Business Advice
One of the major obstacles in the decision to
set up a small business and become self-employed is a fear of the
hurdles and regulations associated with "going it alone", as well
as a worry about the viability of the venture.
These need not be something to be concerned
about if they are tackled in an organised way and if advice and
guidance is sought from people who are experienced and trained to
help.
Business Link Yorkshire offer practical advice for businesses
starting up or expanding. The
Business Link website offers
a comprehensive guide to your business from financial assistance
available to employing and training staff to sales and marketing
advice.
