Every Tuesday, one of the directors at Transmit Start-Ups gives you a quick and simple top tip for making your business a success.

This week, Mark Gardner, Mentoring Programme Manager at Transmit Start-Ups explains how important it is to either get a mentor or become a mentor.

All of the greats such as George Lucas, Richard Branson and Jackie Chan (all from different backgrounds and industries) have had mentors to help guide them through their career and teach them lessons that they may have never encountered if they were alone.

A mentor is a sounding board for ideas and there is evidence showing that 70% of small businesses who receive mentoring survive for five years or more.
