Business Strategy. Professional Therapy. E-Factor support, and awards, for SME's.

These are the topics covered on today's 'The Business Show' at 10am over on Steel FM.

Tune in this morning as we first speak with Rick Smith, founder and CEO of Forbes Burton Business Strategists. Rick talks us through his early career as a mechanic before becoming involved in running the family business. A flame started to burn. Rick's subsequent life led to the establishment of Forbes Burton, a company now becoming ever more involved in sales of businesses. A great listen with many lessons.

Second up is Angie Graham, founder and CEO of Cudox CIC. Angie re-joins us as she talks us through the travails of the last two years - and how difficult it has been to keep a business going through very challenging economic circumstances. In a real tale of adaptability, Angie talks us how she navigated Cudox through these troubled waters. More great lessons.

We close this week's show with the distinguished Mark Webb, CEO of E-Factor Property Group. Mark is North Lincolnshire's champion for small businesses, and he talks us through the easy-in, easy-out, business units available in Grimsby. Mark also talks about St. James House - it opens NEXT WEEK ! And he also talks about the Great Big Small Awards, featuring as part of Humber Business Week in September. A truly remarkable individual making a huge difference to the SME community.

On air from 10am on Steel FM and, as always, if you wish to be a guest on Steel FM just like Rick, Angie and Mark, and get your message out to over 70,000 listeners each week then please contact Nicola at businessshow@steelfm.org or send us a message and we’ll make it happen for you.
