The post you are reporting:
I was indeed Paul.
I had helped businesses with lots of things - business rastes, fire safety, marketing, surveys, membership etc. Buildiing a good relationship with various businesses was/is essential, co-ordinating events (not necessarily organising them), all things that will help businesses must be good.
Despite what a poster put up recently, businesses are on their own, they need to know there is someone at hand they can turn to and I'm not necessarily talking about wet-nursing them, but sometimes, for a new business, that may well be necessary. Information on the benefits of a website to a business, perhaps click and collect would benefit the individual business as well as the Town.
Much could be done with the Town itself too, to make it more welcoming and somewhere people want to come to.
