About Room Ninety Two
"In 2008, Lynn Taylor's business plan was rejected on three occasions. Not for a business bank loan, but a simple business bank account. With zero funds, debt and a poor credit history, the odds were stacked against her beauty treatment business ever getting off the ground. Where others may have given up, Taylor ploughed ahead, sourcing equipment from high street suppliers on expensive high interest credit and continuing to work part-time while setting-up from her Whitstable home. Three years on she's now banking with NatWest, her debts are paid off, she has two employees and revenues of £50,000. Offering high-end beauty treatments for clients often too busy to visit salons or spas within traditional opening hours, Taylor has built an impressive and loyal client list and is permanently booked up four weeks in advance. She insists the secret of her success is being completely client-focused, even dropping her party plans to accommodate GMTV's Kate Garraway on New Year's Day!"

B2B Email Marketing Myth

Image via Wikipedia It's ok to send unsolicited B2B email marketing campaigns in the UK. I have read conflicting information about whether it is acceptable to send unsolicited emails to businesses in the UK.  According to the I nformation Commissioner's Office , "Corporate subscribers - The rules on email do not apply to emails sent to organisations except that you must still identify yourself and provide an address." This information is readily available in their  Data Protection Good Practice Note Electronic mail marketing I also contacted Business Link regarding this matter, and the person I spoke with confirmed that it is acceptable to send unsolicited emails to businesses in the UK.
