The web applications and resources we have available to us now make starting a business a much quicker, cheaper and easier process.

I'll start by introducing myself... I'm Mark Williamson and I am the founder and director of Social Meets Business Ltd.

It's been an interesting few weeks! From full time employment to full time mayhem in 11 days.

Anyway, I'm proud to say that SMB is now up and running and in full flow with just the big stack of HMRC booklets on my left to deal with.

With all the uncertainties around starting a new business, there is one thing I am sure of; the world of business and marketing has changed for good. The tools we have available to us now are more effective, more human and above all better value than anything we have seen before.

My next post is going to look into this new world of web and how it helped us to setup this business with the kind of ease, pace and costs (or lack of) that have encouraged a new raft of entrepreneurs. SMB aims to bring this same thinking to our clients.

We're looking forward to bringing some new ideas into some great business and if you have any questions or just want to discuss your situation, give us a shout. 

Regards,

Mark
