How to get found in Leeds

Melissa O'Donnell • September 5, 2022

Being a Leeds based company ourselves, we wanted to share some valuable advice and give insight to SME owners about what things they can access and utilise in our exciting city that could help grow their business whilst making valuable business connections.

If you’re looking to connect with local business owners in various industries around the city, gain many new clients, referral partners and of course increase brand awareness, then you could take advantage of some of the networking events that are held in Leeds. Events such as:


Ignite BNI

Pure Networking

Brand Yorkshire

Yorkshire Mafia


The above are a great place to start with building your contacts and exposing your brand to like-minded people. Not all events require a membership so it’s a risk-free way of seeing if it’s something that can help you.


If you’re considering hiring a space for anything ranging from a meeting room to hosting your own event, then follow the link for the Leeds government website which gives a multitude of options for spaces in Leeds: www.leeds.gov.uk/commercial-opportunities/city-centre-advice-on-activities

Promote an event in Leeds

If you're looking for a space to promote an event in Leeds then there are 8 main places in Leeds city center that can be hired on a daily basis. These spaces are in the highest footfall locations in the Yorkshire region and are a great way of promoting your products to a large audience.

 

Pop Art Media Group manages advertising on poster drums illuminated 6-sheet advertising panels on lamp posts and a number of billboard sites around Leeds.


Bay Media manages banner advertising on lamp posts around Leeds city centre, offering a fully managed service that includes print, production, installation, and removal.

This is for many reasons including the fact that Christmas is only celebrated within certain cultures, and the need for products doesn’t suddenly stop once January comes around. So, how do you ensure you’re reaching your customers outside of this peak selling period? Let’s take a look.
