New Unplugged event announced


To mark the closing day of Global Entrepreneurship Week, If We Can You Can is hosting an Unplugged event in partnership with Get British Business Online.

Friday 19th November from 8:30am – 11am at the Regus Centre The Axis Building, Maingate, Kingsway North, Team Valley, Gateshead NE11 0NQ

Using the successful Unplugged format we will hear from experts in the fields of e-commerce, Search Engine Optimisation, Internet Marketing and Web Design. So far, confirmed to be in the hot seats are If We Can You Can member Darren Williams of Hair X-Tensions Ltd and Gary Boon from Shout Digital. More speakers are being confirmed as we speak, so watch this space!

Darren started off running raves for under 18s and created a website to stream live raves in Stockton and host forums, chats and profiles on the country’s DJs and rave scenes. Within 6 months he had filled the music venue with 2000 people, regularly attending every month, and through the success of his website managed to attract a member base of over 26,000 members, with 900+ people online at any given time, and 3.5 million messages left in total!

Upon selling this website Darren then moved to help his partner with their current business selling hair & beauty products on to 30,000 customers around the world. Hair X-Tensions Ltd now boasts a huge international client base, turning over nearly one million pounds. Darren’s biggest investment to date has been for the domain name www.hairextensions.co.uk for £30,000 which went live in September and has turned over nearly half of that already.

Shout Digital is founded on an ethos of providing cutting-edge expertise, innovation and excellent client service and see themselves as the ultimate answer for all things digital.
