Do you dream of starting your own business but have no idea where to begin? Have you just taken the plunge but have no idea how to proceed?

GOOD NEWS – help is at hand.  I now run occasional workshops for budding entrepreneurs. The next one will take place on Tuesday 13th March 2012. 

My workshops are aimed at people who want to start their own business, or who have just started one. They last two hours and cost £50 per head, and are held on weekdays in central London. They provide the ideal opportunity to meet me, to meet each other, and to find inspiration, motivation, ideas, useful resources and practical advice. Numbers are deliberately kept small to make the sessions as useful as possible. To book a place please email me on workshops@rachelbridge.com.

What attendees said about previous workshops:

“Thank you for a very interesting and dynamic evening. I have already recommended your session to another starting entrepreneur. It was great to meet and talk to you and have the opportunity to network and speak to other like-minded people and get inspired.” Natalia Mityaeva

As a result of attending your workshop I have developed an idea which has the potential to make me £100,000 over the next 12 months. So what a bargain at £50.” Lee Wood
