"First port of call": BBF helps Mother Cuppa grow

Are you looking for a recommendation for where to turn for business support?

Word of mouth rightly means a lot to people, so here is one of our Growth Programme beneficiaries who is a real champion for the support we provide. So much so that they went on camera to tell you about it!

When Candice Mason launched her business, Mother Cuppa, a blend of herbal teas to support women's hormone health and wellbeing, she went from carrying out a hobby to running an e-commerce business, but she knew exactly where to go for support.

Candice explains: "When I plucked up the courage to launch the business, Buckinghamshire Business First was absolutely my first port of call. I wouldn't be able to grow my business without Buckinghamshire Business First. Anything that you need to run your business, they will have somebody that they can signpost you to.

"I found it really hard when I launched the business in the e-commerce space because it required a lot of skills that I didn't have, including social media, as well as cash flow forecasting, and accessing funding for start ups. BBF signposted me to various things that were going to help me. Through BBF's Growth Programme, I accessed a business coach who helped me step by step, as well as another coach who helped me explore crowdfunding and other funding options. It was great to talk that through with someone and bounce ideas off of someone with more experience.

"The business has huge growth potential and I know that I can turn to BBF to guide and support me."

We wanted you to hear it from them, not us.
