Fertility Flower
"Intranet Future was asked to help us build social media into our business model. From the word go, I knew that Jonathan was a gem. There was a list of questions that were sent to several social media consultants - each business received the same set of questions. Whereas the majority responded with consultant double-talk, Jonathan got right to work. He answered the questions quickly and substantively and thus got our business. We've never regretted that decision. The first report ordered was on the use of Twitter as a customer service tool. Prior to this, we were general consumers of it - but the report opened our eyes to what's possible. We all read the report and were completely fired up! In addition to lots of information about the medium, he had specific recommendations for us on what we should do/avoid - something that we greatly appreciated. In fact we appreciated his approach so much that we ordered a second report from him on Facebook. In both cases, Intranet Future got in there, checked us out and watched what we were doing. He would come back to me with comments, like...˝it was really good the way you said [such and such]...˝ or ˝...have you looked into this group - there might be some way to collaborate...˝ and ˝It would be better if you got rid of [such and such] and put [such and such] there instead...˝ I've gotton as many emails from him at 11pm as I have at 8am - so, he is certainly dedicated. He was quick to understand our business and what kinds of challenges we were facing. While Jonathan is an absolute pleasure to work with, there's nothing that speaks better than results. If we just focus on Facebook alone, our Fan base has grown from 116 to over 1,000 people within the span of two months as a result of following his advice. And we are now the #1 business in our category on Facebook (and at the time of this writing - 21/06/2010 - we haven't even launched yet). I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Intranet Future to anybody and will be calling on them for follow up work in the near future". Kimberly Račić, Fertility Flower, June 2010

Matthew Birch, The Brown Jug, Cheltenham, August 2010
redRock IT
"I recently attended the "Grow your business with social media" course run by Jonathan. It was very informative and covered all the mechanics and how to make the most of using social media (Twitter/Facebook) which enabled me to start spreading the word about my company. I felt totally at ease with the subject matter and Jonathan spent time in explaining any of my misunderstandings to put me on the right path. I thoroughly recommend this course and others run by Intranet Future." Mark Scarborough, redRockIT, Cheltenham, September 2010

Stroud Businesswomen's Network
"Stroud Businesswomen's Network's theme for 2010 is 'sharpening up our networking to improve our business performance': Jonathan has contributed to this in a major way, and made many of us think beyond our normal confines of marketing, and beyond that to communication and interaction with our customers and suppliers. We really enjoyed and valued his ideas and expertise." Lynda McGill, Stroud Businesswomen's Network, Stroud, October 2010
Tonic Public Relations
"Jonathan provides the Tonic Public Relations team with bespoke social media training, keeping us up-to-date with the very latest developments in this area. He combines a highly personable approach with the very latest technical knowledge and an understanding of marketeers' requirements to provide informed and relevant training sessions. I would not hesitate to recommend him." Sharon Kerby, Managing Director, Tonic Public Relations, November 2010
Strategic Marketing
"I attended your presentation last night (on social video) which I found incredibly educating and inspiring for both my role in event management and for other ventures I have in mind." Ben Cook, Event Manager/Business Development, Strategic Marketing, November 2010
Eco-Communications
"After attending Jonathan's Masterclass, the LinkedIn scales have fallen from my eyes! Like lots of people, I'd set up a profile but then done nothing further with it. By the end of the workshop, I understood the potential of this networking site for fostering business contacts and generating work, and how to manage my profile on a daily basis. Jonathan certainly packed massive amounts of information into the 3 hours, including plenty of handy tips based upon his in-depth knowledge. My advice is to take a pen and plenty of paper - although you receive a weblink to Jonathan's presentation, he gives out lots more information than is included in his notes." Caroline Aistrop, Eco-Communications, April, 2011
