St Mellion
International Hotel, Golf & Country Club is
probably the premier golfing venue in Cornwall. With two
excellent and challenging courses, a superb health &
fitness suite and quality accommodation, it's a great
place for a short break or holiday. The new
Business Development Manager, Regan Bailey, is very
active within the local business community. Already
she's organised the recent Business needs & Support
Exhibition and it'll be even bigger next year. A
£100 million plan has been approved by the Caradon
District Council. The redevelopment will include 265 new
luxury golf homes and a brand new 80-bed hotel to
replace the existing one.
The £100 million spent by
the St Mellion owners is likely to attract top golf
events such as the English Open for years to come.
For more information on the
facilities and various membership packages available at
St Mellion, call them on 01579-351351 or visit

St Mellion business exhibition
 There was a very successful business
exhibition held at St Mellion Hotel, Golf & Country
Club recently. Nearly 90 companies exhibited, including
us.
Apart from getting some good leads it gave us
chance to meet potential business partners - people who
specialised in other areas of Internet promotion and
marketing.
The show will be held over two days
next year so if you're interested, contact Regan Bailey
at St Mellion. For details of this year's show see www.stmellionbusinessshow.co.uk |

Spam - a couple of tips
Spam is a growing problem. With thanks
to the FSB for a recent
magazine article, here are a couple of
tips:
Don't open what you believe to be a SPAM
e-mail. Either delete it immediately or, if you're
unsure about it, in the list of e-mails right click on
it and select Options or Properties from the drop-down
menu (in Outlook anyway). You might be able to determine
a recognisable sender's address in the header. If not,
delete it.
If you can, create an e-mail address
that you use soley for on-line transactions and sign-ups
to sites and clubs etc. If you start getting SPAM
through this address you can simply delete it and create
a new one. If you don't have this capability, consider
investing in a personal e-mail address (and web/domain
address). They are available at very little cost (and we do them
too.....) |

Is your web address
memorable?
Sometimes you only get a
glimpse of a name or phone number that you want to
remember or record. For a potential client that could
mean the difference between them contacting you and not.
If they can't remember your contact details they can't
get hold of you.
For TV, radio and mobile
advertising (on buses, vans etc) it's been shown that a
memorable web address works better than a phone number
or an ordinary web address. Which would you be more
likely to remember - trecastleandson.co.uk or
cornishbuilders.co.uk?
It can cost as little as
£10 a year (from us) for a
memorable .co.uk web address that can point to your web
site in addition to your original web address.
