We deliver presentations to public sector and social enterprise groups, Chambers of Commerce, local enterprise agencies, membership organisations and the like. They offer businesses, social enterprises and business start-ups the opportunity to make informed decisions as to whether they could drive export sales thereby creating and/or retaining jobs by trading on eBay. All of our presentation packages include helping with recruitment and publicity by preparing press releases and doing radio interviews where arranged by the host organisation, issuing broadcast emails to interested parties, remaining behind for questions after the formal presentation (normally 2 to 3 hours though sometimes longer) and providing telephone and email follow up support for all attendees, as well as delivering the main 3 hour live illustrated presentation. The presentation is usually hosted in a hotel function room and has been delivered to audiences of up to 400 people though an average audience in Northern Ireland would be 40 to 60 people.
