At the heart of DBN is the principle of mutual support—members sharing their unique expertise to help the whole community thrive. We are pleased to announce that for our March networking meeting, we will be joined by two of our own members as guest speakers: Anthony Cunningham (CW Financial Management) and David Hardy (LSM Wealth).
Following David’s previous presentation, which sparked a high level of engagement and a long list of questions, he is returning to the floor. This time, he is joined by Anthony to deliver a concise, 20-minute presentation designed specifically for the sole traders and business owners within our network.
Building a Future Beyond the Daily Grind
As fellow business owners, Anthony and David understand the temptation to focus entirely on the "now." During their session, they will discuss why a structured financial plan is the only way to ensure you aren't working forever, providing a clear path from business growth to personal retirement.
Navigating Tax Breaks and "Easy Wins"
Understanding the fiscal landscape in the UK is essential for protecting your hard-earned revenue. Drawing on their combined experience, Anthony and David will highlight:
Tax Efficiencies: Specific breaks available to the self-employed that are often overlooked.
Easy Wins: Simple financial adjustments that can be implemented immediately for long-term gain.
Expert Insight: How to navigate current regulations to keep more of your business's profits.
Protecting Your Greatest Investment: You
In a network like DBN, we know that our businesses are built on the passion and health of the people behind them. Our guest speakers will discuss the vital importance of personal protection. Ensuring that you are covered against life’s uncertainties is not just a personal precaution; it is a smart business strategy.
