Unfortunately local construction and infrastructure projects are usually out of your control. While they often bring community benefits, they can also have a significant impact on your business.
The secret to surviving and keeping your customers during construction works is to make sure you are prepared, and to have some clever marketing ideas up your sleeve.
Presented by a trusted adviser from the Small Business Development Corporation, this workshop will take you through how to prepare for each stage, from pre-construction to after the project is complete. We’ll provide plenty of practical ideas, helpful checklists and tools, plus you’ll learn what other communities and businesses have done to survive and thrive during what potentially could be a difficult time. You’ll also be able to download a handy project survival planner to help you prepare your business.
This event is free, but places are limited so bookings are essential.
