Happy New Year!

I know that "New Year, New You" is a bit of a cliche but it's true for a lot of people who really want to get their business to where they want it to be in 2025 - me included.

So with that in mind, we published the latest issue on 1 January. You can read it here.

As always, there are some great articles including one on the impact of the proposed IHT rules on farmers. This is very topical and Hayley Kingsnorth shows the calculations which makes it easier to understand.

Steer Your Business has a new collaboration for 2025 with Things To Do In. They are a local online business advertising directory aimings to help all businesses get found online.

They achieve this by building each business their own one page website (micro-site). This helps massively with the SEO (search engine optimisation). In other words, getting their business found online organically.

A business that does not have their own website can just use our micro site to direct their customers to. We will have all the info and links to their social media and contact info etc on the micro-site we build them.

The charge is a one off fee of ￡100.00 to build this and they are welcome to add products, services or even a video free of charge ongoing. We also advertise their company on our social media platforms, and link to theirs we also show their business to all our visitors (thousands) weekly. All of the towns and cities link together for maximum exposure of their products or services. They have thousands of page one search terms for businesses that already list on their directories and the SEO is second to none.

We will be focussing on Ashford and more generally, Kent. Any business who signs up will also get a listing on the Steer Your Business directory and either an advert or article in the magazine itself as well so a great package for just ￡49/month with no contract.

We're very exciting about this and feel that it adds to and complements what we are doing already so that all our business get seen by more people and generate more leads and increased cashflow. Who doesn't want that?

Enjoy the latest magazine and please share with anyone you think would benefit from the informative and educational articles that we have in this issue.

Kind regards
