We’re looking for a Locksmith!

I Joined Essex Business Forum a few months after I started by business and have been a member ever since. In the past six years I have not only obtained quality business leads that have led to me carrying out work for a variety of clients but have also fostered an excellent network of business contacts who I am happy to recommend and do so on a regular basis.

In addition I have a great support network in that the other members are happy to give me advice and guidance when needed and I hope I provide that to them as well.

I cannot think of any downside of being member of this brilliant organisation –except for getting up early every Thursday morning!

Setting up your own business is very different to being employed and I have found the group to be invaluable in terms of support, advice and assisting me to attract new clients.

If you are a new business I strongly recommend you join.

I was introduced to Essex Business Forum by an existing member, and honestly at the time I did not know, nor understand what to expect. 2 years later, I can say EBF is beyond business referrals.

For me, it is about working closely with positive and inspirational external colleagues; and constantly educating each other.

I truly believe EBF has played a huge part in my professional development; and in my presence in the community.

When I first started in business my biggest concern was the ability to get new clients.

I have no doubt that the biggest factor in the success of my business has been joining the group. I cannot recommend it highly enough

As well as providing an important and consistent source of new business, the group is a valuable resource of support and advice which has been vital to the development of our firm.

The trust and respect that builds between members has a direct influence on business growth.
