Yup… we’re definitely real people…with all of the strife and trauma that seems to accompany normal life,
our aim is to try to provide some reliable information for you …contact us and we WILL get back to you.
My name is Pete Bumstead and you may already have had the dubious pleasure of my company on the videos we are publishing…. if not follow this link Red Rocket Marketing or visit our YouTube channel here and look at the videos….
Josh and Alan have their own short story to tell you so I’ll get on with telling mine. I’m 54 (sorry 55 now!) and I also left school at age 15 with no qualifications, but I had always known that I would join the army… this I did and spent three years learning a trade in electronics. I then went on to serve a further three years including time in N. Ireland and a glorious year in Cyprus… and loved every minute (well, nearly …. the hangovers were a bit of a nightmare!)
I came out and joined the civvie street ‘rat race’! I have spent the rest of my career working my way through the manufacturing industry ranks to achieve Production Director & Ops Director status in two or three major companies… with the cars and salary etc… that’s all well and good but longer hours, harder work and constantly more pressure.
I have also had a few ‘stabs’ at doing my own thing, including an online shop… the competition is equally as fierce as on the high street!
I’ve always had an interest in IT since the days of the Sinclair ZX81 & Spectrum (does anyone remember them?)… I bought my first PC in 1983… £5k for an IBM 8086, green screen, 640kb of RAM and a 10Mb hard-drive … and you trying telling the youngsters these days…!!! Ever since I have been involved in driving IT in business and using computers at home for teaching myself as much as I can learn and game playing!!
Following a series of discussions with my brother late last year, I started to ‘see’ what the net marketing thing is really about… so we’ve spent a while researching and planning and this is us… we’re here and here to stay… welcome to “Red Rocket Marketing”!
Pete
