From Employee To Entrepreneur – Start a profitable business

We promise that this webinar is not your regular panel discussion, or a talkfest but a practical session that will enable you to make a very important life decision: Should you start a business or not? And if/when you do, how you ensure you don’t go off track later?

Join ace speakers Steve Ashby (Founder Businessmentals) and Nick Moore (Founder, Up Agency) as they reveal the Top 10 Tips for starting and running a successful business, along with explaining why start-ups fail and how you can avoid the common pitfalls.

The session will also bust some myths.   For example – 80% of entrepreneurs say they have superior service whereas only 8% of their clients agree!

Did you also know that 46% of small businesses fail because of the personal incompetence of the owner? You’ll find out what you need to know to be successful.

This webinar is designed to show you the essentials of becoming an entrepreneur running a profitable business.

A lot of ground will be covered in a short time, so stay awake and stay alert! ?

P.S. – We will also send a digital workbook for you to take notes.
