  • Now is the time …

    It’s official, the end of Spring is imminent here in the UK. Where did that go? In turn, I’m now wondering how I haven’t managed to plant next season’s veg? The spuds, carrots, and greens I promised last year aren’t in the ground yet. I now beginning to feel a little left behind … although…

  • Happiness 365!

    Like most everyone, I appreciate Christmas, it’s a break for me. The deeper meaning for some, and the time with family is welcome. Although for me, the knee-jerk giving, together with the binge consumerism brings disappointment.

  • Help me, help you!

    Without question, the biggest obstacle to new business progress is overcoming the lack of confidence. Who can blame us? I hear you say.  After all, these past few years have been tough for many, especially those working for themselves … by themselves. Navigating an uncertain, fast-changing business landscape calls for a special kind of fortitude. Would you be surprised when I…

  • Being a habit

    Most of you know that I love my networking. It’s not the fact that I have found a modicum of success through direct business either. All my contacts know precisely what I’m good at although the fact is … not everyone is in the marketplace for my particular services, all of the time. This is…

  • No, I’m not telling …

    I’m not going to tell you how to run your business. I’m going to try and help you realise your goals and make business more enjoyable. Here are four questions to ask yourself that may help you: Do I have direction? Who (or what) is your audience … Is the business visible (bizable?) Am I…

  • Learn and move on

    As business owners we understand that tough times can beset the best intentions. We’ve all been there, haven’t we? We’re trying to stick to the plan, the strategy is in place and suddenly … it all goes pear-shaped. Why? It may be because of market conditions, budget cuts, a rise in operating costs, mortgage rates,…
