Sue to run business bus tour

Woy Woy business owner Ms Sue Henry will be running a bus tour for local business women as part of a Central Coast Business Enterprise Centre business education initiative.

Twenty-five local business women will have the opportunity to be educated, inspired and reinvigorate their business by visiting three successful businesses on the Central Coast, according to Ms Henry.

"It's a real chance for Central Coast business women to spend quality time with business leaders in our community to learn and develop from, along the way," Ms Henry said.

"The bus will visit three 'mystery' business destinations with a specific business activity focus.

"Destination one has a focal point of start-up business challenges, finding new markets and employing staff.

"Destination two has a focal point of sales process, marketing and business branding. "Destination three has a focal point of people management, customer service and customer loyalty.

"The final destination will be the Business Enterprise Centre where the participants will be guided through a process to write an action plan to put in place what they have learnt from the day.

"Business women look for experience, practical information and 'real' examples, the bus tour is a great way to have them network and learn from one another."

Ms Henry has more than 20 years experience in training and staff development, providing programs in sales, networking, customer service, team building and communication skills.

She has been engaged as a sales manager, national marketing manager, training manager, sales representative, trainer, project manager and all round trouble shooter across a range of industries.

Ms Henry is currently a marketing consultant providing services in networking, sales, customer service and business workshops.

The tour will take place on Friday, April 3, from 8.30am to 5pm.

The cost of the tour is $165, including notes, learning journal, lunch and business education.
