Phillip Bain, who co-founded the highly successful mobile shredding company Shredbank in 2007 just after the collapse of Northern Rock, will give a talk on how to survive and thrive in a recession.
The seminar will focus on key areas that all businesses need to address in order to survive through difficult economic times.
The seminar is highly interactive, informative and practical.
Philip Bain and his business partner James Carson established ShredBank just after the collapse of Northern Rock and the beginning of one of the deepest recessions since the 1930’s. ShredBank entered a document shredding market dominated by well established multi-nationals and a deteriorating economic climate. Despite this, under Philip’s commercial leadership ShredBank has become a fast growing multi-award winning company that has experienced high double digit growth year on year and disproved the notion that success in a recession is impossible.
Having recently won Entrepreneur of the Year 2010 and Young Businessperson of the Year 2011, we are delighted that Philip has agreed to share his thoughts and experiences on what it takes to start-up, grow and succeed in tough financial times. He will reflect on the importance of marketing, selling, innovation and having a business model that works.
Phillip will donate his seminar fee to the Prince's Trust 'Million Makers' corporate competition.
Shredbank will donate their time and delegate packs for this seminar as part of their fundraising efforts in support of the Prince's Trust.
