How we can help
At the Portobello Business Centre we believe that failing to plan is planning to fail.
To help you to plan properly, we can direct you to one of our business advisers. Our team of professional business advisers (all with hands-on business experience) can guide you through the essential steps to launching your own business.
This is a free service
.
We also have a pool of business consultants with specialist knowledge, ranging from accounting to new technology, who can help you with specific problems.
An essential for any new business is a robust and realistic business plan. Your business adviser will give you all the expert help you need to build it. Your plan will include the following: -
an executive summary
details of your research - product and marketplace
a marketing strategy and plan
an operational (administration) plan
a financial package including cashflow and profit and loss
In compiling the plan you will need to be aware of business practices, legal obligations and tax regimes. Your business adviser can, of course, help with all of these aspects.
Your business adviser may suggest that you consider our
Business Start Up Course
.
Once you have completed your plan, (which you can work on at our Information Technology Centre) you will be ready to move forward. To help you further, we can direct you towards grants and soft loans that are available. Although we cannot guarantee success, we do have a strong record of helping people over more than 20 years!
And you won't be left on your own once you've started up we'll still be here to help you with any problems that you may face as you establish and grow your business. Why not phone or

for an appointment with a business adviser or for a place on a free half day Induction seminar.
