Small Businesses: What Could You Do To Be More Sustainable In 2020?

Posted on by Emma Reed
*Collaborative Post

It’s time to think about how you’ll hold your own as the market grows more competitive. It’s time to think about what will happen as the economy grows more uncertain with the looming issue of Brexit (whether you voted for it or not, there’s no denying that it will have long term economic repercussions including the possibility of a recession). But perhaps most importantly of all, it means doing your part to ensure that your business leads the charge for sustainability and ecological awareness.

Posted on by Emma Reed

*Collaborative Post

There are a range of reasons as to why you might throw an internal business event. Perhaps you’re running your first award show to try and congratulate the excellent workers in your business? Perhaps you wish to have a great party to help everyone wind down at the end of the year? Maybe you wish to celebrate a business milestone, or maybe you wish to present your business at a trade show? Running an event or business presentation in style can be well worth it because it helps you pop out. More and more businesses are clamouring to show they have some form of corporate personality, be that through insightful or funny comments on Twitter, carefully ‘approachable’ marketing copy or a range of other carefully calculated considerations.
