New K-Club Concept Will Generate Significant New Opportunities, Says Founder

July 28, 2012 - PRLog -- CHESHIRE entrepreneur Matthew Townsend, one of the founders behind the K-Club, the North West’s first by invitation-only club exclusive to key entrepreneurs and business leaders, yesterday revealed why he believed it had the potential to generate significant new  opportunities for the region.

The founder of Knutsford-based Ultimate Creative Communications, a company he started in 1994 at the age of nineteen and grew it into a leading UK full service creative agency with national and international blue chip clients including AstraZeneca and Tata, said: “Success breeds success and that’s what the K-Club is about.”

“When we were discussing the idea of a new business club we agreed we wanted a network of like-minded individuals, highly successful people who were prepared to work hard to achieve their goals,” added Mr Townsend who lives in Holmes Chapel.

“The K-Club gives these individuals a forum in which they can discuss the business issues of the day with others. They build friendships and alliances, share their experiences with others and hopefully create a positive environment at a time when the economy is facing some serious challenges.”

“We were determined to position K-Club not as a networking group that attracts solely sales-hungry organisations, but as a Club for major players and achievers - serious businesspeople who want to be a part of a community, which is why it’s by-invitation only.”

“The K-Club is a unique formula that is attracting a great deal of interest. We’ve just successfully completed our second quarterly meeting.”

Matthew, who is also a founder of FundingStore.com - an online matchmaking service linking SMEs and entrepreneurs with funders and advisers - believes some members of the K-Club have already established alliances.

“I didn’t build my businesses by sitting behind a desk,” he added. “I went out there and met people and found the work I wanted. And that’s what I see people doing at K-Club. A unified attitude that will pull this country out of recession is why I am so supportive.”

In fact fellow directors of Matthews’s third company, the Mere-based outsourced business support group, Keystone, have also become regular attendees of the K-Club breakfast meetings.

“Like me, they know that you’ve got to keep working on your business to ensure it is successful and I believe there is no better forum in which to build your business than the K-Club.”
