When you are ready to take the first steps to build your micro-corporate (or, perhaps, inspired to kick-start a plan that may have stagnated) then drop an email to coachbarrow@me.com – I would be delighted to meet you on a no-obligation, no charge basis and discuss how I can help.

Trevor and Aaron Ferguson – West End Dental Group, Colwyn Bay.
David & Dawn Cunningham – Spring Grove Dental Group, Glasgow & Central Scotland.
Mark Skimmings – Dentistry on the Square, Glasgow.
Colin Campbell – The Campbell Clinic, Nottingham.
Shaun McClure, Raid Ali & Richard Vangasse – Restore Dental Group, South Wales.
