People who are open, honest, giving and caring, make good mentors. Those that also run a business and have experiences to share make good business mentors. Welcome to our mentors pages

 
The mentors

 
Our mentors have been carefully selected. We turn down more people than we take on, many of them exceptional people.
 
Our mentors undergo a single days training and nothing more is required because they are offering you the benefit of their experience, which clearly they already know! 
 
Our mentors all run businesses, usually from start-up, so they have the experience that will help you.
 
Our mentors have taken financial risks, as you have to. They have gone through that first hurdle of taking on their first employee. They have learnt to operate within the rules that bind us all, sometimes with no obvious reason. They have lain awake at night worrying about whether their quote will be accepted, or if the machine will start in the morning. They have experienced the thrill when an unexpected order comes in, or the first customer thanks them for a job well done........
These emotions are very important in business, and you will have them. You can share them with one of our mentors as they will understand your concerns and feel your excitement.
 
Business is exciting. That is why we do it. The risks are both worrying and exciting, and when you win it can be overpowering. When you lose you'd better get up and try again.

When a service is free any sensible person would treat it with suspicion. How can something that is free help me? We often say that you get what you pay for, and many business people I know would happily pay more if the service is excellent as that saves time and hassle. It follows that if a service is free it must be useless.
