Did you know?
In 2019, there were 5.82 million small businesses in the UK1. These accounted for 60% of the employment and around half of the turnover in the UK private sector2. Sadly, 60% of those new businesses will go-under within three years. 20% will close their doors within just 12 months3.
The top 3 reasons for this lack of success are4:
- lack of cash
- no plan
- lack of clear value proposition

The Business Community has been extremely helpful to my business. The meetings are well run - they have a well-defined structure, but have a good mix of formality and informality. I enjoy meeting other members, have made some good connections, got great business advice from Paul and the wider group and, last but not least, gained work whose value is several times the cost of membership.

The networking sessions are always very lively and enjoyable, and I have found many of the additional training sessions invaluable. By far the biggest benefit for me however, is the feeling of community. I really enjoy coming together with others in similar situations and having the opportunity to broaden my business network. Most importantly, no matter how much life gets in the way of me being able to attend meetings, I’ve always been warmly welcomed back into the fold and almost forgotten I was ever away!

One of my favourite networking events. Good people, fun but structured meetings with useful connections being made, 1-2-1s, and a member presentation. No pressure and no scoresheets, but of course you get out what you put in and it’s all about relationship building. The additional member benefits over and above the networking itself is where the gold is.

We have been members for several years and find each meeting informative, friendly yet professional. There are lots of different meetings you can visit within Northamptonshire and beyond so great value for money. Well worth a visit. Would definitely recommend The Business Community.
