It may sound like an obvious one, you probably have to do it at work on a regular basis, but how often do you change you personal login details? We recommend changing your passwords around at least every few months. Try not to use personal data such as DOB, try to use different passwords for each account and get creative! Swap letters for numbers, use capitals and break things up with the odd ? or *. We also recommend you always log out of websites rather than just close the page down. It's better to be safe than sorry!
When starting out its easy to fall into the trap of trying to do everything yourself. Its worth thinking of the time you spend on a job, especially one you dont enjoy - maybe time would be better spent on the job you do enjoy and set up business to do.

fruitless. So I truly know the difficulties faced when starting up a business.
I have learnt the hard way and am passionate about ensuring you don’t have to.

your plans and aspirations, we can put together a detailed plan of action, outlining
which areas will be our key focus.

LOCAL
FIRMS
Although
there are plenty of online business directories,
it can sometimes be quite difficult to find LOCAL
companies who are genuinely keen to support you.
For example if you are based in Brighton, it makes
sense to use an accountant, web designer or printer
based in Brighton who is prepared to help small
businesses or new business start ups.

TO KNOW ABOUT STARTING A BUSINESS
In
addition to these local pages, we have also compiled
