Oslo, 31. januar 2012 – Rådgivnings- og kommunikasjonsselskapet First House fortsetter sin fremgang. I 2011 økte selskapets inntekter med vel 40 prosent og resultatmarginen opprettholdes.

Byråinntekten for 2011 ble litt over 48 millioner kroner, og resultat før skatt endte på vel 9,5 millioner kroner.

-    Vi er meget fornøyd med både veksten og resultatet for 2011. Det bekrefter at vår kompetanse er etterspurt, og at tilfredsheten er stor blant våre kunder, sier partner og daglig leder Per Høiby.

Selskapets samlede driftsinntekter i 2011 økte med 35,8 prosent til 53,9 millioner kroner. Det er en økning på mer enn 14 millioner kroner fra året før. Korrigert for innkjøpte tjenester og varekostnader på 5,8 millioner kroner, endte den totale byråinntekten på 48,0 millioner. Det er en økning på 41,9 prosent fra året før.

-    Den solide veksten reflekterer at våre tjenester er etterspurt, og mangfoldet i vår kundemasse viser at vi treffer bredt. Blant våre oppdragsgivere finnes både store nasjonale og internasjonale foretak og mindre regionale bedrifter. I tillegg har vi oppdrag også for organisasjoner og offentlige virksomheter. Uten høy kvalitet i vår rådgivning og våre leveranser, hadde vi ikke klart å skape disse resultatene i løpet av de to årene som er gått siden oppstarten, sier Høiby.

Resultat før skatt for 2011 ble vel 9,5 millioner kroner, tilsvarende 19,9 prosent av byråinntekten. Dette er en økning på 38,5 prosent fra året før, samtidig som driftsmarginen er opprettholdt på samme, høye nivå.

-    Det gode resultatet er oppnådd gjennom svært dyktige medarbeidere. First House skal utvides med enda flere gode hoder i året som kommer. Vi får mange henvendelser som bekrefter at vi blir sett på som en attraktiv arbeidsplass, og hos oss skal både arbeidsoppgaver og betingelsene for øvrig speile at vi er ledende på vårt felt, sier Høiby.

Selskapet sysselsatte i gjennomsnitt 18,5 årsverk i 2011 mot 13,5 i 2010.

There are a whole host of unique products which are all works of art, each crafted exclusively by hand by Hawaiian artists. They are blessed with the unique ability of creating some of the most exquisite Hawaii Christmas ornaments, beaded coin purses, salt and pepper shakers, kids walk hooks, surfboard wall art and many such products, all carrying the unmistakable stamp of Hawaiian tradition and culture. The products are available on their online stores, which boast of a high level of commitment to customer service and maintaining the high quality of the products along with its uniqueness.

Their hand painted varieties includes the Aloha Spirit Ornament, Banana Hula Girl Ornament, Tropical Fish Ornament painted in water colors, Sea Turtle Ornament, Hawaiian canoe and Rainbow Ornament and Canoe in Old Hawaii Ornament. There are some beautiful collections under the collectible Christmas ornament category.

Inside painting is a unique art which originated somewhere in the early 1800s and has fascinated art collectors due to its distinctive form. A miniature brush is used by the artist to paint the object in minute detail and in the reverse, relying only in the sense of touch. The opaque inside of the bottle blinds the artist to the view of the brush tip, making inside painting a tough art form. Collectible ornaments created by this art form are a huge craze among genuine collectors of ancient art paintings.

Hawaiian Christmas ornaments are painted by highly skilled artists who are experts in the art of creating hand painted ornaments. They start by painting an outline of the design and then slowly fill in the details one by one, starting with the top most layer with the background work getting finished at the very last. The degree of difficulty in mastering this art form can be gauged from the fact that it takes at least two years of intense training to be able to create work of a good quality.

Designs which are intricate in nature such as Maui by Design’s hand painted Christmas ornaments require a higher level of expertise and years of commitment to this form of painting. Such paintings take hours and even many days to create and paint. What’s truly enchanting about these designs is that they are unique in the true sense of the word. No two pieces of art are alike.

At MauibyDesign.com find collectible Christmas ornaments and beautiful Hawaiian gifts like hand-painted Hawaiian Christmas Ornaments that allow you to savor the beauty and joy of the Hawaiian Islands no matter where you are.

Discipline, self-confidence, respect, integrity, teamwork, and responsibility are some of the core principles for personal success. These values, however, are rarely taught to children in schools.

They offer fun and instructional classes for kids. The kid’s program integrates sport and self-defense techniques with conditioning and skill oriented games aimed at improving your child’s coordination, motor skills, agility, and flexibility.

The Gracie Barra Association is a global organization formed by more than 200 BJJ schools. Its mission is to train the body, mind and spirit of its students through Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.

Now you can enroll your children in Jiu-Jitsu classes and get them to learn this martial art and combat sport.

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a martial art and combat sport derived from Japanese martial art of Kodokan Judo that focuses on grappling. It teaches that even a weaker person can successfully defend against a stronger person by using proper techniques. This is not just a system of fighting but involves much more that that. It also teaches the importance of discipline, self confidence, respect, integrity and team work in life.

Montreal BJJ classes not only teach its students the ‘Gentle Art’ but also help them develop important life skills. These classes are designed to teach your kids a complete self defense system and how to intelligently cope with bullying and peer pressure. Montreal Jiu-Jitsu also teaches your kids positive social values and helps them get along with others and treat them respectfully.

Montreal self defense starts with the conditioning of your children. The program then integrates self defense techniques and combat sport with skill oriented games. This helps them improve their motor skills, agility, flexibility, coordination and concentration. The practice of BJJ is not restricted to teach just the self defense system but also emphasizes on individual development. Children are taught to go beyond the competitive realm and develop themselves as individuals.

Montreal kids Jiu-Jitsu classes are organized in the best possible way to facilitate students’ learning processes. They include several different training methods and techniques designed to convert the knowledge of the masters and instructors into knowledge and skills that students can understand.
