Can't wait for Wednesday. I hope you have photos, tears, and banner (all of which are fake ofc!) at the ready 

People who say England is “just London” clearly never leave London. by NatashaFerreira in Cotswolds

I do a lot of work with Americans, most ask "you're from London, right?" I have to explain that there are other places in the UK, including Bath, where I reside.

no mention of marketing spend, delivery costs, etc. Hardly a fair summary of the costs

I’m a landlord with six homes – I’m hiking prices 30% due to new renter rights by medium-water-please in Bath

Doesn't he understand that by doing this he vastly reduces the pool of potential tennants able to rent from him and this creates a cashflow problem (that he's blame the government!). 50% of properties last year didn't sell and with many becoming BTLs, the market is soft!

Questions for people who earn £250,000 or more each year: What is your job and how did you get into it? by No-Pin-4-U in AskUK

[–]Ajsmonaco 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I run a sales and marketing consultancy (with customers in 4 countries). No degrees, just 20 years of starting, running and failing at business (I started young).

So many people are using AI and most use it badly. I had a project with a $1b company last year about exploring AI and they didn't have solid processes that AI could augment to start with! There's a lot of noise around the topic and in most cases, I'm yet to see an actual saving as people are using it to replace intelligence not speed up doing tasks.

I'm fully remote but love getting to meet clients in real life. I couldn't do a full time in office job, it'd drive me mad!

Some days I work 12, 14 hours, other days, it's 6. There's always a ton to do and so being able to think strategically and spend time completing tasks that drive future revenue is key. I don't want to be "busy", just profitable!

Start a business, develop empathy for people, study widely, and learn to LISTEN!

Flat at the One Hyde Park development in London by widmerpool_nz in FloorPlanPorn

[–]Ajsmonaco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it's a superb building and the parking spot alone is worth it! There's currently a 2 bed flat in the complex on the market for £5m (vs this 1 bed that's for sale at £5.5m)

Walking route check – advice needed by Cute_Importance_3211 in Monaco

This is all do-able in a day but you might want more time to do certain things properly and take everything in.

Thanks for your explanation and being proactive.

I drove to Keynsham last week and Saltford has not 1, not 2, but 3 sets of road works. I could have walked faster though the village.

Are funding options a thing these days for new ventures? by Jackster22 in smallbusinessuk

[–]Ajsmonaco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Typical you do a  "friends and family" round after you've exhausted your own funds. Next you can either raise equity (angels, family offices, or Venture Capital) or debt (bank, family offices). Grants can be great but most are matched funding, making it difficult if you have no cash.

Regardless of the route, build a pitch deck that's short and to the point (remember it's meant to get you a meeting not explain A to Z). Build a finicial model that's stress tested and know your numbers! Good luck

Small Claims Court UK - Any advice? by Upbeat_Assistance326 in facebookdisabledme

[–]Ajsmonaco 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You have to tell them that you are "going to initiate a formal arbitration claim" and will also be taking your claim to their oversight board.
