Eaton Gate Associates Ltd

Asset Protection

Many successful companies find themselves with substantial retained earnings.
Of course it is prudent to be capitalised to cushion against the unexpected; it does also mean that these funds are vulnerable to a whole host of external threats, including litigation.
Company Directors have many duties and responsibilities to both shareholders and suppliers – one of which is to protect these funds.
Here at EGA we provide a bespoke strategy that will insulate you against the unexpected, allowing you to plan for the future with more certainty.
Our offering is exclusive; to find out how we can help you develop a solution that is bespoke for, you complete the form below.
There is no cost, or obligation, for an initial conversation.

Antoinette Chappell

ARC Writing and Translation Services

Marketing

As a copy coach and copywriter, I work with entrepreneurs and business owners who need to produce regular, fresh, relevant copy that is clear, succinct and that generates more leads, builds an audience online, markets their products or services and engages with existing customers.
In some cases, I write the content; in others, I coach my clients on how to write copy that resonates with their target audience by developing a targeted copy strategy and plan and establishing the right tone of voice for their ideal clients or multiple ideal client profiles.
I have always been passionate about languages and different cultures. In 2007, after having been a French and Spanish Teacher for two years in a secondary school, I completed a Master’s Degree in Translation and became a freelance translator from Italian, French and Spanish into English.
My translation specialisms include the following fields: financial, annual reports, marketing, general business, websites, contracts, the environment, technical, IT (software/hardware) and pharmaceutical.
My broad range of experience as a translator for over ten years has prepared me well for dealing with industry-specific terminology and finding the right voice for my client's target customers. I now write persuasive, engaging copy that produces tangible results for my clients by converting more leads into sales and building new audiences.

Sue Randall

RANDALL & ASSOCIATES LTD (unregistered)/Former EA to City of London VIPs

All sectors

Former EA/PA to City of London stakeholders, senior management and VIPs across a broad range of sectors for over 40 years (but most recently in finance). On a personal basis I have an interest in trying to make properties more saleable, adding value with low budgets, always helping "hands on" with DIY, and generally trying to improve any property either for family, friends or anyone I am involved or around. At the same time in the last 20 years, I have been involved as a secretary/director of management companies, ensuring leasehold/share of freehold properties are managed fairly and responsibly for all owners (not just the ones with the most equity or history of ownership); fairly dealing with all persons in a caring and compassionate way. All of this interest started at a very young age (as a baby/toddler) as I always helped my parents/family (as a young me) "do up" properties; until sadly particularly, my parents health deteriorated; but this is my foundation and where I started my interest in properties, construction and love of historical buildings.

In addition, the firm also undertakes slope stability analysis, basement impact assessments, building damage assessments, contamination remediation strategies and validation reports, together with preparing earthworks specifications and materials management plans.
