National summit for accountants and solicitors launches this month

By Anita Jaynes on 11 September, 2017

Businessman and 4Networking member Fidel Beauhill has launched the first ever Financial and Legal Services Summit thanks to inspiration from his fellow members.

Fidel, who runs financial and estate planning company Legally Secure, has created the summit which takes place later this month in Cheltenham to encourage members of his own business sector to be more courageous when it comes to marketing and publicity.

Fidel said: “I want to bring professionals together from the financial and legal services in order for them to gain industry specific marketing and publicity tips. The public often view us as a dull group of people, and I believe with the right help we can change this perception.

Known for his extrovert personality, colourful jackets and his tag line – ‘we’re all going to die’, Fidel feels his sector needs to get comfortable with talking about themselves as well as their business services.

The idea for the summit came from 4Networking (4N) which supports thousands of business owners across the UK at over 5,000 events a year and has 250 active groups in England, Wales and Scotland. It was established 11 years ago and all members can visit any group at any time.

Fidel said: “Today it’s crucial to understand how to stand out on social media and elsewhere and how to market effectively to customers. 4N has helped me to do that and to encourage me to embrace my personality and it’s worked. I’m determined to run events like the summit quarterly and help many of us increase our press coverage and public relations’ profiles.”

Since Fidel became a 4N member eighteen months ago, he has successfully built on the brand of his financial and estate planning business.

He said: “When I set up on my own it meant I could personally explore the image I wanted to project. 4N has helped me massively in successfully achieving this. My company tag line ‘We’re All Going To Die’ came about as a direct result of being part of this organisation.”

The first Financial and Legal Services Summit will be held on Thursday September 21 from 10am at The Cheltenham Chase Hotel, Shurdington Road, Brockworth, GL3 4PB. Tickets cost £75.00 and there are still some places available.
