How is this business support different?
This type of business support programme is 100% unique to us. We have developed it in-house over the past 10 years. It is based on years of experience working with SME’s across the UK.
We have a blended approach to helping you. This means that we have a dedicated online platform where participants can access support 24/7. This is a comprehensive eLearning platform that is set up to be easily accessible, yet give detailed support and help. There is no other platform (that we are aware of) that allows participants to build a personalised growth action plan specific to their own business.
We also record all events, virtual and live, (except for networking events) which allows people to access the same information anytime. No-one is left behind.
Our specialist consultants working one2one with a business can be given access to that businesses growth plan (with express permission from the business) to ensure that the time they spend with the business is to solve real challenges, not just to spend the time fact finding.
You have dedicated access to the platform. You can get an up to date snapshot of what is happening, including how many people are involved and you can see how they are interacting. There is even a leaderboard where you can see which businesses are most active.
We specialise in building a community of participants who not only participate but who actively help the other members, building a stronger local business community. We ensure that there is a strong group spirit and get to know the business owners on a personal level too. It is vital that they feel safe and supported in our experienced hands.
Do you give any guarantees?
Yes we do. We stand behind everything we say and agree to. You will recieve reporting (Weekly if you wish) and we only ever accept payment based on our actual results.
Does it work for any business?
Yes it does. We have tested this on nearly every business type out there. Here are some examples.
- Health, Wellness & Fitness
- Professional Services
- Education & Coaching
- Technology and IT
- Construction & Real Estate
- Hospitality & Tourism
- Art, Design & Creatives

What if I'm not good with tech?
Well, we’re not very good with tech either! We’ve had to learn a lot along the way and we’ll show you how to do everything you need. We developed our platform to be easy enough for anyone to use. As long as you can read English, you have everything that you need to complete your personalised Action Growth Plan.
Have you really trained over 15,000 people?
Yes, over 15,000 to date. We have been running business support programmes for the UK government for over 10 years and we help an average of 3-4,000 (and growing) businesses each year. Those people who have gone before you have been our guinea pigs to getting this tool right so that it will work for you out of the box.
For an example of some of our programmes go to
Our job has always been to help people build their businesses, and we want to support more. One of the reasons we built this tool is because we have more people everyday needing in-depth support than we can provide. making our resources more accessible was the best way to help more entrepreneurs like you get results faster.
By the way, we have invested a lot in this course for you. It took us over 3 years to plan, assemble, record, test and build the platform. We’ll also be updating and adding to the tool as things change. That’s why you get lifetime access; so you can always be up to date.
