I had originally approached a Mentor who signed up, but their own business took off rapidly so they could not dedicate any...

    Are the Dragons or even Sir Alan Sugar listening to small businesses?

    Excellent statement, I agree with you, however, when I mentioned Dragons and Sir Alan, they have created a forum or been invited to represent us to pass on our opinions to the Government so they can not "prop up" but help to make things easier.

    Are the Dragons or even Sir Alan Sugar listening to small businesses?

Sadly, for Sir Alan, he has been chosen (by some means) to represent us, I would like to ask who he talks to and...

    Are the Dragons or even Sir Alan Sugar listening to small businesses?

    Agreed, however, he has been chosen by the PM to represent the views and thoughts of the Small Business owner, so that would mean, he needs to be current with ideas, thoughts and opinions. What's the point of having someone representing people who is out of touch (if he is, no opinion on this...

    Beware of factoring - Things they don't tell you at Bibbys

    Does this not apply to most things in life, sadly? It would help a lot of small companies grow, if some of their customers praised the hard work they do. It may also be worth while if the company tries to communicate with their customers to get some reviews in writing, by offering comps...

    How to choose an accountant

    Hi, have not read all of the posts, so forgive me if this sounds like repeating what others are saying. However, I recently had to go through this myself and in order to get the best out of things and keep costs down, I created a structure as follows: Junior person to do basic data entry...

    Beware of factoring - Things they don't tell you at Bibbys

    I have factored with some smaller Companies in the past, such as Potential Finance and then moving on to the larger brands such as Lloyds TSB, RBS Invoice Finance and have heard about others. As they often say "One shoe size does not fit all!" (well someone has somewhere said that :) )...
