Welcome! …to the only guide you need to get grounded, confident and ready to start your business

The past year has been an unprecedented challenge for businesses around the world as companies, consumers and economies have been hit hard by the effects of the coronavirus pandemic. Being flexible and adaptable is more important for businesses than ever: the ability to move online has proved vital for many companies, both big and small. Despite the challenges of 2020, there are still opportunities for entrepreneurs to make their mark in the business world. Indeed, there are companies that have thrived during the pandemic, finding ways to take advantage of new commercial opportunities that the situation provided.

For example, the UK startup Stitch & Story – which offers knitting and crochet supplies and tutorials online – had an 800% increase in sales for March 2020 compared to the previous year, as thousands of people became interested in crafting hobbies while spending more time at home in lockdown. If you’ve found a gap in the market and want to turn your business dreams into reality, then this is the place to start. We’ve filled this bookazine with everything you’ll need, from producing your first business plan, raising funds and balancing the books, to creating your company website, mastering social media promotion and much more!
