Does my business qualify for funding?

No matter which funding route you pursue, being well-prepared can make all the difference. Funders, whether lenders, investors, or grant providers, want to see that your business is financially sound and has a clear strategy for growth.  

Taking time to organise your finances and build a compelling business case will significantly boost your chances of success.  

How to prepare for funding:

  1. Create a robust business plan outlining your business model, financial projections, and how the funding will be used to drive growth.
  2. Research eligibility criteria thoroughly before applying as grant applications can be time-consuming.  
  3. Review your financial health by checking your credit score, analysing cash flow, and ensuring your financial records are accurate and up to date.
  4. Gather your essential documents and be ready to provide bank statements, tax returns, and performance metrics to support your application.
  5. Clarify your funding needs and know exactly how much you need and why. A well-justified amount shows credibility and planning.
