The Bristol Small Business Network
Jo Richings Business Coach

In September 2018, I set up The Bristol Small Business Network FB group. I wanted to create an engaged and positive group of business owners who would support each other, network with each other and buy from each other. I then made a commitment to post a business tip, productivity strategy or mindset resource in the group every day for a year!
Yes, 365 days. 365 tips! I know, I know! What was I thinking? You are already busy I hear you say! Why would you want to do that I hear you ask. These were questions that I asked myself roughly 350 times over the next 364 days! But wow, was it worth it! Less than 2 years later we have a busy, positive group of nearly 3000 business owners. |
We are now on the second time around with the daily blogs. I'm often surprised at how many new (and established) business owners don’t know about some of the great resources available out there to help build their businesses. Or understand how to market themselves properly. Or really get the difference between margin and mark up! And often they don’t know who to ask (as they are already supposed to know!).
As I’ve collected a humongous amount of knowledge over the last 10 years, I thought it only fair that I share it!
I now have fab admin team of 11 lovely business owners to help run the group. We have specific posting days and regular networking threads where you can promote your business for free. We don't allow stand alone posts so the group is not full of spam like most business groups.
One of the best thing about the group besides networking, is that you have access to a huge resource of helpful and knowledgeable experts! If you have any questions about business from improving sales and creating a marketing plan to finding a good accountant - simply post a question and the group will help!
Hope to see you there!
