  • "I recently attended 2 day Start-up Workshop in Kent and it was more than I could hope for. The content to me was invaluable. As someone who has always been employed, starting my own business seemed daunting and overwhelming. Thanks to Lisa and her speakers Hannah and Gemma, I feel more confident about starting my business and the overwhelm has now been replaced with excitement. I am looking forward to applying all that we have learned. Thank you ever so much for your support Lisa! I will highly recommend to anyone thinking about starting a business."

  • "I attended Her Biz course with Lisa Young recently. I can highly recommend it to all females who dream about running business on their own and feel unprepared or lack confidence. The course is packed with information and provides a lot of practical guidance on what you need to look at or prepare to be successful đŸ™Œ Lisa who runs it is knowledgeable and always tries her best to provide answers to all the questions and gives great tips. Lots and lots of information and extra feedback on business plan, vision, business model etc."

  • "If you are looking for a workshop that will help kick start your start up business, I can highly recommend the 4 week Her Biz workshop - the information provided was invaluable and has helped me understand elements of business planning, financial planning, social media and marketing to give me the confidence in bringing my ideas to reality. Lisa has been so super helpful and is genuinely such a lovely lady. No question ever to big or small. Thank you to you all for such a wonderful course!"

  • "I have just attended the Her Biz free programme for women entrepreneurs with Lisa Young at Let´s Do Business. It was organised in 4 sessions, once a week on Fridays, online via Zoom, covering different aspects of important things to consider and steps to take in order to set up a new business successfully. I have been trying to start a side business by myself for the last three years, learning a lot on my own, but with zero structure and a huge load of doubts - adding here that I'm neurodivergent and struggles can be ten-fold at times. I am now a part of a lovely group of local and talented ladies thanks to this programme, and the information provided and the attention given to each of us, makes this not just any informative seminar, but a very real tool upon which to finally build my business. I still have my 1-2-1 session to attent, and I am already beyond words of gratitude for this exceptional service. This is at last the launching pad I've been waiting for and I didn't know I needed. THANK YOU SO MUCH!"

  • "I completed the 4 week online ‘Her Biz’ in October and I found it extremely insightful and helpful. Over the 4 weeks, we covered a high amount of information and it was incredibly helpful and areas that I had no knowledge on. I enjoyed being apart of this group of women who are all trying to succeed with their own businesses and who are all trying to help inspire and motivate everyone else going through the same thing."

    Tracey Vince

  • "I just completed the 4 week 'Her Biz' course and found it really helpful. The information shared was all relevant for me and I enjoyed being part of a group of women all trying to build their own things. I'm feeling inspired and motivated to push on with my own business ideas, and now I have a plan to help me achieve it!"

    Joanna Gray

  • "I found this course incredibly informative. It was divided into four sessions with a logical sequence, excellent guest speakers and relevant info emailed straight afterwards. Lisa was great throughout. Professional and approachable and was able to tailor parts to individual businesses. Thank you!"
