Introduction


Welcome to another newsletter from PSS-Europe.

A busy month, new customers bringing new requirements primarily as a result of more work being done on new business development. A basic CRM system combined with applying a little self discipline to keep it up to date is starting to show results.

Proving that the PSS-Europe method works the new customer requirement was filled with only 3 CVs being submitted.

Luke and I are exploring new ways of sourcing candidates and particularly through the social media sites. Initial impression is that Linkedin is going to be the leader in this area going forward. Luke has had success sourcing candidates as PSS-Europe is finding an supplying candidates where others have failed before.

The Provek offers is still running with 25% off "in house" course delivery and 15% off "open to public" courses prices between July 26th to September 3rd inclusive!
Further information please contact Erica Gassor on 01635 524610 or e-mail Erica.gassor@provek.co.uk and quote PSS-Europe.
