Business health checks – for free

By Steven Howard, Business Doctors.

Using my experience of helping companies - from SMEs to FTSE 100 firms - to grow and reach their potential, I have set up a consultancy dedicated to serve businesses across Lancaster, South Lakes and the Yorkshire Dales.

I am a former regional director of a European spirits distributor, with a strong commercial background and global expertise.

After taking voluntary redundancy at 55, and snubbing head-hunters’ calls, I decided to buy a franchise and head north.

I turned to national conglomerate Business Doctors, with a 10,000-strong client base, as well as values and aspirations to match my own.

There’s no hard-sell, prescriptive, one-size-fits-all programme. This is about working on the ground, being hands-on and totally empathetic. I want people to feel comfortable, confident with who I am and what I want to help them achieve.

I am helping business owners and staff ‘break through the ceiling’ to the next level, by:

Identifying and achieving realistic growth Solving stressful situations Creating effective structures for development I have found people extremely receptive to what I have to offer and will be able to tap into a real need from local entrepreneurs and family businesses for hands on support with business growth.

How about a Free Business Health Check?

Whether you’re starting-up, or well-established, I can help develop that outstanding idea or project and find a completely new and efficient way of doing things. I’ll be running free events at Hawkshead Brewery, Staveley, January 23rd and February 1st. I look forward to seeing you there!
