Looking for a business to take part in a series of web/paper articles
Posted by tomfromthepost on January 14, 2008
As the enterprise editor of the Birmingham Post, I try to cover as many of the issues relating to startups and small and medium enterprises in the weekly enterprise section of the paper as possible. But I also do case studies of a lot of small businesses in the region.
Now I’m trying to take that one step further, as well as create something that would hopefully be a good read for anyone interested in the problems of starting and running your own business. I’m hoping to find an entrepreneur/just-started business who wants to work with me on a regular series of articles (monthly perhaps) giving a diary of the highs and lows they face running their business.
Obviously monthly (or whatever) updates in the paper can only go into so much detail, so I’m hoping that whoever I might be able to get involved will be keen to run a blog (with me or by themself) to go into more details of the say-to-day problems faced by small business owners in these difficult economic times.
If you know - or if you are - someone who’d be interested in taking part in this, or if you’ve got any comments or suggestions, it’d be great to hear from you, either here, or at my work contact details: tom_scotney@mrn.co.uk, 0121 234 5576/5506
