Rob spoke to 20 students in a Global Business course at Rivier University. He was terrific! The students loved meeting him, learning from his expertise, and engaging his global view. They walked away with a very clear understanding of how global marketing works and where it is likely headed in the future. More...

Met Rob for a (free) one hour digital marketing session through Gloucester Growth hub. In such a short time he asked all the right questions to understand the business, gave insightful and valuable help about several aspects of branding and marketing our small company and helped prepare for an important meeting with a giant pharmaceutical company. Very impressive in a one hour meeting. More...

I met with Rob yesterday for a one hour session on digital marketing. It was a one on one which I found incredibly useful. Rob quickly gained an understanding of the objectives of the business and focused in on exactly the right areas.I took away an appreciation of how important blogging will be as part of our marketing strategy and Rob has recommended several tools that I will be picking up on to help us build mindshare and following.I would definitely value more time with Rob and will be very likely to use his services in the future as we grow the business.

I attended an advice clinic and found the session very useful. It's a lot take in, but have a bunch of actionable points I'd like to try. Many were obvious but I hadn't really tried them - like the recommendations on LinkedIn to manage my online reputation. I liked the fact that many of them didn't require a big budget to be successful.It's been very useful and I need to do my homework now.I would recommend other business owners to talk to Rob & WSI as this is an area often overlooked by businesses.

Also advice on platforms that will make my marketing easier and give me back useful feedback and guidance.

In the fall of 2016, while at our Global Convention in Toronto, I participated in an Advanced Training session on Marketing Automation and learned about a key service I can provide my clients going forward.
MA offers full transparency to the process of cultivating new customers for your business throughout all of the stages of the sales cycle or funnel. Rob provided useful and practical examples of how he delivers the service for his clients. Additionally, this can be used for my business and building new relationships with future clients (drink from the same well). Rob, per usual, did an outstanding job of making the material come to life in a useful, entertaining manner. Each time he trains and delivers on digital marketing he teaches me relevant concepts. He is absolutely "go to" for all things digital marketing, whether you are a small business owner or in need of extra horsepower at larger firms. You will enjoy the conversation and create new possibilities for your business goals. Give him a call to start the discussion.

I just attended the Advanced Training Session at the Global Convention in Toronto last week. I participated from one of Rob Thomas Talks on the subject "Marketing Automation" and found it insightful for both, B2B and B2C Solutions. The simplicity with which the subject was presented encouraged me to learn more about it ,,, I recommend anyone (from CMOs to Marketing / Sales Analysts) taking the time to review the additional info. & resources shared by Rob and assist to some of his future sessions on this subject. For a "newbi" non techi guy like me, it's great to find the easy lesson and get started. Thanks to Rob and Team for sharing it. Ovidio More...

Rob has both expertise and passion for social selling. I enjoyed the session he held about this subject during the 2015 WSI Annual Convention. I learned how to use social media as a tool for prospecting and lead generation. I will certainly implement his advice and useful tips as I start my new venture with WSI. In fact, I have already enrolled for his master class on social selling and I also recommend small and medium size business representatives to attend as you will learn how to leverage this technology to gain competitive advantage.

Prior to Rob's speech on 'Improving your sales with Social Selling' I was fairly confident in our company's existing policy on Social Selling.
..I came away seeing this wasn't quite the case and there were so many ways we could improve the social selling side of the business.
Since the course, we have already started to capitalise on some of the key points he made regarding the potential LinkedIn could have for our company when attracting and providing services to prospective customers.
I would not hesitate to recommend Rob's courses to anyone thinking of attending.

Rob organised the WSI digital marketing summit at Gloucester; we found it was well organised, at an excellent venue, and most importantly a good variety of speakers who offered some very valuable points.
We both went away with some good action points, and also with the knowledge that attending had been time very well spent. How Rob managed to wangle the contributors he did, we'll probably never know - but that's obviously why he's so good at what he does...
My heartfelt thanks, Rob.

Rob came to my company, Adactus, and gave a session on the basics of using LinkedIn. As a recent job mover I felt I was a reasonably confident LinkedIn user however the session that Rob led gave me greater insight into the benefits of having a full profile set up and he explained some great tips, such as getting the personalised URL.
The biggest benefits from the session with was the impact of having a decent company page, both from the point of getting new prospects and recruitment. There is a lot of work for the team at Adactus to do to make the company page up to the level required however Rob knew his stuff and gave excellent guidance on what to focus on to have the greatest benefit.
Rob's delivery was clear and the content was set at the right level, high level but going into the detail with examples when we required him to do so

I am a supplier who has been exhibiting at CJ wedding fayres for several years. Throughout that time my business has grown, in no small part due to the success I have had at CJ Wedding Fayres. They always manage to get the couples to attend through their experience of marketing and hard work. Their team in the office is helpful and professional and any enquiries I have are always handled quickly and effectively. I hope to be exhibiting with CJ Wedding Fayres for many years to come. I would highly recommend them to both suppliers, and to couples who are looking for great wedding fayres with a selection of great wedding suppliers. More...

SITE (Including website design & build | eCommerce | Mobile App etc)
OUR SITE SOLUTIONS MAKE AN IMPRESSION
Imagine walking into the head office of a big, global brand. The space is huge, the decor impressive and the atmosphere kinetic. But there’s a problem: there’s no front desk with a smiling receptionist to receive and direct you to where you need to go. You’re disappointed and surprised by the apparent oversight of such a large and popular company. Your opinion of the brand is now the polar opposite of what it once was, just because they didn’t have the one thing you were expecting them to have.
Although the Internet isn’t a physical location, it most certainly is a place. And judging by the increasing percentage of the world’s population who uses (and occupies) the Internet, it’s a place where most people expect businesses and companies to be. If your business doesn’t have a digital presence in the form of a website, it’s very likely having the same effect as the receptionist-less company - that is, it’s changing people’s perception of your business (and not for the better).
Your Presence Matters
WSI’s site solutions ensure that your business isn’t noticeably absent from the party. We’ll help you put your best foot forward and make a great first impression that’s consistent with what potential customers and visitors are expecting. Whether it’s fully optimized landing pages that churn out conversions, great content that attracts visitors, or advanced analytics that return important campaign metrics, we’ve got your site solutions covered.
SEARCH (Search Engine Marketing, Incl. Google PPC, Display, Re-Marketing etc)
NATURAL SEARCH SOLUTIONS
As awesome as Google is, a world with search engines can be strangely backwards. A physical store might very well exist in plain site of passersby, but if the business can’t be found in the search results and doesn’t have a website, it’s likely losing out on customers and in some cases, will fail before it ever gets off the ground.
Tech savvy potential customers - which is a percentage perpetually on the rise - could be right around the corner from the kind of business they’re actually looking for, but if it doesn’t turn up in their mobile search results, they’ll likely end up travelling further only to give their business to a competitor.
Our search solutions ensure that this won’t happen to your business. We’ll analyze what your competitors are doing, where they’re showing up and how you can get ahead of them. There’s a perfect mix of search solutions out there for your business, it just takes a little digging to get to determine where you need to be.
The Way Up
If you’re lucky, you might be in an industry with untapped organic ranking potential. If not, we can dive deep and unearth some long-tail gold. We can also run pay-per-click campaigns for quick wins, or delve into display advertising if your budget is a little bigger. But don’t worry, we’ll get you noticed.
SOCIAL (Incl. Social Media | Marketing Automation | eMail Marketing | Social Selling etc)
SIMPLE SOCIAL SOLUTIONS
It’s certainly possible to use the Internet without encountering social media. Possible, but not likely, and becoming less likely by the day. Social media has swarmed us even faster than the Internet infiltrated our daily routines in what seems like ages ago (but in reality is only a few decades).
Contrary to what many companies are or were hoping, we’re not just connecting with our family and friends on social media. More businesses are implementing social solutions and communicating with consumers on a social level, which means if you’re not socially active and available, you aren’t being found in the places where your potential customers expect you to be. If this sounds like your business, your absence is being noted. And it’s only getting worse the longer you don’t show up.
Start Small And Grow
WSI’s social solutions were built to help your business understand the social scene and make it easier to enter the fray. It can be intimidating and overwhelming, but we’re here to help. Our social solutions can lay the groundwork for social media marketing, expand your outreach with video marketing, and help you stay engaged with your current and potential customers with email marketing.
MOBILE (Incl. Mobile & Fully Responsive Websites | Text Marketing etc)
BE WHEREVER YOUR CUSTOMERS GO
These days, you can do anything on the move. You can bank, trade stocks, order food, watch sports and movies, and of course, communicate in a variety of ways, all from a small smartphone.
But the term ‘mobile’ is about more than just smartphones. People move around a lot, we always have. We walk, ride bikes, drive cars, take public transit, travel on airplanes and even spaceships. And now that we live in a world of perpetual connectivity, we also want to remain plugged in.
Out Of This World
Canadian astronaut Commander Chris Hadfield is a perfect example. Hadfield became an Internet sensation while in space - it doesn’t get any more mobile than that. He was active on his Twitter account, posted a ton of pictures and videos, communicated via email and stayed updated on the world below via the Internet.
Constant Movement
Consumers travel from their homes, to the office, to off-site meetings, to a stop at the coffee shop, then back to work for the afternoon before heading back home. That’s a lot of movement.
A consumer might visit your site on their desktop at work, read an email from you on their tablet while at a meeting, and check you out on Twitter from their smartphone at the coffee shop. It’s becoming increasingly more important for businesses to maintain a connected and consistent presence across multiple platforms.
