Entrepreneur School is a face to face networking event that combines business networking with business education. So many businesses fail because many Entrepreneurs lack the necessary knowledge and business skills required to help them navigate, at times, perilous and unforgiving journey of being in business. If Entrepreneurs knew what they would have to give up in pursuing their dreams before they started, would they have actually started their business? Entrepreneur School can have an impact on business success rates by providing a unique for Entrepreneurs and business owners to use an extended support network of thousands of like-minded people.
We already have a number of Network members who have put themselves forward to act as an Entrepreneur School Leader and during the next three months we plan to have up to 20 ES locations across the UK with Chelmsford being the ES HQ.
We welcome you to join us at the Entrepreneur School Guildford and experience something fresh and exciting which will add real value to your business.
Event Speaker - Hamish Robertson from Action Coach
Hamish's goal is to help business owners spend less time working IN their business and more time working ON thier business. Hamish can also help you put the fun back into business as all business owners and Entrepreneurs find that it can seem unrewarding and lonely at times when worrying about the day to day running of a business.
Hamish works with you to change all of that to redefine your dreams and vision and put in place the necessary systems, strategies and tactics that will allow you to turn your business into a thriving, successful one.
ActionCoach define successful businesses as:
"A commercial, profitable enterprise that works without you."

Entrepreneur School Leader
With a BSc in Physics from Imperial College, Peter started in Business as a Graduate Engineer, collecting various post-Graduate Certificates and an MSc in his spare time. Peter spent some 37 years in corporate business, spanning most roles from basic Design and Development through to Test, Production, etc, before moving into Systems and Programme Management. The opportunities to travel around the world, supporting Marketing and carrying out contract negotiations, were used to great advantage. Having reached Cabinet level and 4* level contacts, he finally left international corporate business and took the Independent route, achieving the success and the work/leisure balance he wanted, with a Science and Technology Consultancy company.
Separately, the growing Business Consultancy, which he offers in conjunction with Entrepreneur School, is intended to provide support to others, whether via Tuition, CVs, Documentation, ICT and Websites, Assistance to find Investors, Commercial Analysis, Business Planning and Reviews.
Peter is currently working with SMEs to achieve major contracts (in excess of GB£40M) with the Primes; he is also setting up a complete Internet based business package as a Turnkey system for a Farmer who wishes to sell meat products directly to the public, providing 'worthy individuals' with CVs and websites, and still carrying out some Tuition work (the future lies in the Education of the young).
Peter’s hobbies include most Countrysports, including fly-fishing (when he can catch the flies!) and breeding and working his gundogs. His garden is a place of continuous development, and he is now seeking a new house for a development project.

About Entrepreneur School
If you have ever had a vision or a dream to start a business, then you will know only too well that when you first see the vision of what you want to create, you are compelled to act in making your project a reality. If you make mistakes during the research stages, get your company focus wrong or take the wrong advice, then it could seriously damage the chances of your business succeeding. Could there be something out there that might help you get it right from the outset? The answer is, yes, there is - it’s called Entrepreneur School.
Entrepreneur School will be series of face to face networking events held in different town locations across the UK, with the primary aim of helping to improve new business startup success rates as well as improving the ongoing success of existing UK businesses.
We can only get the network to reach a terminal velocity and have the high levels of activity that we require if people go out of their way and participate. Every fire starts with a small flame and this is where we are right now. What we need is a full scale bush fire and then, and only then, will we have achieved what we initially set out to do. We truly believe that the combination of online and face to face networking with Entrepreneur School and Raw Business Magazine will create one of the UK’s most versatile and much needed business support and business growth networks.
We all know that 17 out of 20 businesses fail within the first two years but with the combination that we offer our members, we may just help to change the odds of success.
If you have a dream of going into business and you would like to increase your odds of success then why not join thousands of other Entrepreneurs who are part of the Raw Business Network by registering with us free. You will not be disappointed and who knows together we just might become - United Entrepreneurs!

Raw Business was the brain child of Bradley Chapman who has had many years of business experience and has enjoyed both the ups and downs of being in business. Like many business owners and entrepreneurs, Bradley has seen his fair share of adversity and continues to fight for UK Entrepreneurs and their businesses.
His idea was to create a web site that helped UK Entrepreneurs and business people. The original web site www.millionimpossible.com was created by Entrepreneurs for Entrepreneurs. The business was started from scratch with a limited capital investment but with the dream of creating the UK’s largest Honest Entrepreneur Network. The business has faced massive amounts of adversity like many start-up business.
The website now has thousands of members and has successfully launched Entrepreneur School from their Chelmsford Head Office location.
Raw Business also has a business publishing arm and has now successfully publishes on line and printed editions of their business and entrepreneur magazine titled "Raw Business Magazine" which features interviews with high profile entrepreneurs such as Duncan Bannatyne, Rachel Elnaugh, Doug Richard, Max Clifford and Levi Roots whilst focusing on grass roots businesses and entrepreneurs through topical editorial and it’s regular columnists and contributors who are specialists in their field offering advise and support.
Raw Business has started designing their global website which should be ready for an early 2010 launch with the aim of positively bringing the Global Entrepreneurial Business Community together, engaging International Trading and encouraging World Wide Entrepreneurial Innovation.
The aim of Entrepreneur School is to combine face to face networking within a business training environment so that start-ups and established businesses can gain full and comprehensive knowledge about being in and running a business as well as what it takes to be successful, learning and meeting new contacts that they can utilise along their journey.
The lessons presented at each Entrepreneur School are published on the Raw Business website here and allows both Raw members and the wider business community, access to a library of material which is sure to help them and their business.
