An Eltham businesswoman has seen her wedding exhibition company go from strength to strength since its launch in May last year.
Owner of Best Brides, Claudia Jordan, feels her background as a consultant, manager and troubleshooter for a recruitment agency has been good preparation for this business.
She has organised events at the House of Commons and run seminars in customer service. Claudia has also lead business courses at Charlton Athletic Football Club.
After the birth of her daughter eight years ago, she worked three jobs simultaneously and so is used to coping with pressure.
The experience of these jobs has also enabled Claudia to help exhibitors at her shows. She explained: "My exhibitors may be talented at making tiaras or wedding invitations, but a lot of the time they can't sell themselves.
"So I spend time giving advice to new companies."
