KNOW YOUR NUMBERS
When it really comes down to it, the difference between a successful business and an unsuccessful business is in how well they have mastered their numbers. Your numbers tell the story of where you have been, where you are now, and where you may end up in the future.
The problem is, most Business Owners don’t understand any of that, and are unable to control it. Know Your Numbers and you will be able to understand, feel differently and look forward.
Join the Know Your Numbers group to learn how to understand and use the unique Know Your Numbers framework to improve your business and your mindset.

TRANSMIT START UP LOANS
Government backed start up loans for up to £25k per director.
The process is easy to follow however I would suggest that you have your business plan in place before starting the credit checks as they lapse after a few weeks, and you will need to renew the check if it lapses.
