Female entrepreneurs - the secrets of their success

From their extensive research, Ruth and John also offer insights and examples of what struck them most, including one founder's ability to hold down a corporate post, run a start-up on the side and bring up three young children as a single mother, and many more inspiring stories.

The 52 female entrepreneurs interviewed ranged from 12 years to the mid-sixties, demonstrating that you can start a business at any age and any life stage.

&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;

Andrew has led teams through stressful times, through growth and restructuring. My goal here is to help you to define what is the important stuff, and what is the noise. Defining projects and goals by what you will be judged on, and how you will be seen to deliver, allows you to focus on the quality, not the numbers. Andrew has worked in IT and Banking for 20 years, and has learnt along the way that people will look at your department and team by the output, and not the method. Do something better every day and your clients will notice, and your team will grow in confidence, and follow you. By defining you, and your goals Andrew has successfully turned managers into leaders, defining who you are, what you want and need to be, we can then work on the skills that you need to develop. Teams don’t follow managers, they follow leaders, leaders have defined personal goals, confidence to do what it takes, and use this to define the real goals for the team, and work towards those. Managers follow tasks, leaders follow personal goals - because they know what they want to deliver, they are able to manage and change the world around them, taking what they want, and leaving the rest without the stress from the world.

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Ok so Imagine - a business plan that is more than reactive to the latest Government advice, a plan that involves less restrictions, investment and growth?&amp;nbsp; Are you ready for the end of lock-down?&amp;nbsp; What is the future normal going to look like?&amp;nbsp; If you want to build a plan for your business, for your future, come and have a chat.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
