We were only too happy to help an inspiring new business, especially when they lay on a fantastic spread for us!

Chris Monkman Private Dining is the latest venture for one of Yorkshire’s really talented entrepreneurs in the field of catering and hospitality. As his website shows, Chris has an impressive CV: Monkmans Bistro – Pool in Wharfedale, Monkmans Cookhouse – Ilkley,Monkmans – Ilkley, Monkfish – Ilkley, The Fleece – Addingham,The Wellington Inn – Harrogate. Latterly he worked alongside award winning Ilkley butcher David Lishman, as a consultant chef.

Now he can work for you and so, after he cooked up an amazing feast for an event we organised, we thought it would be great to say thanks in our own special way…through the medium of video.

We recorded a video (click here to see it) testimonial highlighting the excellent work that he had done and it was posted on social media outlets such as Facebook, Twitter, Linked In etc.

The results were amazing according to Chris with the number of hits rapidly adding up in a short space of time. “I can’t believe we have had over 2,000 hits on the video in just two days,” he said. Although we were happy, we weren’t too surprised. As we constantly point out to our clients and friends, embedding video or using links to You Tube are guaranteed to increase your traffic, not only on your dedicated website but also through the numerous social media channels at your fingertips.

We are also pleased to report that Chris was so delighted with our help for his new business, he’s offered to cook up a storm for us the next time we are in Yorkshire. That’s one promise www will definitely follow up on.

We wish him the very best of good fortune with his new venture
