Business Testimonials

Graeme, VP Online
Thank you SCEMES. I couldn’t believe how fast and easy it was to set up my details on the scemes website and within only a week being live on the site I had a large contract made with a local school. I have now expanded my advertising budget with scemes and have placed an advert within the handbook. Hope to do business again next year.

Lisa Rossetti, Positive Lives
I am very pleased with the customer service from Scemes. The sales advisors were helpful and at no times pressured me, which is a refreshing change. The standard of interactivity and design on the website is good. And I am pleased to say that I have recently received some business from my listing on the Scemes website.

I shall be recommending your organisation to others in my field as good value for money and a pleasure to deal with.

Steve Carney, Origin Energy
I placed the add some months ago and last week I got a call from a headmaster. He wanted to discuss some services he required so we paid him a visit. When we went into his office he had the SCEMES Directory open and showed us our half-page ad that had caught his eye. We're putting a proposal to him now and hopefully we will be able to help him and his school. He also mentioned several other schools in our area which are requiring the same service. Fingers-crossed!

Tim Townsend, Marketing & Tenders Executive, Andron Contract Services Ltd
Just a quick note to say that we are impressed with the service we are receiving, and the number of opportunities that are coming our way - keeping us very busy!!

Jim Caldwell, William Channon
I am pleased to confirm that I came about your publication by attending a governors‘ meeting at our local primary school, and have today booked advertising with you on this basis. The support and contact I have received from your office has been excellent, and I eagerly await the results for the coming year. Thank you.

First Aid Company From Greater Manchester
Many thanks for all your help in the past but you are the victim of your own success. I no longer feel the need to place an advert with you as I have just won a very good contract with a large organisation and would find it very difficult to supply first aid training to any one else for at least three years.

I would like to wish your firm well for the future and hope that others will be as happy as I have been with your help.

Bob Taylor, NANT Ltd
Just like to say since we joined the SCEMES site for advertising we have been extremely pleased with the response we have received.

Linda, Childs Eye Media
We have been delighted with the instant terrific response to our advertisement about our recycling DVD for young children. We have also been very impressed with the helpfulness, professionalism and expertise of the SCEMES team.
With very many thanks

Jim King, Manufacturing Director, Eco Timber Buildings
I am pleased to write and tell you that we are overwhelmed with the response that we have received following the adverts for our Eco Eco‘le Environmental Classroom Range.

So far, in the four days since we received our copy, we have received enquiries from schools totalling over £70,000. What an excellent publication and medium for suppliers of environmental products to the educational market.

We are so pleased that we wish to reserve the same two page spread in your next Sustainable Procurement publication.

Jim King, Manufacturing Director, Eco Timber Buildings
Further to my letter of 16 May 2007, I am very pleased to write to you again so soon and tell you that we are totally overwhelmed with the response that we have received following the adverts for our Eco Eco‘le Environmental Classroom Range.

So far, in the five weeks since we received our copy, we have received enquiries from schools totalling over £200,000, with one enquiry worth over £40,000.

Your excellent publication has, for us, been the best medium for reaching the educational market. Our only concern is our ability to service the volume of enquiries and interest that this success has generated!

Colin Allen, Anglian InterTrading Company
Being only tiny, our investment in launching the safety reflective jacket scheme in the 2007 Eco Guide could not be taken lightly.

But thanks to Becky‘s advice and support, our decision has been fully vindicated by the range of enquiries received from UK schools.

So much so, we are currently revamping our website, have just committed ourselves to the 2007/08 Procurement Supplement and anticipate widening our partnership with SCEMES in 2008/09 with a wider range of our cost-effective services.

National Schoolwear Centres
Although we have only been with you for a short time, we have had a response from a school totally out of our district who found our details through you. We were able to supply the school with weight-lifting leotards for a group of lads who were entered into a competition. At a later date we will also be supplying them with athletic vests for the school team.

I am looking forward to receiving more responses.

Cooltech UK
We write to inform that within the first week of being published in the SCEMES Schools Handbook Cooltech UK received two enquiries for air conditioning, one from a school in Nottingham and one from a school in Leicester
Many Thanks

Mrs M Randell, Safetyboss Ltd
After using the SCEMES directory we are delighted to say that we won a major contract with Schools and Colleges, therefore not only are we happy to renew our annual subscription with you, but we would also recommend SCEMES to anybody who wishes to do business with Schools, Colleges and Universities as we have found it very successful. Again, thank you for your professionalism in all matters and I will look forward to another prosperous year together.

Robert Pickens III, Transatlantic American
"Thanks for taking my call, and for the website address. It looks like SCEMES.COM is developing a comprehensive B2B directory of product and service providers to the education industry. The combination of recruitment, supplies and services all on one site is a strong attraction to professional educators.

Christopher Brooks, Barwick Accounting
Thank you for adding my business details to your website so very promptly, I am very impressed with the professionalism you have demonstrated in your dealings with me.

Stuart Quick, Computer Developments UK
"We were recommended by The Lady Law School from Oxfordshire, a school that we currently supply to. They suggested that if we want to supply to more schools then we should contact SCEMES for more information."
