Has your business suffered due to the credit crunch?

It’s not often that I blatently promote something but for once our government has made the right decision to help ailing businesses in the West Midlands in The UK. It is a fact that the West Midlands has suffered more than any other area in the UK and at last this is being addressed. So I am un-ashamedly championing this directive, namely, The Business Recovery Service.
If you are a business in the West Midlands, UK, and you are struggling, The Business Recovery Service will provide a FREE responsive, targeted service to West Midlands small to medium enterprises that can demonstrate they are ‘at risk’ due to the current economic climate.

This dedicated service will ensure that businesses have a strategic business recovery action plan that will initially stabilise the business and stem its losses to ensure its survival. The business can then be introduced back into the mainstream business support.

What does this free programme deliver?

The small to medium enterprise receives up to 10 (ten) days of support to develop a “recovery action plan”.
Thanks to the support of the ERDF and Advantage West Midlands, this support is provided at no-cost to the business.
The support provided can cover both diagnosis of “risk issues” and the implementation of actions to address these risks. There is no strict definition of “at risk” however the following factors are likely to be present;

• Jobs being at risk
• Pressure on bank facilities
• The loss of key customers
• Customer sector vulnerability
• General financial pressures

Who can deliver it?

The programme is delivered by Bird & Hankins Ltd and is being Championed by myself, Pat Sutton.

Can you or your Clients use this programme?

Yes, if you are “at risk” or you have identified an “at risk” client then please contact me directly on patsutton@patsutton.com or telephone me on 07765 111053

ACT NOW BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE – THIS PROGRAM IS FUNDED BY THE UK GOVERNMENT – IT IS FREE TO YOU (I’ll repeat that, it’s FREE to you!)!

  • My quick thoughts

    • "Success - To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived; this is to have succeeded."
