About Us

Running a small business can feel lonely, confusing, and exhausting — especially when all you want to do is get on with serving customers and keeping the lights on. I know, because I’ve spent years listening to small business owners across the UK tell me the same thing: “We just want clear, practical advice we can trust.”

That's why I created Business 111 — a place built for you. It brings together reliable, government-backed information and real-world experience in one simple space. No jargon. No endless searching. Just straight answers to help you make good decisions, save money, and stay on top of the essentials — from tax and insurance to hiring, funding, and digital tools.

I've worked with thousands of small and micro business owners, and the challenges are always the same: too little time, too much paperwork, and not enough people who understand what running a tiny business really means. Business 111 connects those dots — linking you to trusted resources, local networks, and experts who genuinely want to see you thrive.

This isn't theory. It's practical help for real people who are building something of their own. Whether you're a sole trader, a startup, or a small employer, you'll find advice, encouragement, and community here.
