A PLASTERING company is skimming off more work after joining a technology-focused networking group.

Slaithwaite-based Premiere Plastering Services has increased its weekly income by £569 since joining the Referrals Network in January. So far, the company has made more than £11,000 as a result of developing relationships and helping out fellow colleagues and business owners.

The networking group enables businesses to grow through an online business referrals system which allows members to refer business without the penalties of compromising day-to-day business activity.

Scott Moore (left), owner of Premiere Plastering Services, said: “I cannot express how pleased we are with these results.

“Networking is something we never thought would be available to us because we never have spare time. The beauty of this is it doesn’t matter which day or what time we refer! This fits in perfectly with our business.”

Network members meet face-to-face to learn about the services they provide. After that, they communicate online to pass referrals.

The Referrals Network has groups in Huddersfield, Leeds and Wakefield.
