Martin and Co online agent donates an hour!
The 'Give an Hourand' campaign is an initiative to get more and more people started up online and using the internet. They may be missing out on the huge benefits the internet can bring.
By individuals giving an hour it can really help others get over the scary jargon and technology attached to online. That's exactly what John Raffel the "online agent" for Martin and Co Stowmarket has done. The focus of the letting agents business is predominately online, so who better to help.
It made perfect sense for John to "Give an Hour" to help others online. John signed up to help a local pre-school in Elmswell, Little Elms. John had continued to be been involved with the pre-school since his two children attended. During John's involvement he has been leading a team of fundraisers who successfully raised £280,000 for a new purpose built building to replace a porta -cabin. John has also been involved in training the Play Leader to take over the payroll. For the pledge for the current BBC campaign John was tasked with sorting out the pre-schools online presence.
The pre-school currently had two or three websites used over the years. When joining Martin and Co, the UK's number one letting agent as a new franchisee John received expert industry training. Part of the training encompassed a detailed approach to online marketing. John is well placed to donate an hour and help train the pre-school to consolidate the websites and keep the information up to date and relevant to increase their online presence.
