WHAT IS THE GROWTH CONVERSATION?
Through working with thousands of SME’s across all sectors we have identified recurring themes that can either propel a successful business to the next level, or equally act as a barrier to growth.
We have found that the same principles and methods apply to businesses at all stages of their life-cycle from start up to scale-up. Essentially, all businesses who want to achieve sustainable growth
run their business today as if it would be sold tomorrow.
BOOST BUSINESS LANCASHIRE FLYING START PROGRAMME
Considering starting a business? Got a great business idea and need help making it happen? Been trading for less than three years and keen to grow your business?
The fully funded Flying Start Programme helps new businesses in Lancashire to achieve their growth aspirations. Starting a business is incredibly difficult and so is growing it.
Challenges like sales, marketing, finance, business planning and recruitment can all place barriers in front of ambitious businesses.
We have designed a programme of support to equip you with the skills and knowledge not only to launch a successful enterprise but also to teach you the latest business growth and scaling techniques.
You will benefit from a tailored programme of master classes, which have been specifically designed to equip you and your new business with the tools and techniques you need to succeed.
You’ll have a dedicated Boost Advisor working with you throughout your growth journey and access to a range of specialist Growthology online tools helping you to unlock your potential.
We will also invite you to essential growth networking events suited to your business needs and providing a platform to market your services to a network of other new businesses and generate sales opportunities.
We’ve helped more than 1000 new businesses in the last two years to start and grow. Why not start your growth conversation today?
