Small Business Saturday Archives

The UK’s most successful small business campaign, Small Business Saturday, has been launched and this year it will be on Saturday 5th December.

In 2014, approximately 16.5 million adults supported at least one small business on Small Business Saturday, with almost two-thirds (64 per cent) of the British people aware of the campaign.

The organisers say…

We want all kinds of small businesses to get involved, so know that whether you are a family business, local shop, online business, wholesaler, business service or small manufacturer, Small Business Saturday is supporting you!

Small Business Saturday UK is a grassroots, non-commercial campaign, which highlights small business success and encourages consumers to ‘shop local’ and support small businesses in their communities. The day itself takes place on the first shopping Saturday in December each year, but the campaign aims to have a lasting impact on small businesses. In 2015 Small Business Saturday will take place on Saturday, December 5th.

As is often the case, the most valuable business relationships are generated by word of mouth. Working as a Director of the Southern Electric Traction Group C.I.C in London, Bicknell Business Advisers Limited were recommended to me by a … More fellow business owner. I am truly grateful for that recommendation. I can honestly say that the guidance and support we have received from the team have been instrumental to our work and we would be in a considerably lesser position without them.
I haven't the words to fully express Bicknell's input, but perhaps the phrase "no question goes unanswered, no effort is spared" best sums up their approach to client support. I would wholeheartedly recommend Steve and his colleagues in any advisory capacity and am delighted that we have found such a professional, efficient and courteous company with which to do business.
