Keeping track of everything that you need to do in your business is difficult. But there are some basics, like getting consent from people to use their data.
New customers... where can you find them? Using social media and other digital methods to find your future customers has it’s fair share of risks and issues - privacy being a good one to start with.
Ok, so the logo needs a redesign and registering because it matches someone else. The website has 4 fonts on each page, not consistent style and appalling icons. Never mind, that never bothers anyone?! What can you learn from Sydeline?
What happens when one company uses the designs of a product that is properly protected? What happens if you have intellectual property which is not properly protected?
Every growing organisation needs to recruit at some point. To many, this is a foreign experience with pitfalls and dangers, some of which do not raise their head until long after the interviews are over. Recruitment Consultant Oliver Watson and Employment Solicitor Donna Negus join Russell to discuss some of the issues in recruitment and offer some sound advice to those who are considering adding more people to their business.
Getting into the premises is proving… expensive and difficult. Some bad decisions has Jakob bailing out Zelda again. In response, Russell speaks to Dave Moore in the Enterprise Space for Advanced Manufacturing, in Cornwall.
It's easy to be relaxed about privacy in business dealings in this supposedly transparent and open world. Should Jakob and Zelda be worried about Zelda's dad knowing the inner workings of Sydeline? How important is confidentiality in business?
Investor Jakob wants to help, and has the money… but what will he get in return? Then there is the financial planning – who are you going to call?
Having selected and shared her new company name, an overlap with another business forces Zelda to make some changes. Some of the practicalities of set up a new venture start to emerge.
Diving into launching the business, by starting in partial competition with her father, Zelda considers some brave steps. However, striking up a business relationship with Jakob means having to make some sacrifices.
Mike Saville and Russell Cosway from Gydeline introduce the first episode of the Blue Sky Stinking podcast and discuss topics raised, including, good reasons for starting a business, getting sound advice and benefiting from mentoring and coaching.
