Professionals Breakfast Seminar with Shirlaws
Workshop 2
Build the long-term asset value and profitability of a business
Many business owners state that they want to sell their company at some point; few have a way of maximising the value they have in the business. It is common for a business owner to sell their business at the wrong time and not realise the true value of the business.
This workshop will introduce you to a way to build value into your business and to understand when is the right time to make an informed decision about the disposal of a business.
• Learn how to assess the strengths and weaknesses in the long-term valuation of your business
• Identify the business model and valuation level that you want to build
• Prioritise and plan the aspects that require addressing to achieve the asset value that you seek
Who should attend?
Members of NHCCI in the Accountancy, Banking and Legal professions, who have an interest in building a sustainable pipeline of new business.

Foundation Course in Importing (FCI)
There are many sources of information and help available to exporters. The same level of assistance is not available to importers, with the result that many are ill informed and ill equipped to deal with the complexities of successful importing.
Inexperienced importers may incur avoidable costs and in the worst case may not receive the goods that they ordered having already paid for them.
The seminar will offer practical guidance to prospective and existing importers by considering the basic procedures, terminology and documentation involved in importing. It will give an overview of the entire importing process including supplier selection, evaluation of risks, supply chain, terms of delivery, methods of payment, selection of clearing agent, duty and excise and the role of UK Customs.
The course will highlight some of the pitfalls that often cause importers to incur unnecessary costs and delays in arrival of goods and will suggest some ways of avoiding these. It will increase understanding of Customs rules and procedures and look briefly at some of the duty and excise reliefs available.
