Since the summer of 2022, we've been working closely with the retail chamption, to facilitate business support across Lincolnshire - work that was funded by West and East Lindsey District Councils and Boston Borough Council.
Clare spent some time visiting businesses across the three districts, getting to know their challenges and identifying where they need support. And while she is now working 1-2-1 with selected businesses, all of her wider support is available right here, via our online Teachables Tourism Growth Programme.
As a Destination Lincolnshire partner, you can now tap into Clare's expertise via multiple series of online webinars - The Retail Champion.
The first and second series - The 10-steps to Retail Success Series and E-commerce for Beginners - are now joined by a third series, Maximising Your Business Potential.
Free to access, all three series are now online and ready to support you and your business growth. Enrol today and start maximising your potential.
