don't know where to go from here - 03-01-2007, 09:12 PM

I have been running Pampered for around 18 months. I have a ton of ideas on how to make the business succeed and grow.

I have a small shop, an ebay store, run out of shop stalls, party plan and a website all of the branches of the business provide an income but none are consistant and the problem is that I'm just keeping my head above water. I can see by my figures that the business is slowly growing but Its not growing quickly enough for me. All my assets are tied up and it runs on a hand to mouth basis. I know the potential is there for things to be very good, and I have a business plan made up when it reaches the next stage, I just think that I might be retired before it gets to that point.


I would be happy to involve a partner, but don't really know how to go about that with out approaching expensive business angel networks any suggestions would be appreciated

Couple of options to explore.

Invite a mentor from your local business link to give your business a once over and they should be able to help you see the best way to take the business forward. The service should be free.

If you are local to south east I would consider doing the business link thing AND actually helping you do it (Which BL no longer do) If this is of interest leave a message at www.profitxchange.co.uk in the confidential section.
