This month's meeting will feature a talk from Sue Baker from Clarity Financials and will include a discussion on managing the financial elements of business during difficult economic times.
The monthly meetings, Business Development Club, were suggested by D+R The Solution, a Poole-based marketing agency.
D+R Operations Manager Bryan Benjafield said:
"The idea of the meetings came from the current financial climate. It was the brainchild of David Dean who is the Managing Director here and we hope that it will help business in Dorset come together a bit and lend a bit of support to each other."
They company has been running business growth and development programmes for over ten years.
This latest project is focussed on preventing businesses getting into serious financial difficulties.
Mr Benjafield said: "We feel it is important to help businesses in these challenging times with a view of all Dorset businesses mucking in to help get through and help each other."
These meetings will be held every month on the second Tuesday each month at Holton Heath Industrial Estate.
D + R have also recently been involved with launching a scheme called Buy Dorset (www.buydorset.co.uk), which is an online database for Dorset Businesses.
It allows companies to post their details for free if they sign a pledge to try to source as much of their materials, products and work, wherever possible, with other Dorset businesses.
