Laughing Tree Couriers

06/06/2024

It's been quiet here for far too long!

I'm delighted to announce that I've been accepted into the program and for the past few weeks have been quietly working away at rebuilding what Laughing Tree means. More on that later, but your local cycle courier will be back very soon.

After 4 weeks of zoom calls, yesterday I finally got to meet my fellow Impact30 participants in person during an all day business coaching session. We talked Personal Management, Motivations, and Business Strategy - and of course had plenty of time to get to know each other. So many excellent businesses are being built across the Highlands and Islands and I look forward to being a part of the group as we support each other to achieving our goals over the next 12 months.

Keep Pedaling.
