New Ventures & Start-ups

Whether you’re looking to start a new business from scratch or you’re adding a new arm to your current business, sourcing funding is often one of the first steps to get your idea off the ground.

To secure the funding you need, you’re going to need to put your thoughts and ideas down on paper in the form of a business plan. From there, we can help you by providing a finance package that’s suited to your needs and even help simplify the legal requirements.

Remember the person reading the plan may not understand your business and its products, services or processes as well as you do, so try to avoid jargon. It’s a good idea to get someone who isn’t involved in the business – a friend or family member perhaps – to read your plan and make sure they understand it.
