about

I love the coast and in particular, the area in which I live, the North East of England. It’s an uncomplicated life, for the past twelve years I’ve been away from the ‘big smoke’ … and the decision to relocate my business to the North has been the best move of my career. So far. I am a writer and have a lifetime of experience in publishing and personal development. I now consider myself a specialist in helping my clients with memoirs – this could be a biography, or simply bringing diary pages to life. I tend not to advertise my business, word of mouth has always been kind so it’s no surprise that I do spend a couple of days per week in collaboration through networking. Peer collaboration can be very rewarding. Therefore, if you’d like to join me fortnightly for Wednesday ZOOM or either Tuesday or Thursday for (in-person) morning coffee, please get in touch. I’d love to meet you and perhaps help in any way possible. Thank you for stopping by the website. engage, develop, grow … with Go! charliekenny@live.co.uk

    I remember you!

    Networking works, yet for some, it simply does not. Reputations, integrity through your business community greatly influences your opportunity for success, so there is a little work to do once we decide we’re going to give this networking thing a go … most of us wish to be seen in the best light. I wonder if…

    Make it special …

    I really don’t know how to pitch the room today, Charlie.  Do as you usually do Tom, and continue the education and enlightenment. Should I tell them about the new business I’m thinking about, after all the presentation is only a couple of minutes and I’ve plenty of the regular business just now, should I…

    You, want to help me?

    Yes Ian, I know someone who can help you with that … My friend had expressed a need for a specific kind of business support. With my offer being anything but extraordinary, I was somewhat taken aback with the reply: You do? But, why would you want to help me? I quickly explained that helping…

    Do better, follow up

    Here’s the story, see if you relate to this … It’s early in the day, the meeting is over and ‘sticky buns’ are present when I ask: So, how is business? Business is great Charlie and I love these networking events, there is always plenty of opportunities. I think I’ve identified one or two potential…

    dude, bust those moves

    “It’s funny, I never imagined that I’d enjoy meeting so many new people, so when I found out that there were those in the room, similar to myself it soon put me at ease. It was great there are those willing to reach out and engage, offering to help my business, I have to say…

    Eat that cake!

    more business is lost through indecision than by making the wrong decision.

  • WLTM … ROFL

    WLTM … ROFL

    Hear that? I’d been summoned, that familiar contraption by my side hails me. ‘Pinged’ again. I’d just been ‘messaged,’ ‘alerted,’ ‘distracted,’ with an enquiry through social media. The diversion had come from Murray, he was wanting to know a little more of what ‘it’ was all about. How he might share in this referral network…

  • Hey, Mr Referrable!

    Hey, Mr Referrable!

    if you’re not reliable, you are simply not referable

    It’s on the nose!

    think of others, be accountable

  • Reputable, reliable = referrable

    Reputable, reliable = referrable

    Is he reliable Charlie? Ben asks. Do you know our new connection well enough to refer him?? Fair questions. I thought for a single moment and realised that this time, I just wasn’t sure of my answer… All in business have had times of dilemma, finding the reliable trading partners, co-workers and suppliers are part of…
