The resources and advice that Businessline provides can help individuals to:

  • Start a business / identify relevant start-up support
  • Research their market in terms of both current and predicted future performance
  • Access tailored business-to-business marketing lists
  • Credit check businesses based in the UK
  • Identify local marketing / networking opportunities

As a direct result of the support from Businessline, clients have been able to secure additional sales (ranging from fairly low values to those exceeding £1000), win major contracts (such as the supply of bags to the 2012 Olympic Games), prepare business plans to secure funding. They have even helped clients prepare pitches to potential investors (such as Dragons Den BBC Television Show) as well as simply aiding clients to successfully start and develop a new business.

Since joining Businessline, Gareth has both developed the service and launched a number of new initiatives to support businesses. Gareth has also coordinated events bringing some of the UKs leading business speakers to Wrexham.

In 2014 Gareth was named National Library Champion of the Year, a prestigious award formally recognising and highlighting his achievements at Businessline and the valued impact a business information service can have on influencing economic prosperity from a library setting.
