Hi All

I am just in the process of starting our business which should launch in September. I thought there would be more people in the Wales section of this forum.

What business in everyone in? Are you startups or already in active?

We are starting a Wedding and Events Consultancy.

After years in the theatrical industry we are taking the plunge into our own business. Its an exciting time.

Hi Andrea, I'm not from Wales, (although I did live in Cardiff for two years and have a welsh brother in law!) but I thought I'd welcome you to the forum.

You might want to introduce yourself in the general Introductions section also. It must be a very exciting time for you - you're in good company here as the forum is a good place to find information when starting up.

Keep us updated on how your business progresses!

Hi Andrea

Good luck with the business. Can I offer you some help? I recently finished a free seven part course for SMEs called the 20 Business Fundamentals. It is free and looks at a business through the eyes of an entrepreneur.

You can get a copy here www . businessbasicsclub.co.uk (sorry can't do html links yet)

Should help you get started on the right footing. Let me know what you think of it.

Hi Andrea - quick question, do you do photography? Or is it just the organisational aspect of events, etc? Only wondering as I've been looking to potentially shadow a photographer for a while.
