• Hi from Surrey

    Hi,

    It’s taken 8 months to buy the business, not helped by the previous owner emigrating to New Zealand half way through the process!!!

    Anyway it’s all ours now so I’ll be on her for hints and tips.

    mod-edit
    please see board rules.

    Hi John.

    So, the feller you bought the business from did a runner a bit swiftly then. Does that tell you something?

    Only joking. Welcome to the forum. 😀

    The other co owner had been working at the company before I got involved, but in answer to your question, business purchased for next to nothing, but the vat man keeps chasing me for a rather large cheque. I too may be moving to New Zealand if we don’t make some money!

    Thanks, not sure at what point saying where you are based constitutes advertising. Yes, we are based south of Guildford just off the A3 near Godalming.

    Hi John, welcome to the forum, yer it’s OK to let people know where you are based, that’s not classed as advertising. Don’t worry the mods will soon edit any post that they feel breaches board rules :lol1:
