Business adviser offers free guidance to new businesses in Bradford

Bradford Metro Bank will host the city’s Local Start-Up Business Adviser Katrina Moody at its Market Street Store on the afternoon of Wednesday June 7th from 1pm – 4pm.

Any Bradford business less than three years old is welcome to meet Katrina who can provide practical support, as well as advice and guidance to any start-up business from any sector, including social enterprises, cooperatives and businesses selling directly to consumers.

As an independent adviser, she can also help individuals with an idea for a new business or support growth for existing businesses, including business planning, marketing, and financial management.

There were over three quarters of a million new companies created in the UK last year – the second highest number on record. That’s more than one company every minute. However start-ups are vulnerable and whilst just over nine out of ten survive the first year (92%), just over a third make it to year five and beyond.

“Anyone is welcome to come along for free advice and support about starting or managing a new business,” explains Bradford Metro Bank’s Local Business Manager Lizzie Jowett. “Whilst in store, if you have not yet opened a business account, this can be done in store in under two hours, with your internet banking set-up the same day and your debit card printed in store.’’

To guarantee time with Katrina at this complimentary event please reserve your spot here.
