Good morning <07 Name>

Business in Berkshire was originally set up to help small businesses across Berkshire to connect. Over the years we have helped hundreds of organisations to promote ad hoc and regular events. In the early days we were talking about the advantages of being part of a social network and the value of this to a company's search engine stickiness, 4 years on and this message is being reinforced from many angles, marvellous!

We have had many conversations and meetings with people in recent years to discuss the business advantage we can provide them. A number of these have been multiple meetings covering similar ground and we have come up with a great way for those not tuned into Internet Marketing to gain an insight in real time. By applying for one of our FREE Business websites you will be provided with a single page on BinB. This is a great starting point which can be used, over the coming months, to help us illustrate to you the business advantage of upgrading the membership. SILVER SEO membership allows you to add your news and events on a regular basis, increasing your chances of being found by people looking for what you have to offer on t'Internet! Not to mention having your news and events freely promoted in our regular newsletters to an opt-in audience of business people from across the county.

Next week we have our 2nd Meeting of the Minds event, you're invited to join us on Monday 31st from 10am - 1pm at the Saxons Barn, Windsor. This event has a financial leaning, with the credit crunch looming you might want to talk to someone who understands financial matters... then again, you might simply want to join us for a spot of networking.

Hanif will be shooting one minute videos for those who are interested. Only £99 + Vat gets you 30 minutes to nail some footage for you to use in presentations, on your website and which can be hosted on You Tube and available for the world to see.

In April, our 3rd Meeting of the Mind event will focus in on Internet Marketing... more details coming soon to a PC near you!

We've had a great week. A number of new Silver Members joined our ranks as well as 18 FREE Bs who signed up before the weekend. A further 10 spotted our FREE Business Website opportunity over the weekend and if you sign up today we'll give your BinB space a link, for at least a week, on our homepage and in our newsletter, giving you exposure to thousands of business eyes!

Take a look at who has joined in this week:

Pellfold Parthos Ltd, Combe Products, Heat Plant Services, Thatcham & Newbury Maintenance Services, Bob Goertz' Radio Stuff, Fuze Design, Speeding Bullet Logistics, The Ibex Inn, Buddies4travel.co.uk, Callsure Business Telephone, Fax and Switchboard Numbers, Positive Wellbeing, Wilson Pictures, studentgems.com, MarlowFM, Options Independnent Mortgage Advisers, MJO Communications, Goringe & Co. Ltd., John Cassidy Photography, Abbotsbrook Limited

Cooper Lease

The compact dimensions and standard reversing sensors make for easy parking even in the tightest of spaces, while the responsive handling and impressive supercharged pace mean it's perfect for slicing through busy city traffic. Now add the wind-in-the-hair fun factor plus seating for four - that's the Mini Cooper S Convertible.

When it comes to alfresco motoring, the Mini Cooper S Convertible is a winner. Unlike convertibles with folding metal roofs, the Cooper S features a traditional fabric roof which has the advantage of being compactness: there's still room for four seats, plus there's a clever 'sunroof' function if you don't want the top all the way down.
