Latest MENTA LIVE Start-up Reviews:
Just finished my 3 courses on business planning, book keeping and marketing. Such great courses with some really valuable lessons learnt. Great MENTA colleagues to help and support you too. Would make this a number one recommendation for anyone who wants help with starting out......Call them, you won't be disappointed.........Samo Lyttle April 2020
MENTA Workshop Live, a great way to continue to receive business start-up information during the lock-down. Three workshops, group sessions, one about marketing/strategy and branding/logo. Again very well presented and delivered by John followed by course material sent to you. Helpful and insightful information. Booking and information very straight forward, MENTA are simply brilliant. Andrew Burton-Byrd. April 2020
John Clarke and Shaun Lowthorpe hosted the session and it covered everything promised and allowed time for questions specific to each separate business idea. The course was following up quickly by an email from John attaching information and templates discussed during the morning. It gave me plenty to work on whilst waiting for the next two workshops to cover marketing and book-keeping. Sheri Brown April 2020
