Media Release - Regional design experts lead the way

The fourth annual Australia Business & IT Expo (ABITE) opens Thursday 29 July at the Melbourne Convention Centre.  A feature of the two day event is the comprehensive seminar program with nine presenters from across Australia, all leaders in their field.  Tim Gentle, Managing Director of regional Victoria’s Design Experts will present ‘Email Marketing - Doing it legally, doing it smart’ at 2.30pm on Friday 30 July.
 
A marketer for 15 plus years and a specialist in effective on-line solutions, Tim Gentle has delivered 200 plus workshops, many in country Victoria, to help small businesses maximize their potential online. Tim’s Australia Business & IT Expo (ABITE) seminar will focus on creating, sending, tracking and managing email marketing to powerfully communicate with existing clients and generate new ones. 
 
Two years ago, Tim and his wife Kylie, who both have rural backgrounds, established Design Experts in Echuca and are proud to be based in Regional Victoria.   Their original tiny team has grown to include 9 full-time staff and a network of consultants and partners. This week they opened a second studio in Bendigo. Design Experts don’t just measure their success on their size or the sheer volume of websites they have built, but also on the diversity of their clients from right across Australia.
 
Despite their regional address, or maybe because of it, Design Experts find themselves building web solutions for many big city based businesses.  "It must be the country air that provides my team with the creative space required to develop our clients’ online marketing solutions" Tim Gentle, Design Experts Managing Director said.  “Or it could be that we don’t need to deal with train delays, road tolls, elevators and car parks in the morning, so we are calm and relaxed from the get go” Tim continued.
 
Tim Gentle has a Masters in Multimedia, Bachelor of Business, Trainers and Assessment Certificate and is also Workshop Leader for Small Business Victoria.  Tim and the members of the Design Experts team will also be at their exhibition stand throughout the entire Australia Business & IT Expo.
