Are you looking to obtain finance to start up or expand your business

Are you looking to obtain finance to start up or expand your business but don’t know where to start?

Has your business been declined for a loan or is your loan offer at a very high-interest rate?

Do you want to borrow from friends and family but are you unsure how to present your needs and formalise the arrangement?

If you answered yes to any or all these questions, we may have a suggested way forward for you

There are more than 1400 banks and financial organisations offering loans to small businesses – navigating your way through them, getting the right product at the right rate over the right period can be confusing and maybe crucial to your business. 40% of small businesses avoid growing because they can’t get or don’t want to borrow.  We are former bankers who managed loan approval teams and we want to pass on our tips and experience to help you. 

With savings rates so low, funding your business from a friend or family loan could be a winning formula for both parties. GLI offers you help to present a formal proposal for a loan, finance or investment and provides you with a proposal which encapsulates your plans, needs and explains the risks, placing the funding on a professional and proper basis encapsulated into a formal agreement document.

GLI run free webinars which explain how Banks look at you, what information they need you to provide, what product you should aim for, the rate of interest and repayment you should be seeking and what you need to do to give yourself the best chance of getting approved.  The webinars are interactive, we want to hear your questions and we also want you to join with our other people who are on the same journey and connect with them during and after the webinar is over.  

At GLI we not only tell you WHAT might be a good way forward, but we also explain the HOW you can go about things. Additionally, if this something you feel unsure about doing yourself to the right professional standard, we offer you SUPPORT to help you complete this activity.

If you need help producing an application for a loan/funding/investment, or if you need to produce a business plan or a marketing plan, if you need to build a website, or need help with strategy, operations, communications, or resistance then GLI can help you with a range of simple, good value paid services, which allow you to focus on what you are good at.  By attending the webinar there is no obligation to follow up with these services.
