Let me introduce myself

Hello everybody, please let me introduce myself. My name is Mark Hickman, I live in Horsham, West Sussex in the UK, about 8 miles from Gatwick airport.

I moved to Horsham in 1999 after a 15 year stay in Johannesburg, South Africa, I moved back predominantly because of the security and safety issues I was aware of and settled in Horsham.

I have always enjoyed doing the more adventurist things in life, for instance I took part in the GB Bobsleigh Championships in Cesana, Italy, November last year and came 10th. I have flown light aircraft and gliders, I Scuba Dive, (less now than when I was in south Africa) I ski, been on a few helicopter rides and fished for some of the biggest game species in the world. I bungeed at Trappers and jet boated up the Shotover River, Queenstown which is on the Southern island of New Zealand. What a great place to visit.

I like to think of myself as adventurous but not stupid. I have worked for myself for most of my working life, only getting a ‘JOB’ between ideas and businesses, and over the last few years have been involved in developing and launching websites.

There are some fantasic tools available to build websites in quite small time periods, one instance is my site www.litesites.net

And this is what I want to offer to small businesses, a professional on-line presence for a very affordable price.

I am a member of several networking groups, Business Builder Club, Horsham. www.businessbuilderclub.co.uk, Venture Catalyst Crawley www.venture-catalyst.co.uk,  4networking, www.4networking.biz. I have tried BNI but found the statistic driven culture a bit of a pain but all of the people I met there were fantastic.

I have a partner Jan who is lovely and very supportive (thank goodness) and I am always looking for new ideas and ways to market my product.

If anyone reading this wants to visit any of my networking events, visit my website and contact me through that www.litesites.net and in the tips and tools section of my site their are some great free tools for anyone to use free of charge to make sure their websites are listed on the main 4 search engines (Google, Yahoo, MSN Live and Ask) also some links to really good diectories to join.
