Here is a selection of quotes from businesses we work with. Should you start to work with us, you will receive the same level of support and creative input into making your venture a success...

"The help and support that I’ve received from Didsbury Life has been a massive help to me over the last year. Helen and Pete stand head and shoulders above other promotional companies I have used, both in terms of the value they add, but also in the interest they show in my business. They are really approachable and always make themselves available to talk through any issues/projects/plans that I may have as well as continually thinking of new ways to help me promote my business.

In addition, as a resident of Didsbury, I find that Didsbury Life is the best source of information in the area.  By supporting the full range of businesses in Didsbury, especially the small independents, they are able to capture the charm of the village as well as keeping me informed with what is going on."

"Didsbury Life has been genuinely helpful in raising awareness about my client felicini didsbury and any of our promotional campaigns, offers or hot off the press news. They are incredibly responsive, and provide many of their own creative ideas for working together. felicini is a business that sees itself as very much a part of the local community, and so appreciates the ethos and sense of community spirit behind Didsbury Life."

Matt Neary, Conker PR

"Thank you to Helen & the Didsbury Life team for your support with the launch of our new menu and the Beer Festival. As per usual your support was invaluable and all went very well."

"Being on Didsbury Life has had a real impact on Spirit Hair & Beauty. Finding I.T. a little bit of a minefield, it has been brilliant having the support of Pete and Helen and the rest of the Didsbury Life team. They are very responsive and act quickly if I want to update my profile or promote a special offer or event.

I have noticed that a number of new clients have come to us as a direct result of Spirit being part of the Didsbury Life community, and I do receive regular enquiries which translate into clients, from the site. I am finding being a part of Didsbury Life is a really effective way of marketing my business."

Thank you very much, especially to Helen who has helped make my business come to life."

"Pete has worked with us on a number of design and marketing projects for different business interests for the last three years, and in that time proven to be a completely dependable source of creative ideas and input. He listens to and interprets our ideas effectively and imaginatively, and is always willing to go out of his way."

Jim Barker

"Already profiling on Didsbury Life, we decided to increase our online presence, so we turned to The Design Clinic, the design side of Didsbury Life. They listened to what we wanted, and made suggestions about what we could do with the budget we had. The most cost effective solution was the design of a home page incorporating links and our logo, which forwarded to our profile on Didsbury Life - an instant website at a fraction of the cost!"

Justin Parkinson
Folk Cafe Bar

"I always enjoy working with the Didsbury Life team. You know that they genuinely wish to see you prosper, and this has helped us establish a great relationship based on mutual trust."

"Over the past five years I’ve benefited hugely from having a business relationship with Pete and the team at didsburylife.com. This has included the initial setting up of a presence for my company on the Internet, which has allowed me to reach customers and make contacts to otherwise inaccessible areas of my market right through to the invaluable benefit of everyday IT support and impartial expertise, which I find immensely useful on a regular basis. I continually recommend this website to local businesses and residents and always get positive feedback."

Ben Nixon
Didsbury Window Cleaning Services

"When I was first approached about promoting and profiling my business on Didsbury Life I was fairly sceptical because I am always being asked to “advertise”. However, when I met with Owen, I was impressed by what he had to say and decided to give it a go. Since then, I've had no regrets.

I've found the team to be really friendly and approachable - nothing ever seems to be a hassle for them and they made my profiling on Didsbury Life really easy. I speak frequently to Helen - if I need my profile to be updated, all I need to do is give her a call, and it's done. I'm also kept updated with what's going at Didsbury Life and how I can improve my profile. Because I always ask new clients where they've heard of Didsbury Beauty Clinic, I know for a fact that having a presence on Didsbury Life has generated new clients for me.

From my initial scepticism, I'm glad to say that I joined the Didsbury Life community!"

"Dealing with Pete and the Didsbury Life team is no ordinary business encounter. Behind the services provided is a sense that Pete and his colleagues are driven by great values, and that they are truly interested in their local community thriving, socially, culturally and economically. The networking possibilities are exciting. I've enjoyed meeting all the people I've come across through the site, including the journalists and the Didsbury 'local heroes' who are all up to something grand, and I am delighted when I can contribute to their endeavours. I now regularly recommend to others to make sure that Didsbury Life is contacted to energise any creative or business project."

Lawrence Yusupoff
Clinical Psychologist

"I have worked with Life Websites on a number of projects, more recently the building and hosting of the company’s various web sites. The insight and experience they bring to a business such as ours venturing into the world of web is invaluable. I can honestly say that through their endeavours and commitment the pit falls have been few, and those blips, that do occur when dealing with any technology, have been sorted out quickly and efficiently. It is important for us to be talking to the principals of the company and Pete and Helen are always only a ‘phone call away."

Barry Lavin
Barkers Bespoke

"Being a part of Didsbury Life has meant that I have another way to promote Novus Contemporary Art. Although I have my own website, my profile on Didsbury Life potentially opens up my gallery to a wider audience. Visitors to Didsbury Life use it for a variety of reasons and so someone looking for a restaurant or a cinema listing can discover Novus Art Gallery & you never know - I may find a customer for life! Helen & the team are always keen to discuss ways that I can promote Novus and are pro-active in encouraging me to update my profile and keep it timely and relevant. They will also take the time to sit down with me and really look at ways that I can use the site more effectively.

I think that a site such as Didsbury Life can only be good for the promotion of Didsbury, especially as the team are very passionate about supporting and encouraging independent business in the area."

Mark Fenely
Novus Contemporary Art

"In all my dealings with Didsbury Life they have always conducted themselves with candour and real diligence to ensure a job well done. Pete and Helen are keen to go out of their way to turn things round for you quickly, and no job seems to be too much trouble."

"Pete has been continually willing to go out of his way to help me grow my business. Never short of great ideas and referrals, Pete's ongoing support and advice is a constant reassurance. If I'm not feeling at my peak and lacking focus, a business coaching session with Pete and his positive energy always provides a genuine boost."
