Calling all our friends north of Norwich, our next Business Growth Club get together in Hellesdon is on Wednesday 12th June – starting at 8 am and we will finish by 10.
This month we’ll look at how to make a service offering look more like a product, thereby making it easier for prospects to understand. This will lead to increased sales – and the good news is that it’s not difficult to do once you know how.
Plus a stack of other useful information I’ve noticed over the last few weeks – a packed agenda as ever then!

We are pleased to invite you to join us at our next Working Together Employment Seminar, in conjunction with Cooper Lomaz Recruitment Limited.
With vacancy numbers in East Anglia doubling in the past 12 months, good candidates are typically securing 2 or 3 job offers before deciding who to work for. Our experts will provide practical and legal advice on how to ensure that your business attracts and retains the best people, and how you keep your employees motivated and engaged. The session will include looking at building a compelling employer brand and developing innovative candidate attraction strategies, as well as providing delegates with tips on improving and avoiding the legal pitfalls of recruitment processes.
The seminar will also include an update on changes to employment law, as well as a review of recent significant employment tribunal decisions.
Howes Percival’s employment law update seminars are presented in a jargon-free way, with plenty of opportunities to ask questions.

We are celebrating 25 years of Creative Arts East! This means 25 years of using the transformative power of the arts to fight rural and social isolation; increase enjoyment, skills, health and wellbeing; broaden horizons and ambitions; and make a positive difference to the lives of people living in rural communities.
To celebrate, we are holding a very special 25th Anniversary Quiz & Chips night on Friday 12th July at Wymondham Central Hall!
We would absolutely love you to bring a team and celebrate with us. As well as the quiz itself, there’ll be a donation bar, raffle, on-the-night games and a fish and chip supper – all proceeds will go towards helping Creative Arts East bring the very best arts and cultural activities to rural and/or under-engaged audiences across Norfolk, Suffolk and the wider eastern region. All funds raised will be doubled £1 for £1 through our special Arts Council England funding. This funding ends at the end of July, so there’s never been a better time to support CAE.
When: Friday 12th July 2019, 7pm
Where: Wymondham Central Hall, Back Lane, Wymondham, NR18 0QB
Parking: Plenty of parking at venue, free after 6pm
Teams: 4-6 people per team.
Included: Fish & chip supper! (Please let us know of dietary requirements when booking)
Plus: Raffle, bar and more! There is no ticket price, but donations upon entry would be greatly appreciated.
Suggested donation: £40 per team (at least £7 per person would help us cover our costs)
Please RSVP soon by emailing zoe@creativeartseast.co.uk with your team so we can reserve your place.
We will also be running a raffle at this event, and would love to have some really fantastic high-quality prizes for our guests to win, and help support local businesses in the process. If you’d like to contribute a raffle prize then do get in touch. Any businesses that contribute will have their logo present at the event, we will have slides as people seat themselves before the event displaying photos, logos and thanks to any contributors. We will also announce their support on social media and at the event in person – turn out for which we expect to be over 100 people.
