Quality Fashion Advice from the Experts!

With a combined experience that spans 86 years the three fashion experts are here to help you with specific advice from the way you work with other people to finance, outsourcing and production.  

“This is such an important part of our journey with our business and I am so glad we found Fashion Enter. The advice is always honest and pertinent and so far we have saved valuable time and money on sourcing costs and also FashionCapital encourages NOT to spend money on copious amounts of patterns. It’s heartwarming that in these difficult times we have Fashion Enter behind us who cares and are there for us.” Michaela Jedinak from Joy of Clothes

However, advice can be expensive and that’s why the three fashion experts have combined together to create a free webinar session on 17^th September at 7pm entitled “The Shoebox Start-up”. This is a unique opportunity to ask the questions that will help you with your business. This free one hour webinar will allow you to network with like-minded individuals – a problem shared is most certainly a problem halved.  

Hosted by Annabel Kaye (Director of Irenicon Ltd) and Jenny Tolmie, (Partner of Griffin Stone Moscrop & Co.) with Jenny Holloway CEO Fashion Enter they will be talking about simple but highly effective ways to get yourself on track with sound financial advice and employment law that is mandatory! Prevention is always better than cure. 

There will be free downloads available during each webinar and we will deal with live questions and chat ‘real time to delegates – this is not going to be a broadcast. Replays will be available for a limited period only. 

The shoebox start-up – 17 September @ 7pm and the three webinar experts are there for YOU;

Jenny Tolmie (GSM) will be explaining how to let the tax man know what you are up to, and giving you some simple tips on how to keep accurate records that are HMRC compliant – this will stop those awful unexpected bills or tax issues. 

“GSM have acted for Harvie & Hudson since 1949, working with 3 generations of the families.

Annabel Kaye will be discussing about working with people you don’t pay and what are the legal complications here! From friends, to ‘unpaid interns’ and volunteers these people do have rights that you may not know about! Annabel will ensure you know how to avoid feuds, arguments and claims for minimum wages from people you didn’t even realise that you have to pay legally! 

“Annabel delivered an extremely educational and entertaining talk in respect of the contractual relationships a start up business needs to consider – whether it’s taking on part-time or full-time employees, freelancers, suppliers, family members or volunteers. Her workshop looked at startup cultures and what start up businesses need to think about when planning for growth.” Lorraine Turton FInstSMM, Entrepreneur, Business Development Consultant, Small Business Champion & Founder of the Greenwich Enterprise Club
