Case Studies

Elmhurst Enterprises Limited

Elmhurst Enterprises (EE), which is closely associated to Edgbaston-based Elmhurst Ballet School Trust, has tapped into advice from Route 2 Investment and Moore Stephens to promote ‘previously undiscovered’ leisure and conference facilities to customers across the world.

Following discussions with investment readiness programme ‘Route 2 Investment’, Elmhurst Enterprises was put in touch with Moore Stephens, who were charged with the task of creating a robust marketing plan and raising the subsequent finance needed to turn it into reality.

The bold marketing drive is already reaping dividends with over £100,000 of new business in the pipeline as companies, public sector bodies and charities look to take advantage of the 240-seater professional theatre, seven dance studios and high quality overnight accommodation.

Elmhurst now possesses the relevant tools it needs to complete its ambitious target of delivering a six figure sales income by the end of 2007, a target it is well on the way to reaching.
