2009 – The Year of Opportunity

RFT Express wish all their Customers and Clients, Staff, Contract Couriers and Readers a Happy and Prosperous 2010.
It has been some time since I have managed to write a blog, due entirely to pressure of work, please accept my apologies for this.
The planned expansion during 2009, exceeded all parameters and goals we had set, and resulted in everybody taking to the road to fulfil our obligations to our customers and clients, including at times office staff. This was very much appreciated.
We expected the pressure to ease during the Christmas and New year break, when a lot of firms close for a the festive season, but true to form this wasn’t to be, with two new contracts starting, one two days before Christmas, and the other just after Christmas.
RFT had request for help from 4 major companies, to take up their extra work loads at Christmas, unfortunately we had to decline. These companies were experiencing a similar growth to that we had experienced since April, but had failed to plan for it.
Our planned expansion during 2009 came from two major sources, firstly new customers finding us on the internet. Our niche market, ‘Hanging Garment Deliveries UK and Europe’ was continually coming top in the organic searches on Google in the UK and all the European Google search engines. Our core business ‘Pallet Deliveries UK and Europe’ also featured high in these searches. The other major source for the increase came from recommendations from our customers and clients, for which we give them a special ‘Thank You.’
RFT Express have a lot of exciting plans for 2010, more news on these will follow shortly.
