Recommended Posts

We are 2 East Dulwich based women who have recently taken the plunge, leaving secure jobs and embarking on new self-employed careers. As new start ups we have limited resources and are learning as we go but have recognised some key gaps in our skills and experience. Rather than pay we thought we would give the idea of a skills swap a go!


More about us and what we are looking for & can offer:


Ally is a practicing Physiotherapist and Sports Massage Therapist living and working in East Dulwich fixeastdulwich.com. She is currently writing a range of children's books. She is looking for some advice in developing her publishing strategy and insight into the industry. Are you in children's publishing and able to help? in return Ally can offer a (or series of) free 45 minute sports massage (dependent on level of support offered). References are available on request.


Geri has over 15 years experience managing change and consulting across the public sector and not for profits. Last year she qualified as an Executive Coach and is based in East Dulwich. This year is a year of transition for Geri as she focuses on developing a new client base. She is looking for some advice on website design and marketing herself using social media. Can you help? In return Geri can offer four free monthly one hour coaching sessions (or a number dependent on level of support offered). References are available on request.


If this sounds like something you would be interested in, please PM for a chat

Well .

I can help with what you want but not interested in swapping what you want to get for something that I don't ..

Therefore if you are looking to use sources others than a massage then I'm happy to help

    • Ocado stopped sourcing from Waitrose a few years ago. They now source from M&S and general brands. Waitrose have their own delivery service now. I don't know how well served SE22 is by it. Ocado offers for new customers are, or certainly were, really good, particularly in the run up to Christmas. I think I got 20%/15%/10% up to a maximum of £100 spend off my first three deliveries with no delivery charge or commitment to sign up for further deliveries. There wasn't a time limit, IIRC, so it was a great way of restocking heavy store cupboard basics and stuff for the freezer.
    • Fair enough point, but does that not in a way make it even worse if they open a shop almost directly  opposite another "family" business selling exactly the same type of products?
    • As Occado source from Waitrose, and were their only deliverer at one stage, and as Waitrose do now deliver it may be they feel their reach in ED is sufficient to mean having a local outlet would not gain them sufficient additional sales to be cost effective. The movement to delivery rather than physical shopping during Covid has I believe substantially changed the grocery economics. So it may be that the High Street dynamic for physical shops has now changed. 
    • ..... thinking about the discussion about Chango.  Their "About us" blurb on the website says started by one Argentina guy.  So if one person has a successful business and goes on to open a number of shops when do they go from a supported successful "family" business to a less liked "chain"?
