Running a small business can be daunting

We might be great at our own skill but when we set up in business for the first time we need to be conscious that now we are a business owner as well as a Photographer, Jeweller or Life Coach.There are two key aspects to focus on.

Hi Shan (sorry - I odn't know how to do the "a with a hat")!  Anyhoo, I was thinking that you really should come along to a Ladies at E11even meeting some time.  The next Woking meeting is on Thursday, March 24th when I have the (terrifying) pleasure of doing my 10 minutes presentation.  Do get in touch if you'd like to join us and see what we're all about.

Shan,

Likewsie - really enjoyed the chat and will bear you in mind for all sorts of adventures. Re- Your man in Shepperton my daughter who has worked with Radio Jackie and Southern FM in Brighton, presenting Traffic & Travel at high speed - would kill for the opportunity of an internship or apprenticeship in any strand of the creative
industries. You never know - strange things do happen!

Best of Molesey regards
Steve B

Thank you Shan (don't know how to put the umlaut on your name sorry! ). It was so nice of you to drop me back a note. If you are local and want to know a little more about how you can strategise the vmail and other platforms I'd be more than happy to meet up for a coffee locally? Keith Grover is looking at it closely, and I think it's a wonderful product that I use every day to connect and engage with my marketplace. Let me know if you'd like to meet, I'm not too busy at the moment.
Best wishes,
Tessa
