Our presenter today is John Lewis, who is talking to member Martin Baker, of Martin Baker Estate Planning, who has belonged to the group for three years.

His business is predominantly about encouraging people to recognise the importance of having a will, and powers of attorney for both health and wealth. Many people don’t want to talk about what happens after their death, and he wants to help people be prepared, rather than coming up against lots of problems when things haven’t been put in place.

Martin joined us during COVID, when the meetings were online, which he found a bit strange. Apart from having to get up early on a Friday morning, he loves meeting everyone every other week and enjoys the friendships he’s made.

Networking is a fairly new thing, but he values how it has worked for him. It is something he would encourage other people to do too. So much so, he has invited some friends to our groups open networking event in February.

Martin says networking is similar to children saying they don’t like cabbage - you need to at least try it once to have an opinion about it.

If you’d like to know more about Martin and Business Wise, visit https://businesswise.org.uk/ and if you’d like to visit email [email protected] – we do have to check first that your seat is vacant. If it’s not you will be put on a waiting list.
