Delighted to achieve runner up Business Person of the Year 2018

Chris Dowling Business Mentor achieves Runner Up in this years’ Uckfield Business Awards

I was delighted to be amongst the finalists at last Thursday’s Uckfield Business Awards gala evening.

Chris Dowling, Uckfield Business Award finalist

The bi-annual event was held at the East Sussex National Hotel, Uckfield with over 300 guests attending.

There were 15 different categories,  covering a wide range of business sizes, types and people. I was pleased to be one of the three finalists in the ‘Business Person of the Year- Male’ category. It was great to be nominated back in the summer and then to be short-listed a few weeks ago as a finalist for the award.

The recognition for me,  my business and the business mentoring and support services I offer was great – quite literally in the spotlight in front of local businesses.

Unfortunately, although I didn’t win – that honour went to Kevin Markwick, owner of Uckfield’s well known and independent cinema, The Picture House – I am very pleased to be a runner-up and to receive a certificate.

It was an enjoyable evening and a great advert, showcasing Uckfield businesses and their diversity and success stories.

Thanks to the organisers for a glittering and enjoyable evening: Uckfield Chamber of Commerce, Uckfield FM and The Marketing Eye.

Thank you for all your help and support so far, it’s difficult to express how much I valued our sessions and I am sure I will be in touch again in the future. Please don’t hesitate to let me know if there is anything I can do for you in return.

I have been working with Chris for some four or so months now. He has helped me refocus my objectives and concentrate on specific tasks to get things moving in the right direction. Chris brings his experience, he speaks with authority but is not intimidating. I am looking forward to continuing my work with Chris. I certainly (and have) recommended him.

If you are thinking about taking on a business mentor, I would have no hesitation in recommending Chris to you. Not only is he an extremely experienced businessman, Chris has a very personable and caring style.
