NEW NETWORKING SITE HELPS BUSINESSES BEAT THE CREDIT CRUNCH

ACKCES.com, the UK's newest business FREE networking site has launched a new incentive to help freelance consultants grow their businesses and improve their services.

Members of the site are being encouraged to offer small amounts of free time, free advice and tips, and simple 'how to' mini guides to each other in an effort to boost business and attract new contracts.

Members are also being asked to allow people who want to find out more about a particular career, to become mentors and give people the chance to spend a day with them to learn more about it.

Nakia Garriques who co founded the site with her sister Kenesha said: "With the current credit crunch it's vital that small businesses support each other. We hope that Ackces will go some way to providing this support by offering members the chance to swap skills and help each other with their business development.
We also hope that our members will help people to find out more about their industries by offering work experience placements. They could be helping anyone from a student just starting out to someone who aspires to have a career change.”

Ackces.com is a website that links business professionals and entrepreneurs and promotes creativity, intelligence and business acumen. Members can manage work events and discover exciting new business opportunities, all in one place.

Nakia added: “Ackces specifically targets corporate and business clients, entrepreneurs, freelancers and professionals, to bring together the very best people in your business community. We want people to see this as a networking revolution - a new website that will set you free to focus your entrepreneurial skills where they matter and leave the networking and promotional aspect of your business to us.
“We understand the need for world-class business tools and communication, and Ackces is dedicated to providing these for the world's business community. As a world-encompassing business resource, Ackces aims to be a complete solution for developing and maintaining a valued and trusted network, without any limits or barriers.”
