"David conducted a review of the very complex Smart Green Business environmental program for the Heart of London BID area. The program has many facets and a range of programs to be delivered and David used his experience and business knowledge to identify key projects.
A significant amount of information had to be read and absorbed to gain an understanding of the options available. David worked closely with our Operations Manager to develop a report and recommendations for a direction forward. The report provided us with a sound list of actions to consider."

Successful streets don't happen by chance (5 mins):
I will return to Adelaide in January to continue working with retailers and Councils to improve the business environment and retail marketing strategies.
Visited many retail streets and centres in NY including Macys, Bloomingdales, Century 21, Madison Ave and 5th Ave. My favourite store was Eataly in the Flatiron District – an excellent concept.
