Director

&lt;p&gt;I'm a &lt;a href='http://www.danmartinuk.com'&gt;freelance content creator and event host&lt;/a&gt; who helps small businesses and the organisations that support them. I have 18 years of experience as a small business journalist having interviewed hundreds of entrepreneurs from billionaires like Sir Richard Branson to the founders behind brand new start-ups. I've worked for a range of leading small business publications and support groups, most recently as head of content at Enterprise Nation where I was responsible for the prolific output of content on the company's blog and social media. I'm based in Bristol where I run and host regular events with the local small business community and have strong connections to major business organisations in the south west region. In total, I've hosted over 50 events; from intimate meet-ups to conferences with an audience of hundreds including events for international brands like Facebook and Xero. I'm also a big fan of podcasts having hosted Enterprise Nation's Small Business Sessions as well as lots of online events including Facebook Live interviews, webinars and three live web chats from inside 10 Downing Street. With my partner, I co-run Lifestyle District, a lifestyle blog focused on culture, art, theatre and photography.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I'm here to help. I'm volunteering free advice calls of up to an hour as part of the Recovery Advice for Business scheme, over the next 6 months. Please get in touch to see how I can help your business.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

Director of Mind Over Money

Build a Financial Plan you can reuse!

A financial plan is one of the first tasks to help build a clear picture of the direction of the business, set goals, and act as a point of reference for stakeholders.

We will meet on several occasions to build a realistic and optimised plan, that will leave you feeling confident about the business financials.

Many of the clients I work with are able to continue using the financial plans we create on their own without my involvement.

Please do get in touch to see how we can work together.

I help founders improve their financial ability and confidence by tackling the blockages that appear when trying to grow. Whether you require a business plan to support your funding application or help managing and understanding the day-to-day finance, I can support you.
