"
Recognising the leading position that edie.net maintains within the industry, we've used the website to advertise the Wagtech brand of water testing equipment for a number of years with great success.
edie.net has an excellent Google Page Rank meaning that our position in search engines was largely dictated by the popularity and thus quality of the edie.net website and associated links to our own. It was however, a product placement campaign that we ran on the edie.net home page in which we experienced the most benefit from this site.
The revolving banner meant that a new product launch was recognised by, and generated enquiries from, vast numbers of interested customers; far in advance of what our traditional advertising would have achieved.

"We decided to hold a webinar through EDIE to reach new audiences and take the hassle factor out of the webinar logistics. We were delighted with the response and certainly couldn't have dreamt of having 250 people participate in an 'real' conference or event at our Head Office. That we still had 90% of those people on-line as we closed the final Q&A session, was testament to our going for a webinar with EDIE."

"We decided to try out EDIE.net at an entry level and were really happy with the results. We got some really strong leads from the site, one of which has developed into a fantastic opportunity and lucrative project for us. We are now going to upgrade to include a further 5 pages so we can showcase more services our company has to offer.
Throughout the process we have also experienced great customer service and support from our account manager who has ensured that we make the most of the online opportunities which edie.net provide."

"We've been working with edie.net over the past 12 months to help get the word out about Tetronics and what we do, and we've seen some excellent results from working with them, so we will continue to develop the relationship going forward.
We recently participated in an edie webinar. We were very pleased with the way edie helped us to promote the event, which led to a high number of registrants. The webinar proved an excellent way for us to present our message and we will certainly look at doing more of these with edie.

"Nairn [Nairn Foster, edie Energy sales] and Helen [Helen Simpson, edie production and technical support] have both been a fantastic help in organising getting my company put up on the website. They both have really gone out of their way to assist me and to make sure that we are getting the most usage for our money! They call me back when they say they are going to, go out of their way to email suggestions and use their initiative. It has been an absolute pleasure to deal with both of them and I think they are both a very valuable asset to your company."

"Haigh have been advertising with Edie for many years now and consistently find it excellent value for money and are impressed by quality of both the direct enquiries generated as well as the extra traffic it generates for our site."
Luke Shepherd, Managing Director, The Haigh Engineering Company Limited www.haigh.co.uk
"Why we chose to proceed with advertising through edie.net: First and foremost because
our visibility on search engines,
such as google, has increased significantly.
- We received 5 inquiries the first 3 weeks we advertised through edie.net, and
I believe the number of inquiries will just increase.
- Edie.net has a large and relevant audience to all products that has something to
do with the environment (and probably other products as well)
- Edie.net's employees (especially Mr. Carl Myers) are very helpful and co-operative.
In cases where we did not know what to do /
or had questions of any kind, they gave help to us.
- I can recommend edie.net, without hesitation, to any company that wish to increase
their number of inquiries."
Morten A Larsen, Delitek AS www.delitek.no
"Were getting work from edie. We're sold! We got 2 contracts worth £400,000 from our product articles."
Roy McClements, United Retek
"Just a note to confirm that the Programme Director and I are in agreement that exposure
of our courses and information about the Centre for Environmental Strategy on edie.net is
most helpful. That our details are available world-wide giving potential students access
to our information and training opportunities is very much appreciated and I'm sure we
should have used edie.net earlier than we did. We will certainly be expanding the details
we place with you for an even wider audience. "
Mrs P A Savill, MSc Administrator, Centre for Environmental Strategy, University of Surrey
"Just had a look through the statistics ...and it looks like there is a positive correlation
between signing up for edie and getting internet traffic!! Excellent."
Toby Edmunds, Sales & Marketing Manager, iemtechnologies ltd
"I just wanted to congratulate EDIE on their excellent product. We have received numerous
enquiries as a result of our listings in the contaminated land section, particularly in
connection with our new soil washing plant. All in all it is proving to be excellent value
compared to other media and we will certainly continue to use you."
Guy Pomphrey, UK and Ireland Manager, DEME Environmental Contractors (DEC NV)
"We like edie. We have had a 250,000 euro and 350,000 euro job from new clients. They would
have never found us ,if it was not for edie. We also had an fantastic enquiry from New Zealand
which is at the final stage of discussion and are waiting for a decision."
Nick Carter, Simdean Envirotec Ltd
"Since we started advertising with Edie.net around a year ago we have received a steadily
increasing number of good quality enquiries from businesses of all types from throughout the
UK. Many of these have resulted in us receiving orders we would never have been considered for
before. In August 2005 alone we took orders from Edie.net enquiries with a capital value in
excess of £40,000.00 and without doubt paid for our annual advertising many times over. I
would recommend Edie.net without hesitation (just not to any of our competitors!!)"
Steven J Burnett, M.D. Compact & Bale Ltd, Kent
"I just thought I would send you a quick e-mail to say how delighted we are with making the
decision to enhance our entry on your website. We are receiving a healthy number of enquiries
and the encouraging thing is, they are quality ones."
Caroline Dean, Marketing Manager, Pakawaste Ltd
"EDIE is a useful platform for our e-marketing. The EDIE service is very
professional. It provides Cranfield with the opportunity to present its programmes
on-line and importantly, our leads are managed so that our enquiries' team can
readily follow-up prospects."
Clive Temple, Director of Sales and Marketing, School of Industrial and Manufacturing
Science, Cranfield University
"I would just like to express my thanks and gratitude to the team at Edie
for the efficient and rapid service in getting our company and products onto the
Edie website recently. We have certainly seen an increase in sales leads and our ranking
on the major search engines seems to have benefited since we signed up with you. We will be
making use of your news / product release features in the coming months to launch some
exciting new technology and trust this will be as successful as the category listings
we have benefited from since we registered. As a relatively new company with limited
marketing budget we believe that the Edie site and services is an efficient and cost
effective method of reaching potential clients. Keep up the good work."
Jim Mills, Managing Director, Air Monitors Ltd.
"We are very pleased with the results of our advertising with edie
- this summer we sold a large shredding machine worth around £140,000 as a direct
result of an enquiry from www.edie.net"
David Ingham, Sales Manager, Untec UK ltd
"Since we went live on edie.net we have received over 60 enquiries
from the response form - this in only 4 working days!
Importantly, they have mostly expressed positive interest in specifying or purchasing
Ecosacs, resulting in a quotation strike rate of around 30%. With your news
release on our company yet to be posted we expect an even bigger response.
Naturally, we are very pleased that the option to advertise on edie.net is working
so well and are also impressed with the professional advice given prior to and
since going live and also with the eye-catching quality of our site."
Frazer Walker, Ecosac

professionals"

"The Chartered Institution of Waste Management (CIWM) used the www.edie.net
newsletter for the first time in 2002, and we were delighted with the results.
We have already booked our 2003 advertising, and look forward to working closely
with www.edie.net."
Melanie Phelan, Sales and Marketing Manager, Chartered Institution of Waste Management
"Our edie advert paid dividends. It produced applications from the
kind of high-calibre people we were looking for. Three of our four interviewees
came from edie - and they were the strongest candidates."
