1st June - Expanding the business


OK, so it’s a bit premature. All I have done is decide on a name  (if you didn’t know, there is no need to register a name as a sole trader) , buy some cards and get a domain name – surely a bit early for expansion surely? It’s probably more honest to say I expanded the concept. Plan A was (and is) to deliver courses in a pub environment, but many people I discussed this with said words to the effect ‘why don’t you do mentoring as well?’. At first I was reticent – surely millions of people offered this? Having done a lot of searching, I realised that there were a lot of related services out there (many delivered by ‘official’ bodies such as Business Link) and lots of consultancies but very few independents offering what I describe as ‘low-level, personalised advice’.
                                                         
So the BTM now meant Business Teaching & Mentors, rather than Business Training & Management.
