GROWING TECH COMPANY BLACK NOVA GETS THE ‘THUMBS UP’ FROM FORMER DRAGON THEO PAPHITIS
Tech firm Black Nova has joined an exclusive ‘club’ of businesses after being named an #sbs winner in the social media campaign to celebrate the SME sector set up by Theo Paphitis more than a decade ago.
Kyle Holmes, owner of Black Nova, and his co-founder and wife Danielle, posted on Instagram to Theo about their business during the now famous ‘Small Business Sunday’ project on Twitter & Instagram.
Danielle said, “We did it!! I am unbelievably proud of what we do, our team and what we have achieved. We can’t wait to be an active part of the #sbs community”.
Small business champion and chairman of brands including Ryman Stationery, Robert Dyas and Boux Avenue Theo Paphitis, said: “We are thrilled to welcome new #SBS members every week and highlight just how important it is to support our small businesses here in the UK.
“My vision is that everyone who has ever won an #SBS re-tweet from me becomes part of a friendly club; like-minded individuals who can share successes and learnings. The website will also give a valuable profile to the winners chosen and I wish Black Nova every success.”
The company was chosen as one of six weekly winners to gain a retweet by Theo to his near half a million Twitter followers. The weekly initiative, set up by Theo in 2010, now has over 3,000 #SBS winners and supports small businesses across the UK.
Black Nova has received more followers and extra orders for their web services. They are also profiled on the #SBS website that is exclusive to all Small Business Sunday winners.
Anyone looking for a re-tweet from Theo can tweet him about their business on Sundays between 5 PM and 7.30 PM and include the hashtag #SBS. Six businesses are re-tweeted every Monday at 8 PM and then invited to enter their profile on the new website, attend the annual #SBS networking event and take advantage of being part of a thriving national network of successful small businesses.
