Thursday 13th November - Learning the lessons of the last recession

Whilst the reasons behind it were completely different to today, human nature has varied little since the last recession suffered in the UK. Understanding the impact on small businesses and when and how we eventually came out of it will give you a head-start on your competitors in the months ahead.

Thursday 20th November – 10 reasons why businesses fail

About 20 years ago, a huge research programme analysed thousands of businesses in order to identify the 10 most common root causes of small business failure. The results of this programme effectively gave pro-active accountants and business advisers a checklist of issues to look for in identifying those clients with weaknesses that might cause them to fail. Attending this seminar will help you to identify the challenges that face your own business in the tough times ahead.

Thursday 27th November – Tax Planning’s best kept secret

Did you know research suggests that over 87% of businesses in the UK are not set up in the most tax efficient manner?

"Tax Planning’s Best Kept Secret" will explain to you the savings that can be made by moving your business away from the traditional limited company or self-employed structures. All forums take you through the ideas step by step and our presenters will be happy to answer your questions as and when they arise.

Thursday 4th December – When will it be safe to go back into property?

Back due to popular demand!

This seminar is suitable for those who want to cash in on the slump in property prices and are considering when to make their move.

Representatives from A4G Wealth Management will look at the way that property prices moved during the last recession, examine the finance that is available and compare the commercial and residential markets. They will also comment on investment alternatives to property if you don’t think the time is yet right and also analyse a deal being offered by Barratt Homes to sell properties at discounts of up to 30% on their original price

We are then taking a break from running the seminars over the festive period but we will be advertising our seminars for the new year in a few weeks time.

Places are limited to ten per seminar and will be issued on a first come first served basis so book your place by contacting jenny@a4gsolutions.co.uk
