    I wish my damned customers would pay up quicker.

    Since the value of my business fell I’ve found it much harder to get access to money. This has further reduced the value of my business and put me in a bit of a downward spiral. I know the banks were handing out money too easily but then they went the other way and now companies like me are struggling.

    I have just set up a new company and we have 20 employment opportunities that we cannot fill. Where are all these people who have been made redundant? We are based in St Neots just 25 minutes from Peterborough. We are looking to recruit an elite team of sales consultants, we pay a basic wage and an excellent commission structure in a recession proof business. If anyone is looking for or knows someone looking for a new sales opportunity with good rewards please e-mail me jane@emergingearth.com for more information.

    My company can eradicate common pests like wasps, mice, rats and bed bugs and we are cheaper than the local council. Wasps are £29.00 plus vat, why pay more………………….07506306765
