The Small Business Sessions (S5E8): How great advice can power your business's success
)
Posted: Wed 4th Aug 2021
It's time for episode eight in series five of the Small Business Sessions, Enterprise Nation's podcast sponsored by Starling Bank.
On this week's podcast, we're covering our favourite subject: business advice. Research shows that business owners who seek help grow their companies faster than those who don't. But with so much advice out there, it can be hard to know who to turn to for assistance.
As you'll know if you're an entrepreneur, you have a lot of plates to spin, so when should you seek advice and ask for help from others? And how do you go about picking the advisers to use?
Joining journalist Dan Martin to discuss all that are two brilliant members of the Enterprise Nation community:
Emma Mills-Sheffield from Mindsetup, who advises business owners on how to become more efficient, productive and resilient.
Toby McCartney, founder of MacRebur, a hugely successful brand that turns non-recyclable waste plastics into materials to use as roads and car parks. He's also the author of Business ReLOVEution: A Mindset Paradigm for the Modern Entrepreneur. Throughout his business journey, Toby has taken on lots of advice, including from Sir Richard Branson. Listen to hear what Sir Richard told him!
