SMALL BUSINESS MAGAZINE WINS SOCIAL AWARD!!

Your Entrepreneur Magazine has been awarded The UnLtd Millennium Award - for work carried out promoting and supporting the local business community.  The award enables the YEM team to roll out the magazine across the whole of the Northwest region and enter into the Cheshire, Cumbria and Merseyside areas.

YEM is a unique business magazine focused on helping small businesses to start, grow and succeed.  Working closely with business support agencies such as local enterprise agencies, The Princes Trust and ABF Enterprise 4 All (formerly Asian Business Federation), YEM is able to profile local businesses at all stages of their life.

The magazine has received fantastic feedback, from subscribers, advertisers and those that have featured in the magazine.  The team successfully managed, after only 4 months, to gain interviews with high profile entrepreneurs such as Rachel Elnaugh, Duncan Bannatyne and Leila Wilcox.  Leila, who won C4’s ‘Make Me A Million’ said, “What a fab business magazine.  YEM is a really interesting read and something completely different!”

Lucy Hamlin, Communications Manager said, “It is great to be recognised for the work that we do.  We are passionate about promoting local business and helping them to start, grow and succeed.  The future for YEM looks very bright.  We will redefine what a magazine can achieve, hosting networking events and helping our subscribers to be successful.”

YEM have already teamed up with Johnny Apples, a creative sales and marketing consultant, to co-host regular networking events, which take place in Salford Quays and will soon be teaming up with other organisations to put on more of the same.  The next event takes place on 30th March at the Digital World Centre between 3pm and 5pm, for more details call 01254 697813.
