Workshop

Event description

Patrick will explore current challenges for the business premises and the impact it might have on business performance. It is run as a ‘live’ event for up to 10 delegates and equips business owners and Directors with confidence to identify all the issues and challenges they have, both with their current property as well as any future premises they need to be considering.

What did people think?

I found your property workshop extremely helpful with lots of useful and unthought of advice. I have my notes ready for when we begin the search for our next premises – which will be sooner than I would have planned thanks to Patrick - The Paperback Shop.

I have to say thanks so much for your advice and I’m keen and ready to make the plunge now - Whittals
