How would my business fare if I take a month’s holiday in Europe during the busiest season?  Often the cost to the business of the owner being absent for any length of time is significant.  Whilst we usually wouldn’t suggest that a business owner be hands-off his or her own business, it is a worthy goal to be able to liberate yourself from your business from time to time confident that the wheels will not fall off.  If liberating yourself from the necessity to always be within close reach of your business is on your bucket list, this Business Owners Forum event will be worthwhile to attend.

We have assembled a quality panel to discuss this challenge.  We are confident that you will walk away from this event with some additional insight and ideas.

This Business Owners Forum event will be held at the BNZ Partners facility on Constellation Drive, North Harbour at 5:30pm for a 5:40pm start on Thursday 15 October – and will run through to 7:00pm.

As always for Business Owners Forum events, this session will be free of charge and completely free of sales pitches from the supporters or the panellists. And there will be pizza, beer and wine to lubricate quality discussion.

Business Owners Forums are held monthly – alternating between Whangarei, Albany and Newmarket venues. Although no two Business Owners Forum events are the same, this event will be more or less repeated in Newmarket on Wednesday 18 November.

Buying your competitor’s business is often a valid and attractive growth strategy.  But the process is fraught with pitfalls – and often the biggest challenge is funding the acquisition.  How do you make this work – and how do you understand early if it is unlikely to work, thus avoiding wastage of time, energy and money?  If growth by acquisition is potentially on your radar, this Business Owners Forum event will be worthwhile to attend.
