Welcome to Business in Berkshire
Good Morning

Welcome to 2007. I've been doing some scribbling over the Christmas period... not too much, couple of hours a day at most, just needed to keep my hand in and prepare for 2007. Most of these thoughts I will be sharing with you over the next few weeks as we lay down our plans for 2007... once stated, it becomes reality!
The Jon's Journal piece below came to me this morning and will probably be the foundations of our Media Pack for 2007, chopping 16 pages down to 3 or 4. Not bad for 30 minutes work but how much thinking went into it?
Best of luck in 2007, or should I say, best of clear thinking in making your plans!

Regards,
Jon Davey

Why You Really do Need a Business Coach

Every great performer, whether an elite athlete, business legend, or performing superstar, is surrounded by coaches and advisors. The role of the Business Coach is to help business owners improve their business through guiding strategies, support and encouragement. They typically help the owners of small and medium sized businesses with their sales, marketing, management, team building and so much more. Just like a sporting coach, a business coach will make you focus on the game.

Government Told to Buy Better to Save Taxpayers Money

As the Christmas shopping period draws to a close the Federation of Small Businesses (FSB) has called on all levels of government in the UK to remember that better buying will also save money for the taxpayer. The public sector spends £120 billion per year and better value for that money can be achieved by involving more small businesses in public procurement.

Start by setting yourself 5 simple goals that you will aim to achieve by this time next year. Here’s a few ideas to get you started:
