New support for small businesses in Ealing

Ealing Trades Online

Are you based in Acton, Ealing, Greenford, Hanwell, Northolt, Perivale, Southall or somewhere else in the borough of Ealing?

Are you a sole trader or small business with less than 250 members of staff?

Ealing Council has commissioned SaveTheHighStreet.org and Upskill Digital to deliver a unique programme of free ‘digital’ support for you.

Together we can help you improve your online presence, build a website, save time through digital tools, grow your audience on social media, run a crowdfunding campaign, produce engaging video content, offer your customers local delivery, defend against cyber-crime, gain a higher ranking in Google, sell through online marketplaces and much more.

“The guidance, support and information are great – all tailored for the right size of ‘small’ business which is really helpful. I’ve always wanted to have a detailed action plan for my business but never found the time to do it before.”

Stone Mini Market, Leytonstone

“This provided a lot of value for me and my business. I would highly recommend the programme to any business in need of support to help grow and rebuild their business.”

Saks Hair and Beauty, Hounslow

“I really felt it helped me see the potential going forward and to try and make the general running my business easier. I have a wedding dress business and it’s been very difficult financially and emotionally. My Success Manager was a huge support.”

Suzanne Harrington Bride, Walthamstow

“The Programme has been very good. The Jo platform gave me a lot of weekly ideas that I wouldn’t have even considered before, this was very useful and reassuring. I would definitely recommend this programme to any business in need of help and support.”

Not Just Travel, Hemel Hempstead

Since starting my online business last August sales have been low. Honestly speaking, my business is starting to take shape now that I have a better understanding how to manage things. For any business looking for inspiration may I strongly recommend Jo and the expert knowledge provided by their success managers.

Sports4Sure, Feltham

“It was a really good opportunity for me to re-evaluate my business model. Look at new ideas, come up to speed with projects I had in the background and had not actioned. I really enjoyed the weekly interaction.”

Market Trader, Wood Street Market
