I knew I had a good business idea in my head but had absolutely no idea how to make it happen…until I met Craig.
Craig has a wealth of knowledge and experience, from finance and accounting, to marketing and legal stuff, and if there is something he doesn’t know, he’ll know someone who does!
Craig offers more than just practical support though; he understands exactly what sort of problems small to medium businesses face, and provides owners with the right motivation and encouragement for building successful and profitable businesses.
“Craig provided me with realistic, practical advice which allowed me to get my business idea off to a promising start. His step-by-step guidance, encouragement and support have motivated me through the more difficult stages of becoming self employed, and his expert knowledge of marketing strategies has developed my potential to challenge my competition.”
When I first thought about starting my business I was worried that I would not be able to understand how to do all the paperwork that was going to be involved. My first meeting with Craig was very helpful indeed and my mind was put at rest straight away. My main worry was the book keeping, which Craig explained to me in a calm and methodical way and which actually made book keeping seem quite easy and straightforward! Craig has taught me how to be organised when it comes to book keeping and now my books are all in order, totally up to date and easy to understand. Book keeping is now easy to me and it is all down to Craig. Thanks Craig!
My name is David Briars and I am a personal trainer and self defence instructor based in St Helens. I went to see Craig just on the off chance that he might be able to help me with some Ideas and information I had about going freelance. The advice and help I’ve been given since then has been amazing. If I’ve got an idea I know that I can go to Craig and he will give me an honest opinion and advice on which way to take it to make the most of it. I even get emails now and again if he finds information that might help me with one of my MANY ideas. I cannot recommend Craig highly enough to anyone who needs help with an idea or with any aspect of their business development
Hi Craig, to be quite honest with you i wouldn’t quite know where to start thanking you as there is so much to thank you for. I came to you with an idea and a couple of months later i am trading. Your expertise and knowledge is priceless. I didn’t know where to start on a business plan and you have guided through the whole process including building and hosting a website. You helped with finding the loan for me which enabled me to commence trading and sorted all my benefit queries. Your proffesionalism is exemplary. Once again, thank you
My name is Tony Bell from Bell Health and Safety Consultants, starting a business as it says, targeting Small, Medium businesses to help,advise and guidance on all health and safety related matters. From our first meeting you have been more than helpful towards the set up of my business, you explain things jargon free and pointed me in the right direction re help for website, business plan, cash flow plans and some basic booking skills, feed back on my business cards which I had amended and guidance with my benefits claim etc. I would not not hesitate in recommending you to anyone who would seek this type of guidance and support in starting a business.
Craig has helped us on more than one occasion. Providing no-nonsense advice and information – he’s a great sounding board for ideas and helps point you in the right direction to move things forward.
He’s very reliable and always does what he says he’s going to do. Would recommend to anyone
I found Craig very helpful because, like me, he’s straight to the point and practical, he speaks a business language that I can easily understand.His help, specially in the area of book keeping, has been extremely valuable for me.He is always at hand to help with enquiries and check things for me, the result has been knowing that I’m doing things right, resulting in peace of mind.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Craig to anyone starting a business.
Regarding setting up my own business as a freelance hair stylist, i was introduced to Craig Lawrenson who guided and assisted me when ever i have needed any advice.
Craig helped me in compiling a business plan for the business,helped me get a grant to help with set up costs for the business. Overall Craig put me in the right direction to run my business as a business should be run, using his experience and knowledge in doing so. Craig has been a massive help and is always available to speak as and when required. Thanks to Craig for the time he has given me in setting the business up and since i started trading.
I wouldnt change it for the world i love being my own boss 🙂
