If you enjoy dealing with rude salespeople this is the show for you...

Rude, confrontational and unprofessional aptly describes Gary who contacted me regarding our business possibly exhibiting. In over 20 years of exhibiting, I've never experienced such rude emails and attitude. Take your budget elsewhere is my advice there are plenty of professionally run events in the UK, no one needs to deal with this.

A productive and enjoyable local business show

It was great to be back at the Grow Your Business Show 2021 and re-connect in person with micro, SME and large businesses. A packed agenda with seminars, networking and high calibre panel discussions along with a steady footfall of delegates made this a productive and enjoyable event all round for us. Already looking forward to next year!

First GYBS but not the last!

This was not just my first attendance at the GYBS but my first live event as an exhibitor since starting my Travel business!

I made some great new contacts - both new customers and business associates - and Fran & Ryan were so helpful and encouraging ... I'll be back next year!

2nd time exhibitor & delighted with the results

We have just exhibited at the show for the 2nd time and were delighted it was even better than the first (which we thought would be hard to beat). We have formed many new relationships through our work at the GYBS and gained several new, regular customers. We would highly recommend anyone in business in the area attend, if not exhibit. It's a must!

Second time showing....

This is our second time of showing and it hasn't disappointed yet. There are bigger and more complex shows out there but these are always out of our reach from a cost and commitment perspective. The "Grow your Business Show" is perfect for small business's as it provides access to other local small business's at a cost effective rate and only needs a day of your time. They also provide training and advice for newbies which is useful.

First show I've done

First show I've done, but was a great day. The atmosphere was brilliant. It would have been good to see a few more delegates, but very understandable given we're only just coming out of covid measures.

Beverley Simpkins Counselling Service

Whether you have been in business for a while or are just starting out this show is a must for your diary! I attended last year and had a really successful day in terms of developing my business and also had a great evening at the races after the show. I will definitely be going back again in September. Well done to the organisers of this fabulous, informative event.

Invest wisely when growing

Growing your business requires investing wisely to expand your network and sales funnel. Francesca and her team organised a splendid event packed with everything you need from an exhibition. I would highly recommend this event to any business.

I have worked with Francesca through Grow Your Business and Hayes Financial Planning

I have worked with Francesca through her ongoing work through 'Grow Your Business' through the last year and I have been very pleased and impressed. The 2019 event was extremely well run and communicated and Francesca and her team provide excellent support and enthusiasm to all in both a professional and friendly manner. I look forward working with her again in the future.

This was my first business expo so I…

This was my first business expo so I was unsure what to expect. I honestly couldn’t recommend it highly enough. The show was extremely well run and it seemed incredibly organised. Everyone was very friendly and inviting and made it a thoroughly enjoyable, yet beneficial day out. Will definitely be attending the next!

Highly recommended

I cannot recommend the Grow your Business Show enough, from start to finish nothing was too much trouble for Ryan and Fran, well run with a great mix of exhibitors, made some good connections. Will definitely be spreading the word! Can't wait for the next one!

Excellent show - will definitely exhibit again!

Thought the show was brilliantly organised by Fran and Ryan, with a impressive array of businesses exhibiting at the perfect venue. Footfall of visitors was constant and the interesting seminars, key note speakers and valuable networking opportunities made the day unique and memorable. Really enjoyed the pre event networking too, offering the chance to meet other exhibitors before the show and information about the best way to exhibit for return of investment. Will definitely exhibit at the next one and look forward to it!

Excellent show.

“I visited the show and found it to be very productive for me and my business, I met lots of connections during the speed networking sessions and also highly motivated by the Women’s power panel which I thoroughly enjoyed! Great event and will certainly be returning”

Brilliant show, can't wait for the next one

Brilliant show - I was really impressed with the number and quality of exhibitors, loads of useful information and I made some great contacts. The seminars were also very good (and packed!). I especially loved the women's power panel, and the speed networking event was awesome! Such an innovative way to boost my network in a short space of time. Flawlessly organised event in a beautiful venue, this is exactly what Surrey needs. Can't wait to go back this year!

Brilliant & Productive Show!

I exhibited at the Grow Your Business Show with my property company LDG. Being our first business show, we were unsure of what to expect.
From the outset, Ryan & Fran were communicative and accommodating. The found the show to be very well organised and all ran smoothly.
Like all of these networking events, you get out what you put in and Grow Your Business Show creates a fantastic platform for you to do this. Highly recommend.
