Meet the Breakout Team - More than just Business Support
At Breakout, we believe small businesses deserve access to the same level of business support expertise and support as larger organisations, without the agency fees, complicated contracts, or corporate jargon.
Founded by Farley Boxall, Breakout was created to help small business owners navigate the challenges of running and growing a business. What started as business support in admin has evolved into a comprehensive business support hub, helping clients with everything from social media, bookkeeping, websites, IT support, training and networking to specialist services delivered by our trusted Extended Team.
We understand that running a business can sometimes feel overwhelming. Most business owners don't need a full-time marketing manager, IT department, bookkeeper, HR consultant, business coach, or designer. They simply need trusted people they can turn to when support is required.
This is where Breakout's business support is different.
Our team and Extended Team work together to provide practical, flexible support tailored to each client's needs. Whether you need a one-off solution, ongoing support, training to do it yourself, or access to specialist expertise, we help connect the dots and ensure you get the right support at the right time.
Based in Sudbury, Suffolk, we proudly support businesses across Suffolk, Essex, and throughout the UK.
