He came up with an idea of cleaning PVC windows after coming across a special cleaning agent that brought out the natural whiteness of the PVC windows. After carrying out his own market research into the idea, Liam learned that no one else in the Humber region provided this service. Liam tested the market further by creating some flyers and delivering them to homeowners. The response he received was immense and encouraged Liam that this idea actually may work. Liam managed to earn enough money to purchase a van and ladders.

3 months before his 17th birthday Liam contacted Youth Enterprise after the Hull Daily Mail ran a feature on his business idea. We helped Liam write his business plan and secure grant funding that has helped him to legitimise his business, purchase insurances and finance a website.

Liam states:
“Youth Enterprise helped me move my business idea forward. I didn't know anything about insurances, bank accounts or how to make my business a Limited company but Youth Enterprise advisors set me in the right direction. I don’t know what the future holds for me but I know that I will do everything I can to make it a success”
