A Helping Hand – from a Business Shepherd The Business Shepherd is a new company with a truly novel approach to business support – they aim to save money by making the minimum amount of changes to the way a company is run and staffed and by utilising existing systems and equipment as far as possible. And to show how this can be done, they have created all the promotional material for their company themselves, including its logo and website, with only basic office software. They also offer a service to people wanting to set up new businesses which is aimed at avoiding the elephant traps that await those venturing into the world of commerce for the first time. The service is personal – the two directors between them have over 40 years of experience in everything from office and corporate administration to creating and maintaining commercially secure websites – and the initial briefing and assessment meeting is free of charge.
