London Business Partnership Reviews 29

LBP helped connect me and setup a call with a knowledgeable surveyor for some free advise ,prior to signing a lease on a commercial property. As our business is still in its early stages, we will likely keep working with them to try get as much useful info/contacts related to a London based business. Their staff have been very friendly and helpful!

I have a free call with Richard and it was great!! His honest advice helped me confirm things I was unsure about and has given me the confidence in what I was already doing. Thank you so much, I've been on a few calls with different people for advice and this one was by far the most valuable.

I am so glad I have found this service! I feel confident I am starting strong.

The advice and team were very effective, professional and knowledgeable.

On a recommendation from Bromley Council Paul M is the first person in 5 years that was able to clearly explain how business rates work for our business and how we can properly split the space. Superb knowledge and communication.

Very helpful with my small business needs. Have a solid advice on negotiating and accessing grants.

London Business Partnership were incredibly understanding of our situation and the urgency we faced in a dispute with the Council. They swiftly arranged a consultation with a highly knowledgeable solicitor, who provided us with clear advice and guidance on the right course of action to take. As a small business, it’s reassuring to know that there is such strong support available when needed.

Another productive session, this time with Peter Haycocks who is a Business Coach. Appreciated his understanding of my business and introducing a new perspective by posing questions to help me probe deeper into what I'm doing. Looking forward to the next session once I've completed and integrated the tasks from this session. Highly recommend Peter as I felt quite at ease and he picked up on small points that could make a positive impact.

The London Business Partnership have been a tremendous help to us on more than one occasion now.

As small business owners, approaching a rent review is stressful. The LBP helped us to proactively and successfully negotiate a very favourable rent. Without their feedback I doubt we would have been bold enough to make this approach.

Now, with an option to acquire ownership of our premises, Paddy has brought clarity to the situation, and reassurance that market conditions mean that this is within our reach.

I will be running ideas past him shortly in the hope we can achieve a favourable outcome. We’ve far more confidence that with their assistance this is realistic.

Advice and support of this type can make a huge difference in what are significant moments is a businesses trajectory, and therefore in the stress associated with it.

Many thanks!

Very helpful 1:1 from Paddy, full of common sense. He understood my needs clearly and gave me some very helpful leads and suggestions that I am following up. I shall look out for future webinars and services provided by London Business Partnership. This is exactly what small businesses have needed for a long time. The 1:1 gives me hope that I can find new premises and get back in business soon.

Very effective help from Paddy. Good listening, encouragment and signposting to the relevant services which can help further.

I had a consultation with a member of staff from London Business Partnership about the property needs of my company. It was the second time I was provided their support. The triage meeting was highly effective and tailored to the ad-hoc business property needs of my company. A roadmap/plan of action was drafted on the spot for my consideration and a follow-up was offered if need be in the future. In an era when startup generic resources are plenty available online, having someone to reassure you that you are on track is important. Thank you London Business Partnership for providing this service; it is an excellent support for small business owners.

Thank you to Isaac Adams for inviting me to the online training on supporting business across london, planning your business,It was very detailed and informative,i have gaps missing so this was very good for me to fill the gaps in.Every so often isaac will email me with information on mostly the things i need to know and be part of as i am studying hard on business and it can be tough at times.I am studying at other places too but it helps if i can go over things at times to fill my gaps like i do.He will always offer me advice or put me on the right path that i need to go on.Thank you isaac.

Paddy! Can’t thank you enough, he helped me to understand how commercial lease works, gave me ideas on how to negotiate heads of terms and contract, lots of advice and tips, listening to him for 5 min you would know how experienced and knowledgeable he is. Great asset to LBP. Thanks again Paddy
