The time has come to enjoy life in a new way...

retirement

As I advised my clients at the beginning of 2019, I am now 71 years old (2020) and with a brain that’s slowing down, in a world that speeding up, the time has come for me to give in gracefully to older age and fully retire.
Officially the doors of David Smerdon Marketing Services closed on the 31st July 2019.  During the previous few months I've helped clients transition their business over to another company, (see below). In all cases this has gone smoothly and I know you are all in safe hands.

David Smerdon Marketing Services has been a wonderful 10 years for me. When I set it up the plan was to semi-retire and just have a small business to keep me busy and my mind active. During that time I’ve had the pleasure of helping dozens of businesses of all types and sizes and I must say, meeting and working for some lovely people. It’s been the most wonderful contrast to my previous 42 years in the Stationery and Toy trade.
 
I’ve been so very lucky, as I can honestly say since I left school at 16, I’ve enjoyed every day of my working life. That was 55 years ago, It’s now 2020 and at 71 the time has come to fully retire. Truthfully, it’s not been an easy decision as I so enjoy the work I do, but I feel the time is right to enjoy the finer things in life, before it's too late. 

Before I finally shut the door, where required, I helped my clients transition over to my recommended company, The Web Design & SEO Company. The owner Diana Crabtree is very qualified and highly experienced with a business ethos very like my own. Not only does she offer similar services to me, but she can take them much further. She is also an expert in Social Media and SEO (Search Engine Optimisation), both of which are key to supporting businesses in this modern age.
