Testimonial of Leah Pearse, HAARG Op Shop

I highly recommend the StartUp Business Development Program to anyone wishing to start a new business.
StartUp gave me the confidence to take my business idea and make it happen. Linking me to a mentor who had business experience in the industry I wanted to enter was invaluable. My mentor gave me sound practical advice and quickly connected me with other people in the industry.
This month our op-shop celebrates our first birthday and also received a NSW Local Carers Award for Volunteer/Community Group!
I have no doubt that the success of our business is because of the sound foundation that was laid through the StartUp program.
