Market Competition and Expansion:
In a prominent retail position and having been established in the area for a number of years, this business currently invests little in advertising or marketing. It has a strong brand, benefits from high levels of awareness and strong footfall generated by its previous marketing efforts which has included local press advertising. Aside from a small entry in the local Yellow Pages and its listing with yell.com, the business has a very well designed, informative and easy to navigate website which performs very well in all the major search engines for all appropriate search topics.
