A local business growth centre is holding a free seminar to provide insight on how to grow businesses.

Firestation, the only Bay of Plenty based business growth centre, is inviting business owners to attend a free 90-minute seminar in Tauranga later this month to provide insight on how to grow their business.

With a head office in Rotorua, Firestation has worked with more than 100 business owners in the last two years across the Bay.

Co-founder and chief coach Darren McGarvie said the seminar would introduce the Firestation team and provide attendees with proven methods of success.

"We know they work due to a rapidly increasing stable of award-winning clients including 2015 Great Lake Taupo Business Awards Supreme Winner and multiple award winner creative design agency Woods," he said.

"The Ignite Growth seminar will be a fast-paced and exciting session that focuses on the importance of streamlined systems, dynamic leadership and smart planning to take your business to the next level. Whether you are grappling with leadership, sales, accounting or even having the right mindset, we will cover the essential topics and behaviours you need for success."

"We work with business owners every day to overcome the challenges of running a business and to develop a strategic plan that delivers real results," Mr McGarvie said.

Firestation offers a range of individual and group coaching, programmes and marketing services in Tauranga, Rotorua, Taupo, Kawerau and Whakatane to help businesses succeed.

The Ignite Growth seminar is a joint initiative between Firestation and beany.biz, New Zealand's online accountants.

Beany.biz chief executive Sue de Bievre said they were a tax and business service that offered hard working Kiwi business owners real support, so they were free to focus on what's important to them.

The Ignite Growth seminar is on Thursday October 22 at BNZ Partners Centre, Tauranga at 7.30am. A light breakfast will be served. Numbers are limited and RSVPs are essential by Tuesday October 20.
