STOURPORT-based Bradley & Associates has assembled a team of specialists to help deliver a series of workshops over the coming months.

They are designed to be entertaining and informative and help new and progressive businesses plan for and execute business growth.

The first one is on Thursday, October 15 at the Lenchford Inn, Shrawley. Topics covered in the workshop will include:

how to create a simple business plan

how to minimise tax liabilities in business

how to use social media effectively as part of the marketing mix for a business

how to make the best use of any networking opportunities

how to give a confident “elevator” pitch about a business

how to evaluate the potential cost-effectiveness of joining a business networking group

Bradley & Associates principal, Robert Bradley, said. “This is an ideal opportunity for fledging businesses to get help with formulating their strategies and marketing plans.

“It does not assume any prior knowledge and will be tailored to the needs of the participants.”

Refreshments and a light lunch are included and participants will have the opportunity to network with other attendees.
