    Maternity leave whilst in a business partnership

    Hi, an update really. It's been such a tricky situation! My partner is peeved (understandably) but has a few people to approach to see if they want to take over. I told her that I'll leave the partnership after I've put the next magazine together and handed over to a new person, but she's not...

    Maternity leave whilst in a business partnership

    Hi, thankyou for your replies so far. It is a partnership rather than a limited company. I quite like the idea of shares, would that mean getting the business valued and then splitting the shares with someone buying in? Or a legal document dividing percentages of the business. Sorry if that...

    Maternity leave whilst in a business partnership

    Hi, I started a business 6 months ago with a friend as my business partner. I became pregnant, but as I work from home decided that it was feasible to continue my role with help from my husband without the need to take any time off. However I went for my 20 week scan yesterday and discovered I...

    Extra phone line/number for working from home

    Hi all, I'm setting up a business from home and I am reluctant to use my home number as my business contact number. My current landline/broadband provider is Talk Talk. I've heard that BT can provide an extra number on the same line with a different ring tone so that you can differentiate...
