Grow your own

Constantly developing and growing your product offer is crucial to sustaining competitive advantage, argues Michael Sluming.

As anyone with an internet connection will know, news websites are increasingly offering video content as an added feature to written stories.

In recognition of this at Paver Smith we are now offering clients the opportunity to film their press releases for us to send to TV programmes and news websites. We call it PRTV.

For about half a day's work we can supply a fully edited, broadcast-quality video which will attract a whole new audience to your news.

Broadening your product offering is something all successful businesses must do and this is the case with one of my clients, the Grosvenor Pulford Hotel & Spa.

The privately-owned, four star hotel is home to the £1.5 million Karma Spa, which has already caught the attention of journalists at OK Magazine and Marie Claire.

The Karma Spa is currently developing its own range of signature products and treatments using the expertise and industry knowledge of spa manager, Amy Nelson.

Not only does this set the spa apart from competitors, it also means they are fulfilling a role once occupied by third parties and reaping the rewards financially.


Perhaps, in times of economic turmoil, it is more important than ever for businesses to be thinking strategically and exploiting their in-house capabilities.
