Thank You

Northern Insight has a powerful presence in the region and is much respected by the business community. It offers a diverse range of features and platforms that offer great opportunities for brand building and profile raising.

I have known Mike for more than 10 years, initially through his involvement with North East Times and latterly with his exciting new venture Northern Insight.

Mike certainly has the measure and respect of the North East business community which he has been part of and served so admirably over many years. His new venture provides an exciting and fresh approach to the business community.

I wish Mike all the best for his future prospects with Northern Insight and I am sure with his innovative and creative flair he will make it an great success. Mike’s enthusiasm and ability to develop long lasting relationships will drive the publication on from strength to strength and I am delighted to support him in whatever capacity I can.

Prosper are delighted to have been involved with Northern Insight since its inception and have generated business growth and brand awareness as a result of advertising in the publication. The magazine is the best quality Business publication in the North East which is not surprising as Mike Grahamslaw the driving force behind it is the top magazine proprietor in the North East be some distance. Northern Insight has taken the local magazine market by storm with the quality of production, depth of content with a local bias and expert business opinion surpassing all past and current media alternatives. We will continue to use the title as it fits perfectly with our own ambitions for growth underpinned by quality and a value for money service.

We have worked closely with Mike Grahamslaw and the team at Northern Insight since the publication was launched. We have always found Mike very easy to deal with and helpful to us. I had known Mike for some time before the start of Northern Insight and value our relationship. We see Northern Insight as a key publication for the North East business community.

Mike and I go back a long way – I was Editor of Northern Executive, a quarterly engineering magazine and he was working for North East Times when we first met way back in the mid  90’s. – we were both NUFC, rugby and real ale fans, Geordies who believed in straight talk  and I liked him straight away.

New agencies and new media have sprung up in this digital age but we have the advantage of experience of the pre-digital era when marketing and publishing were very different and relied on honesty and transparency with contacts, and skill and effort at work.

The technology may have changed but those values haven’t, which is maybe why we’re both still in the business when others have come and gone…

I’m always looking for new and varied ways to promote my clients. The exposure my clients get in Northern Insight Magazine is fantastic. Not only do they appear in a high-quality glossy magazine but they are also featured online in the e-version. Being featured is always a talking point and a great way to raise any businesses profile.

I have worked with Mike and his magazine titles over a period of more than 20 years. He always goes out of his way to ensure that my needs and my clients needs are met. He does all he can to offer value for money and is the consummate professional turning out quality publications every month. I am delighted to be associated with him and to write for the magazine on a regular basis.

I have  known Mike Grahamslaw since his embryo entry into the world of magazine publishing at North East Times proceeding through the various stages of his eminent career. I was pleased to write a monthly column for him in Accent for many years and was delighted to accept his invitation to contribute a monthly Comment column in Northern Insight when he established it. N I is very highly regarded as an excellent business magazine and is at the top of the game.

It is always a great pleasure to work with Mike. He encourages freedom in the columns and ensures there is time allowed for  the page to be set up in good time for publication.

Mike is greatly respected in the business and professional world in the north east. This is not only for his wide knowledge and experience of the area and how to promote and encourage development but also for the courteous and responsible way he manages his high quality magazine, for the benefit of all with whom he does business – and always with a smile and a sense of humour.

JAM Marketing has worked with Northern Insight and its subsidiary publications for over 25 years now, on behalf of many of our clients, past and present, as well as ourselves. Put simply, if it didn’t work, we wouldn’t recommend our clients advertise in them. Working with Mike Grahamslaw and his team is, and always has been, a pleasure. They are professional, easy to talk to and nothing is too much trouble for them. We will continue to work with Northern Insight for the foreseeable future and never have any problems recommending their services.
