Building Entrepreneurs
Are you thinking of setting up a new business but don't know where to start? Have you been made redundant and are thinking of investing your payout in a new business? Contact us first! NatWest Bank carried our research recently which found that in the first 12 months 80% of new businesses fail, however, when start-up businesses participate in a supported programme this statistic is turned on its head as over 80% succeed.

Business Clinics and One to One Business Mentoring
“At Wealden District Council (WDC) we recognize the importance of independent business advice whenever you have important business decisions to make. Of course you should consult your accountant, bank and solicitor but there is nothing like talking to other business people who have been there and got the T-shirt!”
Roy Galley Cabinet Member for Regeneration and Economic Development
Wealden District Council
This enlightened approach to local enterprise has led Wealden, Lewes and Eastbourne Councils to provide funded, independent support and advice from experienced business people. Mail [email protected] to mentor you whether you are planning to start a new business or you are an existing business with a difficult decision to make.
When you own and run your own SME it can be lonely at the top so whether you want to expand or downsize, sell your business or merge with a competitor, taking independent advice is vital. Business advice can come with a hefty price tag (check the cost of your monthly accountant's or solicitor's fee) but the WDC funded advice is free of charge and completely unbiased.
WDC recognizes the value of independent, expert business advice so they are providing one to one mentoring support, start-up workshops and business clinics to help you run your business.
To book a 'one to one' session at a Business Cinic or to book a Start-Up Workshop , call Edeal on 01323 641144 or email us here.
