Lancashire‐based IT company J700 Group has received a business boost from Retail Entrepreneur Theo Paphitis.

Last week, Jonathan and Deon Cundliffe, owners of J700 Group, tweeted Theo about their business during ‘Small Business Sunday’ and was one of six weekly winners to gain a retweet by Theo to his near half a million Twitter followers.

The weekly initiative, set up by Theo in 2010, now has over 3,000 #SBS winners and supports small businesses in the UK.

Business and retail entrepreneur and self-confessed Shopkeeper, Theo re‐tweeted J700 Group’s message to his almost 500,000 followers and as a result. They are also profiled on the #SBS website (www.theopaphitissbs.com) which is exclusive to all Small Business Sunday winners.

Jonathan and Deon said: ”2022 has been a year of growth for us as we’ve sought new avenues for networking and business partnerships. We’ve been following Theo and the SBS community for some time and decided this was the year we wanted to join the crew. Being a member of the group means we get to connect with amazing businesses across the country, share ideas and get a better understanding of what companies are looking for from their IT partners in 2022.

"It’s our goal to be Lancashire's most accessible, personal and responsive IT company and being a part of a community of businesses with similarly ambitious growth aspirations is a great step towards that goal.”

Small business champion and Ryman Stationery, Robert Dyas and Boux Avenue Chairman, Theo Paphitis, said: “We are thrilled to welcome new #SBS members every week and highlight just how important it is to support our small businesses here in the UK.

"My vision is that everyone who has ever won an #SBS re-tweet from me becomes part of a friendly club; like-minded individuals who can share successes and learnings. The website will also give a valuable profile to the winners chosen and I wish J700 Group every success.”

Anyone looking for a re‐tweet from Theo should tweet him about their business on Sunday between 5 PM and 7.30 PM and include the hashtag #SBS. Six lucky businesses are re‐tweeted every Monday at 8 PM and then invited to enter their profile on the new website, attend the annual #SBS networking event and take advantage of the networking opportunities.
