Revisiting The Creative Tinker, 2 years after it was started

Business has been good.

In two years the experience, self-confidence and presenting skills have really come on

How did he get customers?

BNI was a good decision, local networking – https://bni-lightning.co.uk

Businesses continually need to refresh and update their website

Added maintenance as a product alongside hosting and building websites

Biggest challenges since the beginning

The feeling of losing control was a big issue

Finding and bringing on a new member of staff

Getting clients is the main challenge

Word of mouth then takes over

Parts of the job that he didn’t enjoy

Asking professionals, like an accountant, for help and advice

Any advice he would have given himself if he could go back to the start

Believe in yourself, do what you enjoy, don’t listen to negative comments

If you are young then you can try and fail and then go do something else
