We love networking… but sometimes you just need to get some work done! 😂

Yesterday was 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗖𝗼-𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗗𝗮𝘆…

Working for yourself is brilliant, isn’t it? It brings you freedom, flexibility and how can I not mention, being your own boss?

But there is a downside…It can get a bit lonely.

Sometimes you just need to get out of the house, have a chat with someone who isn’t the cat, bounce an idea around, or simply sit somewhere where other people are getting on with their work too.

And that’s exactly why we’ve combined the two with our In Business networking and co-working days.

It’s not just about having somewhere to work, it’s about the people around you.

Who knows where a quick coffee and a chat can lead to.

A conversation can turn into an introduction and an introduction can turn into a collaboration.

And sometimes, having someone say “How’s that thing you were working on going?” is all the accountability you need to actually get it done!

Come along, do the networking bit, meet some friendly faces, make some connections…

…and then stay and get some work done but without the forced conversations and sitting on your own all day.

Just good people, great conversations and a place to get some work done. ☕💻

Because we’ve always believed that business is better when you’re In Business together.

And maybe that’s what co-working is really all about. ❤️

So, happy International Co-Working Day for yesterday!

If you haven’t tried co-working before, perhaps it’s time to give it a go at our upcoming events in September.

If you need details, just ask 🙂

Another week and another member!

We'd like to welcome Mel Stead to We Are In Business. Mel offers a genuinely personal travel-planning service, creating exceptional holidays without the stress of organising everything yourself.

She takes time to understand what matters to each client before designing a trip around them. From luxury escapes, cruises and honeymoons to safaris, escorted adventures, golf trips and complex multi-centre itineraries, every detail is carefully considered and personally managed from the first conversation until they return home.

Whether you already know exactly where you want to go or simply need inspiration, Mel will turn your ideas into a seamless, memorable holiday that feels completely your own.

Real connections create real results.

One of our members recently shared how a single warm introduction at our event changed the trajectory of their business.

They met someone who had a client in the workwear industry looking for graphic design support. That first conversation led to a meeting… which led to design work… which led to website support… and now, 12 months later, they’re delivering SEO, marketing strategy, social media marketing and email marketing for the same client.

All from one introduction.

This is why we do what we do, creating spaces where genuine relationships turn into long‑term opportunities.

If you’re looking for a networking community where conversations actually lead somewhere, you’re in the right place.

You've spent years building your business... but have you thought about what comes next?

For many business owners, retirement isn't simply about stopping work. It's about stepping away from something that's been a huge part of your identity, purpose, and daily life.

After years of making decisions, solving problems, and leading others, the question isn't just "Can I afford to retire?" It's often "What will I retire to?"

That's why we're inviting you to our 𝗟𝗶𝗻𝗸-𝗨𝗽 & 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝘁𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 session on Tuesday 28th July, 9.25am.

In this session, Sue O'Boyle from PRO-DEVELOPMENT (UK) LIMITED explores how business owners can navigate the transition into retirement or whatever your next chapter looks like, with confidence, purpose, and fulfilment.

Sue will cover:-

✨ The key challenges and opportunities that come with stepping away from your business.

✨ How your business has shaped your identity and how to redefine it beyond ownership.

✨ The skills, mindset, and self-awareness that help create a meaningful and rewarding next chapter.

Retirement doesn't have to mean slowing down. It can be the beginning of a new adventure, a fresh purpose, or the opportunity to finally focus on the things you've always wanted to do.

If you're starting to think about life beyond your business or know someone who is, this session is for you.

Because after building a successful business, you deserve to build a next chapter that's just as fulfilling.

Interested? Join us at our Link-Up & Learn session and discover how to make your transition from business ownership a purposeful and rewarding one. Register today, on the link below, we'd love to see you there.

Nothing like networking followed by co-working on a 'summer's day'! Thanks to Wizu Workspace for the warm welcome.

The weather was a lot like a damp squib today, ☔ but the conversations were far from it.

We had some lovely feedback from a previous visitor about our events, and I think it sums up our vibe perfectly.

"I was highly impressed at how relaxed and informal the meeting was, and indeed how friendly and welcoming everyone was as well. By far the best way to network, in my opinion, is to have a relaxed chat with like-minded people in a non-pressured environment like We Are In Business."

Next Thursday we're at The Milner York, if you're in the area, why not come and join us?
