About This Event

The 7 Stages of Business Ownership event was hosted by John Heenan at the Ulster Bank Entrepreneur Accelerator on 19 August 2026. The event discussed business ownership stages and freedom. Tickets cost £19.99.

Discover the 7 stages of business ownership and find out where you are on the road to real business freedom. Hosted by John Heenan

This 3to5 Club Belfast event is for business owners who want to understand where they are on the journey towards building a real Stage 7 business.

A Stage 7 business is not one where the owner is trapped in every decision, every sale, every problem and every crisis.

It is a business that can run without the owner being the engine, the glue and the emergency department all at once.

At this session, we will explore the 7 stages of business ownership and help you work out which stage your business is currently in, from start-up and survival through to stability, success and true owner freedom.

This is for business owners with staff, responsibility and ambition who know the business has potential, but also know too much still depends on them.

If you are serious about building a business that gives you more time, more choice and more control, this is an investment in the future version of your business.

Outcomes:

By the end of this event, you’ll walk away with:

✅ Understand the 7 stages of business ownership

✅ Work out which stage your business is currently in

✅ See why many owners get stuck before true freedom

✅ Spot where you may still be the bottleneck

✅ Understand the difference between business growth and owner freedom

✅ Learn what needs to change for the business to depend less on you

✅ Get clearer on what a Stage 7 business could look like for you

✅ Spend time with other business owners who are asking the same hard questions

Why Attend?

Am I building a business that serves me, or one that owns me?

If you have ever felt like you are the person holding everything together, this event will help you see why that happens and what has to change.

3to5 Club is built for business owners who want to move beyond the daily grind and build something that can work without them being pulled into every corner.

This is not just another business talk.

It is a room for owners who are serious about changing how their business runs.

Come ready to think differently.

Leave knowing exactly where you are on the road to Stage 7.

Try our Stage 7 Tool

Before attending, take a few minutes to complete our free Stage 7 Owner Test.

It will help you identify where your business currently sits across the seven stages of ownership, how dependent it may still be on you, and what needs to change next.

Your result gives you a useful starting point for the event, so you can arrive with a clearer understanding of where you are now and what moving towards greater owner freedom could look like for your business.
