers are with regard to business development and support.
