Marbella is great in the summer time with shows and events building to a peak. This year there’s loads of great things going on with a packed programme of concerts, here’s a run down.
I’m not a fan of football, but I must say that the way Spain plays is a joy to watch. What’s also great is the reaction to the game which is wonderfully flamboyant. Yesterday, for the first time we decided to go and watch the game in a local tapas bar and I am so glad we did.

Summer is here and there’s loads going on. This week we’re really excited because the Marbella Feria has started with a week of Spanish partying to enjoy. Here some more information about the Feria plus a few great events to put in the diary!
I am a firm believer in the power of networking and would always recommend that networking is one of your key marketing tools.
This week there are 4 networking meetings that I’ve heard of and I’ll be going along to most of them. If you want to start marketing your business effectively, why don’t you come along too? It can be a little scary sometimes, but it’s a great way to build awareness of your business, build trust and make professional and personal contacts.
I think Twitter is a great way to share news, promote events and keep up to date with your specialist area for business development. However, one major drawback of networking online through Facebook, Twitter, Linked-In and others, is that your community can be spread around the globe and let’s face it without meeting someone in person it is difficult to build trust in them to the point that you’d engage in business with them! To overcome this, the Twitter community organises what they call Tweet-ups so that those on Twitter in the same area can get together and cement their online relationships.
This Sunday there’s a fair being held in the Parque Alameda just opposite the Old Town in Marbella which celebrates the multi-cultural nature of this great area, whilst raising much-needed funds for Cudeca.
There will be food from all around the world, dance performances, a tombola with some excellent prizes and lots of stalls to browse around. It’s on from 10 in the morning to 9 at night and should be a good event. We’ll be heading along for sure.
