Free Workshops running in your area

 Are you considering being self employed?

If the answer is yes, then there will be many questions you need answers to… 

One of those questions maybe “What do I do before I start?” 

Starting in business is probably one of the most life changing decisions you will make, you need to plan it fully before you start, and you will need professional guidance and advice to help you make that decision and move forward. 

Why not attend our FREE workshops in your area. 

The whole series of six workshops covering a variety of topics ranging from The Business Plan to Sales and Marketing is designed to support you in your business idea and growth.  You can attend all six workshops or pick the ones you feel are relevant to your needs. For the full timetable of workshops please see attached. As part of this package you have the opportunity to meet with your own Personal Business Adviser. Failure to complete a business plan is a business planned to fail.
