When most people think about mobile technology their first
thought is probably about telephones.
We are really excited by the application of technology in other business areas.
One of the areas we seen significantly benefits for business
is vehicle tracking. Not only do we offer vehicle tracking but
we can also offer tracking on company mobile telephones.
Whatever vehicles are used within your business, you can
manage them with vehicle tracking.

Welcome to the launch edition of our
newsletter! There is so much going on in
our business that we have been bursting to
share it.
We want our newsletter to be different from most of the ones you may
have seen - it’s more about YOUR business than OURS. Our passion is
digital technology and more specifically - digital communications.
As communication technology has developed and evolved, we have
grown with it.
The smartphone era has seen a huge leap forward
in the capabilities of communication devices.
We take great pride in being able to provide
advice and solutions that work best for
their business.

Easy joined up
communication
Your phone’s small screen isn’t as good as a tablet’s or laptop for
browsing the web or streaming videos. The good news is that it’s possible
to use your smartphone as a portable Wi-Fi hotspot. This is called tethering
and many smartphones provide this feature.
The process involves enabling the hotspot option on your phone, setting up
wireless security with a password, then connecting your tablet to the wireless
network just as you would with any hotspot.
We suggest you keep a close eye on how much data is being used whilst
tethering by using a dedicated app on your phone. There are plenty of
free apps available as well as network specific one’s.
If you have any questions, want help setting up your phone or
to see if your phone and tariff are capable of tethering give
Oliver, Dan or Russell a call.

Benefits
Big savings on fuel
Greatly improved route efficiency
immensly increased productivity
Better customer service
Potentially lower insurance premiums

Each issue we’ll be
giving this space for
our cutomers to fill.
At Codeblue, we
believe in the power
of referrals.

with heart and soul
At Codeblue Group we try to do our best
to support those in need. Have a look at
our recent initiatives:

Alex on the Streets

Bradford based
waste solutions company Kar
Skip and Grab Hire have signed a
sponsorship agreement with the Bradford
Bulls. Bradford based Kar will be responsible
for all waste solutions and recycling at the
Provident Stadium for the next two years.
Commenting on the agreement today Bulls
Chairman Omar Khan said:
“We are delighted that Kar have come on board with
us. Once again it is another local business showing
their support for the Bulls in the city. Their support for
us is tremendous and their contribution to the club is
immense. We hope they will remain partners with us for
many years
to come.”

We’ve been working with Simon on the Streets for some time now,
working at the soup kitchen - this local charity focuses on helping
homeless people restore their lives back to normal. Last month
one of our apprentices, Alex Holdsworth, decided to participate
in a one-night rough-sleeping event in order to collect money
from those willing to sponsor the charity. Alex managed to
gather over £200 from Code Blue Group workers, friends
and family. This young aspiring salesman commented: “The
event was eye-opening. We simply don’t realize the difficulties
Wilby Ltd nominated
homeless people face every day - things like inability to open
for 2 awards at this years Halifax
a bank account and therefore find work. That’s one of the things
Courier Business Awards
Simon on the Streets helps with. The charity is not government
funded, because realizing set targets is not possible in this
Halifax based insurance and risk management
environment. But you get to meet people who’ve made it,
specialist, Wilby Limited, is celebrating after being
who got out and changed their lives. It’s inspiring.”
nominated for 2 awards at The Halifax Courier Business

99p well spent
If you thought 99p won’t do much, think again.
Forget Me Not Children’s Hospice encourages
local businesses to become members and
commit to donating 99p a day in order to
help them reach their annual fundraising
target of £2.5 million. The 99ers with
Codeblue Group amongst them can
help make a real difference to the lives
of local children, young people and families
who rely on Forget Me Not invaluable help.

Awards 2013. Wilby Limited are in the final 3 for both
Business of the Year and Employer of the Year.

To be nominated in these categories means a business has to
show growth and development, support to the community and
social responsibility policy, adapt to market changes,
demonstrate commitment to environmental improvements,
commitment to staff development and training and show that
they do a little bit extra for their employees to create a good
working environment.
Wilby Limited’s Director, Richard Blackburn commented “This
is an excellent achievement for us, the award nominations
reflect all the hard work from everyone.”
The awards dinner will take place on the
14th of November at The Shay in Halifax.
