Hi,

A group of us are in the early stages of planning a small business / enterpreneurial enterprise club in SE26. Topics to cover include: Marketing, social media, time management, accounting / financing services, and other related topics of interest. We have secured free meeting space at Ignition Brewery for the trial period.

Would love to hear from others who are interested in joining us and ideas for other topics to cover. Thanks and Merry Christmas everyone!

When I lived in North London there was a small meetup group called “Cocoa Club” designed for entrepreneurs and creatives.

We met every month and after a few drinks and ice-breaker games, there was a focus group session, where individual members of the group would stand up and describe a particular challenge they were facing in their business. They’d talk for five minutes, and then the floor would be opened so the rest of the meet-up group could give them helpful suggestions.

The moderator noted the suggestions on a flip chart, and the presenter took the flip chart sheet home with them.

Simple idea but worked really well and was very helpful to me when I was creating a startup at the time.

Best of luck with Enterprise Club, @ljones427 :+1:

Happy to help with this aspect.

I would be interested in the first 30 minutes, but then I need to run to collect kids from school…

We need help with social media…

Looking forward to meeting you all on Friday!

Thought you might find this useful - I’m running some free training for small businesses and charities on cyber/online security on 19th Feb. In association with Lewisham Local.

Here’s the link to the booking (its free but spots are limited). Feel free to ask me questions about it either here or on Friday at the meetup.

I have just sent out an email this morning so if you haven’t received it please let me know! https://www.facebook.com/groups/2279512015654258/about/

Does not look like- can you please add me with mail joanna@detangledadmin.com

Also, could the meetings be at lunch time by any chance? I have to collect kids hence leave at 14.45 latest…

I am sure that there are more people with kids who would love to join you, but have to be parents as well.

Kind regards,

Joanna
