Mind Your Own Business (MYOB), the events programme that aims to disseminate pragmatic advice and useful information to small and micro business owners, have teamed up with organisers of the Liverpool Loves Business festival for our latest offering.
Next Thursday, August 6th, MYOB in association with Growth Accelerator and The North West Fund will host a Business Clinic, which will form part of the make-up of the Liverpool Loves Business programme.
Experts from the professional services, financial and digital marketing sectors will be available to offer delegates up to 15 minutes of free, unbiased advice on things that could affect their business and its development. The aim is to help aspiring entrepreneurs and business owners to address the practical and financial implications of starting or growing a business and arm them with applied ideas, that are easy to implement and could make a real and lasting difference.
Representatives from a range of professional organisations will be on hand to offer guidance on things like accessing funding, managing risk and acquiring property; to planning for growth, recruiting and managing staff, brand awareness and marketing.
Businesses on board with the Business Clinic include:
• Benchmark Business Solutions, business development coaching and advice across a broad range of sectors
• Click Consult, award-winning SEO and PPC agency
• CrowdBoarders, social network dedicated to crowdfunding projects, ideas and initiatives
• FW Capital, fund management company providing tailored commercial investments to businesses across the North East and North West

Those businesses will be in a reserved area of the Business Big Top throughout the allocated 2 hour spot, with many on hand throughout the day with a view to engaging and helping as many businesses as they can. Jennie Lewis, organiser of the MYOB events programme and facilitator of the Liverpool Loves Business Clinic, will be on hand to steer people in the right direction on the day.
