BUSINESS NEWS,
WEEK FROM SEPTEMBER 18
JUNE ROCHE
NEW HITES
NEW business founder June Roche from Hemel Hempstead said she
couldn't have done it without the skilled help, advice and support
she received.
June praised both the Academy of Business Excellence (ABEX)
and the Dacorum Business Network (DBN) to help her business
services company, HITES, get off to a flying start.
June said: "It has been daunting to get all the elements
in place to start HITES but, with the free training and advice
Business Link and ABEX offer, I feel I can overcome all the
usual hurdles faced by a new business. They taught me about
sales and marketing, accounts and where to go for legal and
insurance advice."
After gaining a range of experience organising top executives
and their offices in multinational companies such as BT and
e-commerce firm FreeMarkets, June felt it was time to go it
alone.
Although HITES - Hi-Tech Executive Services - has been running
for less than a month it has already secured some top-notch
clients. The company specialises in business and personal organisation,
project management, training and web design services. June added:
"If your personal or business life is getting in a muddle,
HITES will help you to audit, focus and create your ideal living
or working situation.
"If you have a project you are undertaking but simply don't
have the time to source the suppliers or make and chase the
arrangements, HITES will do it for you."
The company also offers computer training and various others,
both in a classroom format or privately at your home or business.
"Even though I really know my stuff the free advice I received
from DBN and ABEX showed me that this alone was not enough to
start up a new business," June added. "We are very
lucky in Hemel Hempstead to have the ability to tap into a wealth
of resources not offered in other towns. I never thought I would
be running my own business but as I send out my first invoice
on my first day of trading, I thank Dacorum Business Network,
ABEX and the local enterprise agencies for all their help and
support." She also advised anyone thinking of starting
their own business to follow her example and book an appointment
with a Business Link adviser to find out just what help is available.
