T���K L CAL ��Y L CAL We’re really lucky... our local area is full of wonderful small businesses
There are heaps of reasons to buy from local companies Here are 5 big reasons for using your local businesses: 1. They know their customers Local businesses understand people in the area. They’re quick to react to what their customers want and are able to meet the changing needs of the local population. This means they can offer you relevant and interesting products and services rather than the larger, more commercial companies that generally provide the same things no matter where you live.
2. They create jobs Shops in our towns create jobs within the local community. By purchasing from these smaller businesses, you’re helping to grow employment opportunities which in turn, makes the area a better place to live and work.
3. The experience There’s nothing quite like the personal touch that comes with the customer service in a local shop. They get to know you and can offer products and services that best meet your needs. Plus, they have an authenticity that the bigger brands can’t usually match. What’s not to like?!
4. They’re better for the environment Local businesses often source their products locally, which helps to reduce their carbon footprint.
5. Great deals - you’ll be surprised! Don’t assume that chain stores have the best deals - local businesses can have competitive pricing that you might not expect. Before you hit Google, take the time to have a look around your area and see what’s on offer. Which local businesses do you love?

WHAT POLITICS USED TO BE LIKE! Great Churchillian Quotes That Stand The Test Of Time
H
is enormous influence on the way British people were able to survive the second world war can’t be underestimated yet despite that, Winston Churchill’s political career was not always straightforward. One still can’t help thinking, however, that if he were still here to handle the current difficult situation, things would be considerably better going forward. We recently discovered some of his great quotations and thoroughly enjoyed them. We hope you do too! Diplomacy is the art of telling people to go to hell in such a way that they ask for directions. You will never reach your destination if you stop and throw stones at every dog that barks. Fear is a reaction. Courage is a decision. A nation that forgets its past has no future. The positive thinker sees the invisible, feels the intangible and achieves the impossible. If you’re not a liberal at twenty you have no heart. If you’re not a conservative at forty you have no brain.
Page 22
Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance and the gospel of envy; its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery. There is nothing government can give you that they haven’t taken from you in the first place. The best argument against democracy is a five minute conversation with the average voter. Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm. A good speech should be like a woman’s skirt; long enough to cover the subject but short enough to create interest. A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty. If Britain must choose between Europe and the open sea, she must always choose the open sea. One man with convictions will overwhelm a hundred men who have only opinions. The main vice of capitalism is the uneven distribution of prosperity. The main vice of socialism is the even distribution of misery. September 2021 | Local Answer | Tel: 01642 296513

Life can either be accepted or changed. If it is not accepted it must be changed. If it cannot be changed , then it must be accepted. We contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket trying to life himself by the handle. In the course of my life I have often had to eat my words, and I must confess I have always found it a wholesome diet.

Healthy Eating BROCCOLI AND TOFU STIR FRY
I
f you fancy noodles, instead of reaching for a manufactured pot noodle which has very little nutrients, try this recipe which includes broccoli (full of vitamins, iron, calcium and fibre) and tofu (containing iron, calcium, protein and essential amino acids). To make it a quick recipe, steam the broccoli while frying the tofu, then while stir frying and combining the ingredients below cook the noodles. Ingredients 2 tablespoons veg oil, 2 cloves garlic, 1 inch fresh ginger cut into matchsticks, 150g fried tofu, 2 tablespoons light soy sauce, 1 cup chopped broccoli, including sliced stalk, ½ teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon sugar, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, dessertspoon cornflour mixed with 2 tablespoons water, egg or rice noodles. Chop the broccoli and thinly slice the broccoli stalk (after cutting off outer hard part) then steam it until almost soft. Cut tofu into ½ inch cubes and fry in a non stick pan until lightly browned.
Take broccoli out of pan and put aside, then briefly swish the cooked tofu in the hot water from the broccoli. Take it out and put it aside with the broccoli. Put your water on to boil for the noodles. Chop garlic and ginger. Put veg oil in a frying pan and cook garlic & ginger on medium heat for a few minutes. Add the broccoli, tofu, soy sauce, salt, sugar and sesame oil. Add cornflour mixture and stir until it thickens (add more water if you want the sauce thinner). Serve with cooked noodles (or stir noodles in and mix. ‘Healthy Eating’ courtesy of Sue Lorrimer.

Business
HOW TO MARKET YOUR BUSINESS ON A BUDGET Times are hard. Businesses are going through more challenges than ever and maybe your marketing efforts have, understandably, taken a back seat. Being savvy with your marketing budget can make you stand out from the competition without needing a limitless spend. And good news! It’s easier than you probably think. Here are 4 ways to keep you ahead: 1. Printed Advertising This is especially effective if your business focus is on a specific area. Placing a printed ad in the Local Answer is a low-cost way of getting the attention of your audience. Generally speaking, printed media has a better recall value than other mediums. It also builds trust in your brand. For more information about advertising in the Local Answer, call Yvette on 01642 296523, Monday to Thursday, 9am to 4pm.

2. Social Media Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest - they’re all free to use. Make sure you have a business page that you can promote and be as regular as possible when it comes to posting. Your messaging should be clear for these platforms to work. Links can be added to posts to drive traffic to your site, too. Social media lets you build brand awareness at no cost… Make it count! 3. Content Marketing This is one of the best marketing strategies. Creating top-notch online content is a powerful way of getting your brand out there. It shows your audience that you have expertise and a genuine interest in helping them. You can share your content in heaps of places (blog posts, social media, emails, brochures, etc). If writing isn’t your cup of tea or you don’t have the time to commit to such an important aspect of marketing, you could hire a professional to do this for you.

4. Email Marketing You may already have a database of email subscribers. If so, email can be a superb method of marketing to them. It’s worth putting some thought into your newsletters and their subject line to really capture the attention of your readers. This will set your emails apart from the mountain of them probably sitting in their inbox! There are lots of tools online that can help you in terms of email templates and even ones that will assist you in creating a subject with pizzazz that subscribers can’t resist opening. Make sure you’re GDPR compliant! Final Thoughts With a bit of planning and the right mix of activities, there’s no reason that a small marketing budget can’t have a big impact.

Football - The 'Boro
A MIXED START FOR 'BORO BUT FANS LIVE UP TO ALL EXPECTATIONS
W
hile it’s been a bit of a mixed start for Boro, the return to live football has been absolutely brilliant and ‘Boro’s fans have certainly lived up to all of Neil Warnock’s often expressed expectations. Sensational at Fulham, deafening at the Riverside and yet another sell-out at Derby is a great indication of the tremendous support ‘Boro enjoy. That loyalty is hopefully being repaid by Steve Gibson with another couple of signings now in place, more to come and a squad that certainly promises much more depth in almost every department? The spine of the team has certainly looked much better with Uchi Ikpeazo impressing with both his strength and work rate, and the find of the season
so far with sparkling performances from Isiah Jones. That said, there are questions already being asked about Joe Lumley, with two of the QPR goals definitely stoppable! It’s early days though, and Warnock has plenty of time to work with his new look squad to identify the best eleven and the best way to use them. Perhaps the biggest effect the return of crowds and media has had in our first few games, however, has seen Neil Warnock revert to the ebullient, demonstrative figurehead he has become famous - or should say infamous - for over the years. I have to say that the performance of him - and indeed the entire ‘Boro bench at Fulham left a lot to be desired with attacks on the referee made very early in the game.

He followed that up with protests after the QPR game that independents considered somewhat over the top. From a Boro fans’ point of view we obviously want to see our manager strive to get the best results for us, but there have been occasions already this season where his somewhat industrial language and unattractive behaviour have been prominent. That one of those occasions was at the pre-season friendly at Bishop Auckland makes one wonder about its relevance at a time when everyone should simply be grateful for once again being able to visit live football. But, with forthcoming home fixtures featuring ties against Tony Mowbray’s Blackburn Rovers, newly promoted Blackpool where, unlike the cup game they will be facing our first team, and
the so far underperforming Sheffield United there is a real chance for a degree of positive consistency. Away fixtures also offer a degree of hope with Coventry, Nottingham Forest and Hull City all coming up in the near future. Boro’s ‘glass half empty’ brigade, however, will probably look on a few of those with a bit of trepidation and perhaps that can only be seen as a good thing because it gives the sort of balanced outlook that should keep everybody’s feet firmly on the ground. In the meantime let’s continue to enjoy the fantastic return of live football with all its hopes, dreams and - because we’re ‘Boro fans - inevitable disappointments. But let’s be honest, we wouldn’t have it any other way. Have a great month.
