Thinking of starting or just started a business in Suffolk?
The team at MENTA Business support, are delivering support across Suffolk with a new series of coaching and training workshops being offered free of charge. The MENTA training and support is designed around what the user wants, with a key area being business planning and sustainability.
John Neild heads operations at MENTA and said "we believe we have created the most rounded of new business support programmes when the client chooses the elements they want, this may be support in marketing, access to new business finance or they require support with their bookkeeping and TAX"
MENTA are delivering workshops online as well as in locations that include Ipswich, Felixstowe, Haverhill, Bury St Edmunds and Woodbridge - the support is funded via the government levelling up fund and offers those already trading access to a wealth of business experience.
John Neild of MENTA said, "we have stripped back the enrolment process and enabled the clients to decide which subject around their new business they want guidance in"
"A tick box enrolment helps people choose what they need to make their business start well and if the client chooses just one area of new business coaching, they can come back for follow up support as and when they feel they need it."
