The programme of five one-day workshops will help your business to:

Retain and maximise the current customer base
-
Understand how to recruit and develop the best team
-
Develop and/or refine a sales and marketing plan

The Lincolnshire workshops will be held at the Norton Lodge, Norton Disney as well as other locations in the East Midlands. Each business can send up to two managers to attend the workshops.

AA Fleet Assist Name Change
Please note that the Business Saving AA Fleet Assist has changed its name as feedback suggested that the Fleet Assist name was perhaps misleading - it is not just for companies with large fleets but any number of vehicles. Please click here for more information on Chamber Roadside Assistance.
Business Support Events to Start Early in Lincolnshire
The regional Business Link service will begin another series of its successful local business support events with two events in Lincolnshire in January 2010.
The increasingly popular Is It For You? start-up workshops will be taking place at The Bentley Hotel in Lincoln on Wednesday the 13th of January, and at The Festival Hall in Market Rasen on Thursday the 21st of January and all those that are looking to explore new ventures and further their business ideas in 2010 are encouraged to attend.
The events are free and a team of start-up advisers will be on hand to talk through potential business ideas. Successful local entrepreneurs who have recently undergone the start-up process will also be there to share their own experiences of what it really takes to set up in business.
Demand for the events is likely to be high and places are strictly limited, so call Business Link on 0845 058 6644 and secure your place now.
