🚀 Entrepreneurship: The Journey to Success! 🌱 Did you know that many successful entrepreneurs started with a small step into the world of business? Whether launching their own startups or investing in franchises, like Subway or McDonald's, these leaders often began with a vision and a drive to make it happen. Here are some key facts about their journey: * Starting Small: Most successful entrepreneurs didn't start with big corporations; they began with small businesses, learning the ropes and growing their skills from the ground up. * Franchising as a Launchpad: 🤝 Many well-known entrepreneurs chose franchises like as their entry into business. Franchises offer a proven system and support, making it easier to break into the market. * Consistency is Key: 📈 Research shows that franchise models tend to have a higher success rate compared to independent startups because they come with a built-in brand and loyal customer base. This reduces the risk of failure in the early stages. * Big Names Started Small: 💡 Did you know that Fred DeLuca, the co-founder of Subway, started his journey with just a $1,000 loan? He turned that small investment into one of the largest fast-food chains in the world! * Learning on the Job: Many franchise owners develop critical business skills like management, marketing, and customer service, which become the foundation of their future entrepreneurial ventures. Thinking of starting your own journey in business? Franchising could be the stepping stone you need! 🌱

The Birmingham History Network is a West Midlands social group aiming to spread interest and knowledge about history whilst also increasing interaction between academic historians and the general public by convening social gatherings, museum trips, book readings, informal symposia and a whole host of other activities. Also see our Facebook page: [ https://www.facebook.com/birminghamhistory](https://www.facebook.com/birminghamhistory) This is a local branch of The History Network.  The History Network is based on the following values: • History belongs to everyone and should be accessible to everyone. Therefore, the History Network is a strictly non-profit organisation. It is acceptable to gather donations but these must be spent on administrative costs and event organisation. • Given that history belongs to everyone, discrimination on the basis of gender, sexual orientation, age, class, race, nationality, religion, and disability is absolutely unacceptable.  The History Network strives to make its events accessible to all and to ensure that its events respect individual differences. • History is the scientific study of the past and is based on the principle of objectivity. Therefore, the History Network will not organise events that seek to promote particular ideological, religious, or political beliefs and agendas.

Connect is an established group with members in Worcestershire, Warwickshire and The West Midlands.

We are all volunteers and ALL ACTIVITIES ARE AT YOUR OWN RISK. Organisers and Event hosts are not responsible for any injuries however caused. Connect is a friendship group for single people. It is not a dating or introduction agency. Connect is an association which gives single people the opportunity to enjoy a wide range of activity with others .It is a successor to the nationwide group Nexus whose aspirations were to share with friends a rich, varied and rewarding life. Members suggest and organise activities voluntarily. We have enjoyed meals, cinema, theatre, days out, National Trust visits, weekends away, boat trips and other varied activities. New members must be single but those who become established in relationships remain members. We are always welcoming to new members. Most of our members live alone and guard their privacy so we respect their concerns and do not make telephone numbers, addresses etc. openly available. We are also sensitive that photos of members should not appear openly on social networking without their permission. Our walks are mostly in the countryside. Between 4 and 6 miles in length led by different members each week. It is a great way to exercise, chat, make new friends and enjoy lovely scenery. Afterwards most of us relax with a drink in a local pub or an outdoor picnic. We do not charge to join our group but we do have to pay to use the Meet up site. Occasionally we will ask for voluntary donations of £10 towards these costs. .
