No, it's not the Boots advert nor am I trying out for the Sugar Babes, it was just the tune I had in my head while exhibiting at the What's Stopping You? event held at The Solent Hotel in Fareham and hosted by Business Link. Business Link are, of course, known for their support of small businesses in general and this was no different except that it was completely focused on women. Either encouraging women who may have thought about starting up in business but are unsure of their next steps or where to seek help or helping those women who have taken the plunge to continue to grow and develop their business.
So help is out there and with an event like this, it comes in more ways than one...
Of course, as an exhibitor, it's an opportunity to show case what I do and allow people to 'get to know me' in between downing coffee and pastries in time for the next speaker. But for all of us, whatever stage of business we are at, you can't help but soak in the stimulating, non-threatening and informative environment that an event like this creates. Not only do we all learn something from the agenda put together but there is an obvious wealth of experience surrounding you which you can tap into should you desire.
A humbling experience for me when someone who is still starting out asks you for advice and yet it is me who is all ears when I listening to the experiences of others!
The What's Stopping You? events are being held all over the country - they are free to attend and a wise investment of your time...
