I cannot count the numerous times I encountered web-based 'hitches & glitches' at my previous job. And Nick would always be there with his team members willing to offer any help needed to efficiently finish my task at hand. His patience is amazing, his knowledge unprecedented, and his help was always appreciated! I would recommend him for any company and would instantly work with him again.

Enthusiastic, determined, strong leadership skills and a great communicator. I enjoyed working with Nick during my time at Carlton. I found him to be an exceptional web manager who was able to communicate with people on all levels. A true professional.

During the time i worked alongside Nick i found him extremely professional, knowledgable and open to new ideas and suggestions. His knowledge speaks volumes and his easy going manner enables him to translate his ideas and advice in a clear and concise manner. He is a credit to his profession and any organisation would benefit greatly by having him on there team.

As far as implementing and understanding online media he is your man.

I recruited Nick into the Marketing team at BAA when I was the Head of Marketing at Stansted. He proved to be a great asset, not only with his knowledge and expertise in the field of digital media but also as an enthusiastic, positive member of the team who was wiling to take on new projects that often fell outside of his normal remit. He was always keen to find better ways of utilising the media, keeping up to date with new developments and was a valuable member of the team. I would certainly work with him again if the opportunity arose.

Nick Davis, Advice on using WordPress to run a successful site answered:

Depends on the route you go but the pros of outsourcing could mean you get more ideas up front.

For example if you go down the route of a site like 99designs which lets multiple designers compete for your work and you choose the idea / design you like best.

You could also engage a few different designers either from personal recommendations or a site like Elance.

The cons might be the cost (if your in-house designer is already on the payroll there's no 'extra' cost like with outsourcing) and also the ability to physically sit next to your designer and discuss play with ideas though with Skype, Dropbox and similar tools you should be able to offset some of that.

Hope that's helpful, but let me know if that's not what you had in mind when asking.

(PS I talk about 99designs / Elance in an article / video I did previously here: http://nickdavis.co/web-design-outsource-templates/ )

Nick Davis, Advice on using WordPress to run a successful site answered:

Hey, I build / advise on WordPress sites myself and although I've not tried it yet when I saw your question I immediately thought of:

http://kingsumo.com/apps/giveaways/

Which is created by AppSumo (they used it for some of their very successful contests I think).

It's designed to work with WordPress and costs $198 for a lifetime on a single site (they did a promo for it but that's ended now unfortunately).

Hope this helps :)

Nick
