OK, you might fancy a lovely pair of shoes, a new handbag or a day in the spa, but the effects of those are never going to last a long time. How about adding some business mentoring to your Christmas wish list this year? 

Our UKAWP Business Mentoring Service and newer Business Support Hotline are available to less than 2 year old businesses who need a boost in those delicate and difficult early stages. Whether it’s more one to one help following our training courses on marketing, advice on your first marquee wedding or being able to talk through client and supplier difficulties and issues, one of our UKAWP Directors is available to help with one of the above services.   The annual service is priced at £500 but support is available by the hour at the rate of £60 if you prefer the Business Support Hotline.  For full information take a look here

 Below is what Stacey-Marie Chalk of Cherry Topped Weddings thought:   

 “As a new business and new into the wedding planning industry I wanted to have the support of the mentoring service provided by the UKAWP. With 3 mentoring meetings with Kelly throughout a 12 month period and email and phone support, this provided plenty of time for me to go through all sorts of questions, concerns and ideas with Kelly. It also meant that by spanning it across 12 months your business has the opportunity to grow and change which in itself raises new challenges which Kelly was able to support and guide me through. You can talk openly and honestly in confidence about anything relating to your business, the industry, your experiences with clients and suppliers, ideas for progress and development, the list goes on… I found the whole mentoring programme extremely worthwhile, and great for giving you that little extra confidence boost by knowing that you’re not the only one out there who goes through those sometimes challenging early stages of a business. It was great to look back to the first meeting 12 months ago and see how far I had come too – the year really did fly by without even realising! Thank you Kelly and UKAWP!”

 We hope to be able to help you in 2012.
