Can't find a price anywhere though.

[Karl Wheeler]

Hi Alan
It was £170 for the year.

[Karl Wheeler]

Hi Alan
Look at www.fsb.org.uk. you will find the prices on here. They are based on how many employees you have.

Regards
Karl

[Alan Rowley]

Thanks Karl. Not sure whether it's what we need, but I'll see what they have to say.

[Karl Wheeler]

Hi Alan
Some of the benefits attracted me i.e free legal advice, discount of insurances, free banking etc at a minimal cost

Karl

[Alan Rowley]

We've got free banking anyway (Alliance & Leicester), but free legal advice might come in handy in the future, and I'm always interested in discounts.

 

[Karl Wheeler]

Hi Alan
We are all attracted by discounts  How are you finding business?

[steve doyle]

Hi Karl,

Still in our first year of our business. We've had some ups and downs, as we all do, but I'm glad I took the step to set up my own business. I'll never go back to working for someone else again.

Been a member of Fed of Small Business for at least 12 years now,
They do a very good Newsletter, part of which keeps you updated with recent legislation type of things - what you may normally miss.
Free legal advice - needed this seriously couple of years ago (wonky worker). There wasa dedicated solicitor appointed to me that I could ring and ask for advice (whats the next step, can I do this or that etc).
Coop Bank are there main sponsors so free banking with them. I was a Coop banker before they became sponsors and was paying bank charges. Phoned Coop Bank up - gave them membership details and free banking set up.
Local area meeting (not into that) supposedly good for networking.
Many othe rthings too.
Cost me about £80 per year, but does depend on no of employees etc

we are members to think it costs us about £170.00 a year great value.

free legal advice talk direct with a legal expert.

free contracts loads and loads of stuff its been well worth it for us.

would recommend to any small company employing STAFF
