StartUp Saturday launches: Start your business in a day

Spread the love

 

Enterprise Nation have announced the national expansion of its successful StartUp Saturday one day workshops to help thousands more people turn an idea into a business and become their own boss!

For budding entrepreneurs who haven’t been able to attend the monthly workshops in London, StartUp Saturday classes are now coming to a town near you with Birmingham and Morecambe as the first two launch locations.

The ‘start your own business in a day’ workshops will be hosted and delivered by talented and entrepreneurial StartUp Saturday franchisees. Until now, the one-day workshop that offers everything you need to know about starting a business has been delivered by Enterprise Nation founder, Emma Jones, in London. Jones says: “Based on feedback from small business owners around the country, we are spreading our wings and will be coming to locations nationwide.”

The first StartUp Saturday franchisee is Enterprise Nation community member Rickie Josen.

Rickie Josen will be launching her first session at Hotel La Tour, Birmingham on Saturday 22nd September. Rickie has been self employed since 2004 and has run two different businesses during this time, with her last few years being focused on organising events and training alongside writing.

“My motto is that knowledge is gained to be shared and I love passing on knowledge, especially when it means people can get to the information sooner than I did when starting out in business. I would have loved to have attended a StartUp Saturday when I was starting out back in 2004!” says Rickie

“Enterprise Nation has been a place for me to turn since it launched and over the years I’ve enjoyed contributing by writing about my love of being self-employed. It’s the first place I suggest new businesses turn so it makes perfect sense for me to be a StartUp Saturday franchisee!”

Following a successful launch of workshops in Birmingham, StartUp Saturday will continue to expand to new locations with a vision of having weekly workshops up and down the UK!
