Generating leads in the health industry requires a multifaceted approach that combines digital marketing, personal branding, and strategic collaborations. By leveraging these strategies, both companies and entrepreneurs can effectively attract and convert potential clients, ensuring sustained growth and success in the competitive health market.
The entrepreneurial landscape is evolving, and so is the profile of the modern entrepreneur. Individuals with disabilities are increasingly demonstrating their capacity to innovate, lead, and build successful businesses.
Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is one of the most important factors in driving traffic, generating leads, and building online visibility. While domain names hold weight in branding and discoverability, relying solely on a domain without SEO is not enough. Misleading information often circulates about SEO and domains, but the truth is clear: without optimisation and consistent effort, even the best domain name will remain invisible, floating aimlessly in cyberspace.
From April 2026, quarterly digital tax updates will become a legal requirement for many self-employed people. While MTD is intended to streamline the tax system, it also poses new hurdles for disabled entrepreneurs on Universal Credit, who already face disproportionate pressures in managing both business and health. The key is to prepare early, explore HMRC’s webinars and guidance, and seek out accessible accounting solutions.
Market research is the systematic gathering, recording, analysing, and interpreting of data about markets, products or services, and consumers. It helps businesses understand the size of their market, customer needs and preferences, competitor activity, and the external environment (economic, regulatory, technological, social, etc.). It can be both quantitative (numerical data, statistics) and qualitative (opinions, motivations, attitudes).
Finding investors is not just about asking for money; it’s about building relationships, offering value, and asking for advice. Start by crafting a solid business plan, network on the right platforms, and collaborate with University Professors to gain expertise and credibility. When approaching investors, focus on building trust and demonstrating your commitment to growing your business. Remember, the right investors will not only provide financial support but will also help guide your business towards success.
Job hunting and running a business share a common struggle; despite effort, visibility, and determination, opportunities remain scarce. The case of Joe Emery highlights the reality that many people face: endless applications, countless rejections, and a system that seems blind to the human toll of unemployment. Businesses, particularly disabled entrepreneurs, mirror this struggle, working tirelessly yet seeing minimal returns.
Regardless if you are an able-bodied or disabled person, starting or expanding a business, one of the most important decisions is choosing the right legal structure. In the UK, the most common options are Sole Trader, Partnership, and Limited Company (Director-owned). Each comes with its own legal, financial, and tax obligations. Understanding the differences will help you make an informed choice, avoid pitfalls, and remain compliant with HMRC and Companies House.
