Writing

"Once again you have managed to distil a life story into a single page and make it interesting, readable and insightful. Another excellent piece."

              Andrew Mounsey, Pentlands Publishing Ltd


"Reading your book has re-ignited and reminded me of the reasons for setting up this business in the beginning and has made me determined to succeed. It has even given me the confidence to write a business plan and look at my figures!"

              Sharon Fernandez, The Baby Book


"We work with people who want to grow their business and in seven years have only found four people we're 100% confident to recommend to our clients.  One of those is Robert Ashton.  He is practical, real world and great fun to work with.  If you have questions, his books will give you answers."

              Ian Christelow, ActionCOACH Managing Director


"What Robert Ashton doesn't know about entrepreneurship isn't worth knowing.  Unlike other authors who are all about theory rather than practical advice, Robert gets straight to the point of what it takes to start and run a successful business."

              Dan Martin, Editor, Businesszone.co.uk


"I think 'How To Start Your Own Business...For Entrepreneurs' is a great tool and superbly laid out in a clear and concise manner, which is essential when you need to cut through the jargon."

              Karl Baker, Managing Director, Taurus Collection (UK)

Speaking

"I like Robert - he's a human-scale entrepreneur on a talk-circuit dominated by supposedly super-human entrepreneurs who most of us find it hard to relate to. He talks a lot of sense."

              Rob Greenland,  Social Business Consulting


Below are some of the comments I recieved from a Business Link event when I presented "Why Social Enterprises are Tomorrow's Enterprises."
"I thought the presentation was very interesting, and Robert Ashton was forthright in his opinion, and concise in his answers."     

"I was really moved by your drive, the information you provided the group last night and your extremely witty presentation. I sincerely wish you all the best in your personal quest of making the world a better place for Frank and for my 5 year old twin daughters and their grandchildren."

              Dr Mah Hussain-Gambles, British Female Innovator of the Year 2009

"Vernon and I both feel that the evening was very successful and the client feedback has been extremely positive. Please see below for an example of delegate comments. 
A number of delegates said they found the Q&A session the most useful and would have liked the event to be longer to include more."

              Rose McAteer, Events Executive, Business Link Yorkshire


Advice

"It has been such a relief to find an advisor that actually understands what running a social enterprise is all about, especially in such a specialist area as radio. 
         I have been impressed by his appropriate advice, immediate feedback and links with the right people.  I will be keeping this link with Robert for as long as possible. 
         I would certainly recommend his services to others that are running a social enterprise or seeking business advice generally."

              Dave Hatherly, Wayland Community Radio


"My business has really gathered momentum since meeting Robert. I had been working on ideas that seemed to me to be a little fragmented and without a clear focus.
         I came away from that meeting with a clear vision of a business that integrated all my interests under a unified theme that accurately represented my unique approach.
         In addition, by having confidence in me, and in my business idea, Robert gave me confidence in myself."
