Josh runs two local businesses, and he gave the room a real insight into both:

🏗️ Built By Cornerstone, building and construction work you can trust
builtbycornerstone.co.uk

🐀 Cornerstone Pest Control, fast, professional pest control for homes and businesses
cornerstonepestcontrol.co.uk

Thank you Josh for sharing your story and telling us exactly who makes a good referral for you. If you know a homeowner planning building work, or anyone dealing with a pest problem, Josh is the person to call. 🤝

You weren’t hired to “deal with people issues.”

But somehow… that’s half your job now.

You’re the MD / office manager / ops lead / right-hand to the founder.

Keeping everything moving and in between invoices, suppliers and the day job you’re also handling awkward conversations, second-guessing policies, hoping you’re doing things right (and legally sound) and managing tensions no one else wants to touch.

It’s a lot. And it’s not what you signed up for.

This is exactly where Our HR People come in.

When Richard shared their approach, one thing stood out - HR shouldn’t feel like the brakes on your business. Done well, it’s what helps your people, and your business, move forward.

For businesses without an in-house HR function, that means:

👉 ongoing, practical support

👉 clear guidance so you’re not second-guessing decisions

👉 someone in your corner who helps your team perform

And when conflict arises that is only getting worse?

Mediation.

Mediation is a focused, informal process that gets underneath the issue, resets the dynamic, and gets your team moving again - all in one day.

If you’re the one holding all of this together behind the scenes, you don’t have to keep figuring it out alone, or pay a fortune to get the right support.

Reach out to Richard, Our HR People - West Sussex, to find out more.

There once was an accountant near Gatwick,
Whose year-end was busy… quite manic.
But come May each year,
The leads disappear,
Till BNI made things less sporadic.

Busy seasons are great.
But consistent business? Even better.

That’s what BNI is built for - not just meetings, but the relationships and 1-2-1s that keep opportunities flowing all year round.

If your business feels a bit “March heavy, May quiet”…
come and see how we do things differently.
Visitors are always welcome, find out more via link in comments.

If you’re a homeowner, landlord, or buying property in the next 6–12 months, this is worth knowing.

Last week in our BNI meeting, Michael Brooker of Mandalay Financial LTD delivered his member presentation, and it reminded everyone why the right mortgage broker makes such a difference.

Mike isn’t just someone who arranges mortgages.

He actively monitors the market and renegotiates mortgage offers throughout the process to make sure his clients get the best deal possible.

In the last year alone, this approach has helped his clients save over ÂŁ100,000.

Recently a member asked Mike about a headline in The Guardian:

“Average UK mortgage rate tops 5% as lenders scurry to reprice loans amid Middle East crisis.”

So we asked him, is this something people should be worried about?

Mike explained "that while the average rate has technically moved above 5%, averages can be misleading.

No one actually pays the “average” rate.

Your rate depends on your personal circumstances, risk profile, and the lenders available to you at the time."

Which is why having someone who understands the market and stays close to it matters so much.

Headlines can make things sound dramatic, but the right advice helps you see the real picture.

If you’re reviewing your mortgage, buying a property, or simply want to understand your options better, Mike is always happy to talk things through. Get in touch via [email protected]

Sunday evening for a small business owner is just Monday morning’s planning meeting… held inside your own head.

You’re technically relaxing.

But your brain is running through a list that looks something like this…

• Did I reply to that email?
• I need to follow up with that client.
• Where is the next piece of work coming from?
• I should probably post on LinkedIn.
• Did I send that invoice?

Running a business is brilliant.
But switching off completely… that’s another skill entirely.

One of the things we see every week in our BNI chapter is a room full of people who understand exactly that feeling.

Business owners who share ideas, open doors, send referrals and support each other to grow.

Because building a business is challenging enough, you shouldn’t have to do it alone.

If your Sunday brain is already planning the week ahead, why not join us on Tuesday.
