Practical support for your business. Positive impact in your community.
Essex Hub Business Support
Too much time running your business. Not enough time doing what you’re good at? The inbox keeps growing. Social media slips down the list. The process that lives entirely in your head is beginning to creak.
Support that fits the way you work.
Administration support
Help with the everyday tasks that keep your business moving, from organising your inbox and preparing documents to maintaining records and supporting invoice administration. Buy a defined block of support, with priorities agreed before work begins.
Social media support
Consistent content without the weekly scramble for something to post. Support includes content planning, captions, branded graphics and scheduling, with your approval before publication.
Operations support
Make the way your business works clearer and easier to manage. I can help organise enquiries, document processes, build practical trackers and set up workflows that people can actually use.
Resources & Knowledge
Three practical starting points for a more organised business.
Need help putting these into practice? Email us about the task you want to tackle.
Your weekly admin reset
Review outstanding enquiries and prioritise replies. Check upcoming deadlines and unpaid invoices. Put documents in one agreed place and record the next action for each open task.
A simple social media plan
Pick one audience and one goal for the month. Plan posts around useful advice, what you offer and real examples you have permission to share. Batch captions and graphics, check them, then schedule them.
Write down one repeat task
Choose a regular task, such as handling a new enquiry. List the steps, who owns each step and what finished looks like. Test it once and update unclear instructions.
Business support with community purpose
These paid services are provided through The Essex Hub CIC. Surplus income helps support our prevention-focused community work in Essex.
Business support that gives back
Our paid administration, social media and operations services help fund The Essex Hub's prevention work. We are also building an Essex Prevention Partners network of local IT specialists, accountants, bookkeepers and other business service providers. Through agreed contributions from work generated by the network, everyday business spending can help fund earlier support locally. The wider provider network is being developed.
We provide practical administration, social media and operations support, drawing on experience across banking, marketing, events and charity operations.
