Start Your Business workshops

Alongside our personalised support, we also run 'Start Your Business' workshops. These sessions cut through the jargon and conflicting advice, focusing on what really matters in your first year of trading. You’ll learn the essential steps for building a strong foundation, from meeting legal requirements to reducing risks and setting clear goals for growth.

Our workshops also cover the practical side of running a business - identifying your target customers, exploring funding options, and managing your finances effectively. With simple strategies for pricing, cashflow, and marketing, you’ll gain the clarity and confidence to reach your audience and make those all-important first sales. By the end, you’ll be equipped with both the knowledge and the mindset to take your entrepreneurial adventure forward.

What our clients say

The course today was very helpful and insightful. I went in not sure what to expect but was made to feel welcome and involved. As someone who suffers from disability and anxiety, I can honestly say that this is the calmest experience with new people I have had in MANY years.
C Rooney

After attending the recent workshop, I have acquired substantial insights and knowledge pertinent to start-ups, which I believe will be instrumental in the progression of my entrepreneurial journey. The workshop meticulously highlighted potential challenges and emphasized the best practices in navigating the start-up landscape.

Starting up your own business can be a daunting task - but the two workshops I attended really helped me get motivated and start putting my plans into action.
