Business Support
It's not easy running your own business when ultimately, the buck stops with you! It can also be a lonely, isolating and sometimes frustrating place to be.
If you're stuck at a certain turnover (whatever that may be) or you have challenges that you are struggling to overcome, who do you turn to for support?
Having an ear to bend or a shoulder to cry on, someone with an independent, non-biased view could be invaluable to move your business forward.
And it needn't cost the earth to get that person.
So, if you want to find out how an experienced business advisor, mentor and coach can help you capitalise on opportunities and overcome any hurdles you may be facing, then get in touch.
There is no fixed fee, contract, set frequency or length of engagement - everyone is considered on a case-by-case basis to determine what and exactly how much support you need.
A bespoke package can be put together to meet your budget and availability.
Just to let you know:
- This is not training
- No workbooks
- Focus is on your business, in the moment
- Not formulaic - bespoke advice relevant to your business
- No jargon/spiel - straight talking
- Action-based development
- Confidentiality maintained
Since starting my business 18 months or so ago, I have gone from a networking novice to being a solid contributor through meeting and getting to know the wealth of business skills, knowledge and experience of Paul Green and the members of The Business Community. I mainly attend the Wellingborough session, but have plans to spread myself further afield in Northamptonshire during the rest of this year as membership allows this, unlike others.
The format of the meetings is fun, but has meaning ... and you can always be assured a friendly welcome (as I got recently when attending the Daventry session for the first time). I have made loads of good business contacts that I would have only made through The Business Community ... if you are starting or have recently started a business, book yourself on a session and find out for yourself ... breakfast is good too!

This is a small enough networking group to feel like a community but big enough to have a good variety of different business types and sizes. Love the meeting structure (with a difference) which gives the chance to discuss as a whole group and share ideas rather than just speaking to the people sitting next to you. Can't recommend it more highly to anyone running their own business.

I started my own HR business about 5 years ago and have been a member of The Business Community for almost the same length of time. Not only have I gained business from networking with the group but I've also found like-minded and supportive business owners who are always willing to listen and offer their advice. It is great value for money and I'd highly recommend giving it a go.

I have done lots of networking over the years, and I love The Business Community. It hits just the right mix of being structured and organised while still being a friendly and relaxed place to be. The business world would be a lonelier place without it.
