- Hi Simon,
The attachment(?) to this message may be very interesting as in October our Group had an event with a focus on labelling and Enviro Choice was among those mentioned. If you are interested I can put you on the mail list for other flyers e.g the one I sent out today and also for my fortnightly newsletter - I could send you one and you could decide if its 'for you'.
Cheers
Ray

- About Me:
- A keen greenie since my youth, though not always perfect i do admit! I dream of running an eco-lodge and orchard but that's a little way off, maybe for my semi-retirement :) For now I'm driving a young business providing public relations (PR) and e-marketing services to tourism, events, and wine and food businesses.
- Areas of interest and expertise
- Experienced in promotion and marketing of Tourism, Wine & food and events. All industries where the environment is a major factor and increasing area for marketing leverage. We market clients via public relations, with strengths/connections in the domestic and Australian markets. Our small team has worked with local media for many years and our relationships with media in our niche areas continue prove one of our most valuable assets.
I am also interested and learning about e-marketing, specifically website optimisation and search engine marketing. so that's not the pretty pictures, but the bits and pieces that make it a successful website.
Personally I like sailing, fishing and surfing in this fine country of ours. See you on the waves if not before.
