I attended the speed networking today at the Plaza in Braintree. It was well organised, and well worth my time. It's a great way to meet many small business owners.

The Federation of Small Businesses has helped our company out in a multitude of ways. Not only has it enabled us legal advice and guidance when dealing with a client who hadn't paid their invoice, it has also opened a portal of networking groups up and down the country allowing our business more reach.
Further to this it is now enabling our business to give back by way of sponsorships and services. Our business is growing and there is no denying the support the FSB offers in incremental in allowing that to happen.

We met our local membership advisor Jane Martin having attended a networking event. We met for a coffee to discuss the benefits of what the FSB had to offer and we quickly saw that becoming a member for the networking alone was worth our yearly subscription however, Jane didn't want to just sign us up, she wanted to know about where our business was, what goals we had and any blockers we had that were preventing us to move forward.
At the time we had been chasing an unpaid invoice for 4 months and although it wasn't a huge amount for a Small Business it was a lot and the cost of seeking legal help outweighed the option of looking at this. Jane explained about the legal guidance and free documents that the FSB had to offer and within 24 hours of signing up we were able to get access to support and documents, another 48 hours later we had sent a letter and we had been paid the invoice. That invoice paid for our membership alone.
Since then we have worked closely with Jane and Tim Aker the Development Manager. We have attended networking events, been connected with businesses who have supported and grown our business, had a direct connection with local MP's to lobby issues and have utilised the legal support and insurance discounts.
We cannot thank the FSB for all it has done for us in growing our business and supporting our success. I will attribute this down to the incredible support we have in Jane and Tim who truly are assets to organisation.

I initially joined FSB a number of years ago and didn't really make the most of it however I re-joined a couple of years ago now and it's a brilliant resource for businesses across the board in addition to the opportunities to network and collaborate. Excellent value for money!

A Brilliant Experience with FSB's Tim Aker and FSB Kent.
Thank you to FSB Events for an outstanding experience at the recent ‘Budget’ focus group - The best one yet! It was a real privilege to be part of something so impactful.
The event was incredibly well-organised and gave us, as business owners, a genuine platform to share our views. With impressive coverage across social media, radio, and TV, FSB demonstrated why it is the leading business voice in Kent.
This year’s event truly stood out — the energy, engagement, and professionalism were second to none. It’s clear that FSB is deeply committed to amplifying the voices of its members, and I’m proud to have played a small part in it.
Already looking forward to the next one. A huge thank you to the FSB team!

Every visit to an FSB event, I not only make lots of connections which open up collaboration opportunities but I always learn something new, be it a new skill, a social media application or a new idea for my business.
The hosts are always extremely professional whilst remaining accessible and personable, maintaining a balanced business like atmosphere along with a relaxing approach.
Along with the obvious membership benefit's FSB offer it’s the people who run events locally who are most engaging.
Thank you

What a fantastic FSB Bootcamp! Super well organised and enjoyable. I didn't know what to expect but was pleasantly surprised. So much to do, talk about, learn, connect and great food! Thank you very much. I'd love to attend another of your bootcamp in the future if this is the quality!
