GLASSEX 2009 – HELPING TO BUILD BETTER BUSINESS
Visitors and exhibitors attending Glassex 2009 will be given invaluable access to clear, simple and trustworthy advice on how to improve their company’s performance across the board in today’s current climate at the all-new ‘Business Advice Clinic’ feature. Whether just starting up, already running a business, or looking to grow and develop, this clinic has been designed to help businesses achieve their goals, by giving instant access to business-support organizations and experts covering every topic of commerce.
There is little doubt that this is the toughest year most fenestration businesses have ever faced. With fears of a recession growing, not to mention the never ending deluge of stories about rising prices, the credit crunch and low consumer confidence, the time to identify routes of opportunity to sustain business and drive profitability up has never been more prevalent. In tough times cutting back on resources is tempting and almost deemed a necessity under some circumstances to stay afloat, but if this is not looked into properly it will have a detrimental impact on a business’s future.
Glassex 2009 is all about attaining realistic advice and knowledge that can be put into practice instantly to improve business, in all areas. The all-new Business Advice Clinic is geared to do exactly that, by helping visitors grow their businesses through providing resources that can be utilised whenever needed, delivering a comprehensive range of services to support businesses of any size and provide a high level of ‘hands-on’ expertise.
Key topics covered will include: fundamental business skills; managing finances; employment; finding and keeping customers; taxation; environmental legislation; understanding regulations in our sector; IT; health and safety; business growth and much more. A number of small shell scheme stands will be made available to attract relevant exhibitors such as marketing companies, finance specialists and NGO’s to participate in the area.
“This is something totally new to the show, but is also something that is long time overdue for the industry. The clinic will definitely benefit those serious about retaining business throughout the current market climate,” comments Glassex Event Director, Dave Broxton. “2009’s show has been designed to deliver real tangible benefits to all who attend and the introduction of the new Business Advice Clinic will open up great opportunities to help protect, retain and build business for the future of fabricators and installers of any size. Glassex continues to be a great place to do business, not to mention showcasing the latest products and services to help the fenestration industry evolve…and with the introduction of the new zone, visitors will have the opportunity to really turn their respective businesses around and achieve substantial growth.”
