The Sheffield problem

Being nearby isn’t the same as being chosen.

First year is when students lock in their habits. They choose their go-to cafe, bar, gym and barber then, and those favourites can stay with them for 3-4 years of uni.

Your business might be just around the corner. But to become their first choice, you need to be part of the conversations they are already having.
