21 August 2026 //  by admin

26 May 2026 //  by admin

Over the last few weeks, we’ve been quietly testing something new at Gleave Media and G12 Business Networking. An AI receptionist.

Never Miss Another Call: Introducing AI Receptionist for Veterinary Practices

3 March 2026 //  by admin

In a busy veterinary practice, the phone never stops ringing. Reception teams are juggling appointments, handling anxious pet owners at the desk, processing prescriptions, speaking to suppliers — and in between all of that, trying to answer every incoming call.

When did you last update your business description?

18 February 2026 //  by admin

Most businesses wrote their Google business description years ago. Usually, it happened at the exact same time they first built their online citations – Google Business Profile, directories, local listings, industry platforms – and then it was never touched again. If you’re being honest, there’s a good chance yours falls into one (or more) of …

Why a Perfect 5-Star Google Rating Isn’t Always Ideal

15 January 2026 //  by admin

When managing online reputation, you might hear: “We need more 5‑star reviews on Google!” While high ratings are desirable, a perfect 5.0 can sometimes send the wrong signal — and may even hurt trust, conversions, or visibility. Here’s why businesses should think beyond just the stars. A business with only 5‑star reviews may look less …

Alistair at Gleave was instrumental in setting up our social media accounts for our biotech cosmetics company. This was particularly complicated as we had to unpick our predecessors work. We now have a very slick system in place which paves the way for us to use advanced analytics to track user experience, website performance and other parameters. Thanks to Alistair and the team!

I have been really impressed with Alistair and his company. They are extremely reactive and explain everything in detail. They have been doing everything that was promised originally and so much more. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending them to anyone looking for these services.

We asked Alistair from Gleave media to build us a new website which would enable our business to grow, we required a full e-commerce website that was easy to navigate, visually appealing, loads quickly and has a great customer journey. Our CRM,diary booking system and customer finance calculator all had to be integrated. Everything was completed in a timely manner and Alistair is very responsive to the numerous questions that we had. I would highly recommend Gleave media if you are looking for a new website.
