The ultimate guide to start-up with Rob Town

If you’ve ever launched a start-up and watched it slip through your fingers, you know how tough it can be. In the UK, nearly two-thirds of start-ups fail within five year. Maybe you’ve experienced that disappointment and wondered where it went wrong. Or maybe you’re just getting started, hopeful but quietly worried about becoming another statistic.

If you’re serious about starting a business, this guide will give you the clarity, confidence, and structure you need to launch successfully. You’ll learn how to avoid costly mistakes, turn your idea into a viable business, and build strong foundations for long-term growth. More than just profit, it’s about building a business that supports your goals, fits your lifestyle, and gives you the freedom to work on your own terms.

Join Business Growth Strategist Rob Town for this session and find out about the 20 steps you can take to kick-start your start-up. The session is FREE but must be booked via Eventbrite. There will be time for Q&A and refreshments will be served

Rob Town – Business Growth Strategist | Startup Advisor | Creative Entrepreneur

Rob is a dynamic business strategist with over 15 years’ experience in customer and service delivery management, during which he cultivated high-impact partnerships with major corporate clients across diverse sectors.

Rob's influence stretches far beyond the stage. His curiosity and drive for innovation have led him into the realms of brand strategy, education, coaching, and enterprise development. As the founder and director of Kickstart Business Growth, Rob now works closely with entrepreneurs and emerging business owners, offering bespoke strategic guidance designed to build resilient, profitable companies from the ground up. His coaching style is practical, outcome-driven, and grounded in lived entrepreneurial experience.
