Pulse Student Network expansion
Serial entrepreneur Daniel Hill has proved he has his finger on the pulse of the student market. Founder of Pulse Student Network Ltd, Daniel has made his name by providing a string of products and services aimed at a young, hip crowd.
Pulse offers everything from high-end customised clothing to event management, international travel to student properties and has recently opened another office to cater for the student market in Derby. With the support of the Hive and the facilities available, Pulse has grown from a small project in 2009 to a profitable company trading internationally with a turnover of over £150,000.
Passion for enterprise
During his studies at Nottingham Business School, Daniel decided to specialise in strategic entrepreneurship, which is his passion. "The fact that Nottingham Trent University also has its own enterprise development centre sealed my decision to come to Nottingham, and in fact I joined The Hive the week after I graduated. It's played a big part in supporting me through all my major business decisions", said Daniel.
"The Hive has supported the Pulse Student Clothing department to allow it to grow to the stage where we now supply the student union online shops at Nottingham Trent University, the University of Oxford, and London Metropolitan University. There is also a Pulse Student Clothing franchise which has recently launched in Russia."
Secrets to business success
Daniel's ultimate aim is to build Pulse into a national student brand offering an even broader range of products and services. "We've based the business on quality and innovation but we feel the main attraction is the personal touch we can offer and we will retain that ethos as we grow", says Daniel.
Pulse Student Network is always on the lookout for like-minded companies and individuals for collaboration within the sector. If you would like to discuss working with Pulse in any capacity please contact Daniel Hill or visit their website.
