Business Mentoring

Well I've just got back from my first business mentoring session with Paul Maboutt of www.jennings.co.uk and it was an unbelievably positive and helpful session. While I've got a range of business experience and have done a little studying, a fresh perspective and some local knowledge was great for prioritising next steps. 

Paul and his partner run a number of business parks around Oxfordshire offering services from stand alone premisses to quick get out managed offices and home support packages. As they have an interest in growing small businesses they spend some of their time helping start ups with some initial help and advice. 

So what did we cover:
  • Business Planning
  • Pricing
  • Market Research
  • Support Organisations
  • Selling - Solution Selling
  • Networking Events
I'll cover these topics in some detail in later posts.
