Business brokers support new expo for entrepreneurs

The Australian Institute of Business Brokers (AIBB) have given their support to the new ‘Start Your Own Business Expo’ running in Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne.

President Andrew Morris said they were excited about the opportunity to meet entrepreneurs and highlight the role of brokers in managing business sales.

“Running your own business is incredibly rewarding. It allows you to take control of your destiny, generate an income and build a valuable asset. When it comes time to sell it is important to get the right advice and maximise the return. And you want to be thinking about this right from the start”.

The Start Your Own Business Expo will cater to anyone looking to work for themselves – whether it is a startup or the purchase of an existing business. There will be multiple business opportunities to consider as well as the services you need to get started and grow.

Event Director Kate Radcliffe said the show would provide visitors with access to accountants, lawyers, web designers, trainers, recruiters, marketing agencies, online services, business advisors, government services and many more.

“We want to provide a one-stop shop for anyone wanting to start or grow a small business. There will be free workshops, free advice and a range of exhibitors who can help entrepreneurs turn ambition into action.

“And we are delighted to be working with the AIBB to showcase the importance of business brokers as part of the small business journey. The association will be there to answer questions, and members will be there to showcase existing businesses for sale”.

To provide maximum value for visitors the show will be running alongside the popular Franchising Expo. This gives attendees the chance to learn about the franchising model and talk to leading brands such as Red Rooster, Oporto, Muffin Break, Couriers Please and Poolwerx.

The Franchising Expo and Start Your Own Business Expo will run together in Sydney from 24-25 May, Brisbane from 26-27 July and Melbourne from 30-31 August. Stand bookings are now open. For information call 03 9999 5460 or visit www.startyourownbusinessexpo.com.au
