    It's been a year!

    Well done Mike, its been 8 months exactly myself today according to my app. I've used various aids to help get through and couldn't have done it without them. Really can't understand why anyone bothers to post anti/negative stuff on this. The point is you've stopped - who cares HOW it's done.

    Cricket Suppliers Wanted Please

    No sports retailer can rely on just cricket, you need multiple sports equipment and clothing covering all 12 months of the year. Specifically on cricket, UK manufacturers and retailers already have the connections between them and if I'm honest I can't see what's in it for you (or them). UK...

    Now I'm angry with BT

    Latest saga continues. The business line wasn't moved on Friday to the new place, and after speaking to four BT agents I'm told it hadn't been ordered and would take at least a week ! How many order numbers do you need ? Yesterday, both the temporary number and proper number are dead lines...

    Now I'm angry with BT

    We're expanding, moving into new offices this week but it's taken weeks for BT to get organised. That's bad enough and I'll never get back the time wasted on the phone to BT as I get passed from pillar to post. Finally, yesterday, the line get's connected. It can't be a coincidence that...

    UKBF New Section Req'd ?

    I see on most sections and threads a stream of posts from people thinking about starting up a new business. Most of the questions are on similar lines and I suppose get lost amongst the hundreds of posts being made. Would it not be better to have a new section for this which could become a...

    Any chocolate retailers here?

    Used to be involved in the trade: beware. Seriously seasonal. It is very much gift trade to it'll be busy from Sept/Oct and will die a death after Easter. Expect sales to drop 80-90% and then months of hardly anything over summer. You need to plan for this cash flow wise. It's very tough trade...

    Is there any way I can borrow £600,000 !

    Check your County Council website for links to business grants which will also include venture capital. There are hundreds and it's a trawl. But I believe there is a lot of assistance for redeveloping agricultural land - you might need to redo the business plan to take into account what the...

    Could really use some advice

    Apologies to the OP. Was going by your first post which said you were a sandwich shop, and you seemed to be concerned about taking only £120 per day and you didn't know if this was good or not.

    Not much available that I can see. We're expanding into new offices and will get help from local Council on a match funding basis but for capital expenditure only - fine for my purposes but not yours. Check your local council website The County Council has a comprehensive section on grants with...
