"I have known Ms Hollie Whittles for over ten years in both her business capacity and as part of the music community in Shrewsbury.
Most recently, at my recommendation to the Development Group at St Chad’s Church Shrewsbury, she acted as our information technology consultant. Her brief was to create a package of developments that would enhance the experience of visitors coming to see the unique architectural and decorative features of the church. On average each year, St Chad’s Church attracts several thousands of visitors from across the world. The improvements identified by Hollie and then put into action provided a significantly improved and integrated audio visual facility designed to co-ordinate with the existing website and guided tour of the church.
As a group we were impressed by Hollie’s capacity to assess the brief and to provide ideas and costings for both the hardware and the programmes that would be feasible within the context of the church and its outreach. Proposals were provided on time and enabled profitable discussion and scrutiny to take place. Her significant knowledge and expertise that she provides through her company FraggleWorks ensures that a high level of customer satisfaction is gained.
I am happy to recommend Ms Whittles without reservation should she and her company be invited to contribute projects for which she is eminently well qualified."

"Hollie is a enthuasitic and natural presenter who is obviously a master at all things related to the Social Media presence for businesses. Her presentation at a recent Shropshire Chamber Expo was very informative and thought provoking. Whilst Budding Delights is still in it’s infancy, Hollie has spurred us on to focus on our evolving Internet marketing actions. We look forward to hearing her speak again on the ever-changing marketplace of the Internet."

I can't recommend Hollie's Marketing Strategy workshop highly enough! Hollie made the session accessible, informative and engaging. It had a good blend of information about traditional marketing principles and strategies and web-based marketing strategies.
The feedback from the participants all small business owners was incredibly positive and I'm looking forward to booking Hollie again for some other business sessions for Qube in the autumn.

Hollie runs a regular range of diverse workshops and seminars in social media, marketing and business consultancy here at the Marches Growth Hub Telford, where she engages brilliantly with established businesses, start-ups and pre-starts.
Hollie has a professional, amiable and accessible delivery style. Session content is full of pertinent, useful information and obviously her high level of knowledge is based on the experiences of a business owner, very much welcomed by our audience.
Hollie creates a welcoming and sharing environment which results in interactive, interesting sessions where people feel happy to contribute and ask questions.
We are keen to continue to develop our working relationship with Hollie and highly recommend her services.

We attended Hollie’s session "Everybody's Doing Social Media—Get Your Strategy Sorted!" at the Marches Growth Hub on 29th August.
This was by far the most helpful “Social Media” presentation we have attended and we were inspired to arrange a meeting with Hollie at her office where she provided excellent “on the spot” practical advice and immediate assistance in relation to social media and our forthcoming website.
