Welcome to the ‘Business Spotlight’ for North & East Yorkshire, brought to you by ActionCOACH Harrogate, Scarborough & Beverley.

 

What is Business Spotlight?



Through our short video interviews we shine a spotlight on the amazing SME’s who help power our country’s economy. From solopreneurs to CEO’s, we talk to a wide variety of Yorkshire based business owners about what it’s really like to run their companies. With the highs and the lows that running a business brings, there is an abundance of knowledge and inspiration to be gained from sharing these experiences.

 

Why do we do it? 

 

We think local business owners deserve to have time in the spotlight. We know you work tirelessly to build your brands and grow your customer base. We believe it it’s important to acknowledge their hard work and dedication. After all, when we promote local business growth we are building and strengthening our communities.
