Starting or growing a business can be exciting as well as daunting. A good Business Mentor can make the difference between success and failure, particularly in the formative stages of the new venture or expansion. Identifying and filling knowledge gaps is essential, as well as developing individuals and teams to provide the business with the expertise to grow in a controlled manner.

The finances of a business are its life blood. The importance of safeguarding them is paramount.

Identifying gaps and weaknesses and providing solutions is part of the process. Fraud, carrying too much stock, poor purchasing procedures, less than robust accounting management are all areas that, if not managed properly, will impact adversely on business performance.

Business Review
