🎄Can you believe it’s Christmas next week? As we’re gearing up for a new year, Team Smarta has been reflecting on what we’ve achieved in 2024. It's been a privilege to support over 1,000 entrepreneurs and small businesses - from solopreneurs to companies with over 200 employees. We hope 2024 was a great year for you and your business, and 2025 is even better! ✨

🌟 If you are a small business owner (anywhere in the UK) I would appreciate it if you could take 5 minutes to complete our end of year survey. We supported over 15,000 startups, while delivering the Start Up Loans programme between 2012-2023, but we are now shaping new products and services for more established companies. Unless the new services add genuine value to your business we aren't interested in delivering them. We've never been about making a quick buck, and we never will be. As a little thankyou, we will draw some names out of the hat. 3 x £50 Amazon vouchers (a perfect Christmas gift I would say!), and a free session with one of our coaches or consultants. All participants will receive a free report with the survey findings. I hope you have a restful time over the festive period 🎄🎅 Please share.
