Make Contacts At Free Sessions
New networking opportunities nationwide are on offer for small businesses during the coming months as Barclays launches a series of free workshops.
Eighteen events will be held offering practical advice, helping firms look at ways they can improve their bottom line and discover new profit-making strategies.
Run by business expert Robert Craven, there will also be the chance to devleop individual action plans and learn about the tactics necessary to make them happen.
John Davis, Barclays marketing director for local business, explained: "Research tells us that traditional breeding grounds for doing deals, such as the pub or golf club, are no longer relevant for small firms. Owners prefer organised events allowing them to meet others and discuss face-to-face and where they have a chance to learn essential skills."
The workshops kick off in Stock-on-Trent on September 11.
