It was my Mum and Dads Wedding Anniversary today (55 years), and it’s got me thinking…
Do we make the most of our business anniversaries and of how long we have been running them?
I know that it always fills me with confidence when I see that a business has been established for a long time. Some well known brands certainly have dates to be proud of and they make the most of them don’t they. (Pop over to M&S and you’ll see EST 1884 right there under the logo)
We have lots of new and fairly young businesses with us at the Guild but many of us have been nurturing them like extra children for a high number of years now and it is time that we shouted about that.
So I asked some of our members to tell us how established their businesses were:
