Strategist and Head of Business Development and Marketing at Likebees.com
March 2011 - July 2011Likebees.com has one deal per day, per city, up for grabs for one day only. All of our offers are exclusive to Likebees and because we don't work with brands who discount all the time, you can be sure that when we buzz about something, it really is special. If you see something you like, just bag the deal, share it with your friends, print the voucher...and enjoy the experience. So now you are probably wondering who's behind Likebees? Vicky Zadeh, and Michelle Dewberry. You'll recognise Michelle as a winner of BBC's The Apprentice and Vicky is an entrepreneurial mum of two who knows exactly what it's like needing to keep the kids entertained. We've combined our knowledge of the social buying sector and family life to come up with Likebees, the UK's first daily deal site dedicated to saving UK families millions. As part of this amazing hot new start-up I'm working with Michelle and Vicky on everything from Marketing, Sales, Business Strategy, Tea Making, Media Buying and Office Music Selection.
