Barbara Hodgson – the lady behind Your Business Matters
It’s the unique combination of corporate experience, entrepreneurial flair, a deep interest in people and a natural skill at spotting potential collaborations that has given Barbara a successful career in business development and networking.
Creating teams
In a successful team, the total is greater than the sum of the parts. Working at Avon developed Barbara’s ability to bring a diverse group of people together and create a group which achieved more than each individual could. She brings this skill to Your Business Matters, enabling business owners to achieve more through collaboration and strategic partnerships.
Long-term approach
Barbara’s entrepreneurial appetite led her to the Women In Business Network (WIBN) where she ran nine successful groups across the East Midlands and developed her professional networking skills. Her long-term approach to networking creates more sustainable, enduring business relationships and is a refreshing change from the short, sharp tactics seen in other networking formats.
Skills and contacts
In 2017 Barbara Hodgson launched Your Business Matters, born from a desire to offer start-ups and SMEs practical ways to gain the essential business connections, skills and knowledge that their success depends on.
