I'm thrilled to share that Bearhat Marketing has been chosen as one of the six weekly winners of Small Business Sunday (#SBS) - Theo Paphitis’s initiative spotlighting UK small businesses .
What is #SBS?
Every Sunday evening, small businesses post their elevator pitch on social channels using #SBS, tagging Theo Paphitis. By Monday at 8pm, six winners are handpicked and receive a momentous social media boost – reaching hundreds of thousands of followers across LinkedIn, X, and Instagram .
Why this matters
Huge visibility uplift: Theo’s network spans over 300k followers on LinkedIn and nearly half a million on X . For Bearhat, that means fresh eyes on our brand and services.
Instant credibility: Being an official #SBS winner signals trust, quality, and entrepreneurial drive.
Ongoing support: Winners join an exclusive network, gain access to #SBS events, and connect with other inspiring small businesses .
The Bearhat pitch
In our entry, I said:
“I started Bearhat Marketing because too many brilliant small businesses were stuck in marketing limbo. Doing something, but not seeing results.”
That’s the core of Bearhat – helping SMEs grow without them having to keep guessing and hoping something will work. Or how I like to put it – throwing mud at a wall and hoping it sticks. Some might, but most of it is going on the floor.
What’s next for Bearhat?
We’re going to embrace every new contact and connection this visibility brings.
Continue building the #SBS community alongside other winners.
Double down on delivering value for SMEs and start-ups who need marketing direction but not the agency overhead.
Here’s to a busy, bold quarter ahead!
Finally, a big shout-out to Theo Paphitis and the #SBS team. And a heartfelt thanks to everyone who sent messages of congratulations – your support means the world.
