Where the work comes from

Why referrals work for a commercial finance broker

Your best referrals rarely come from cold advertising. Instead, they come from people who regularly talk to growing businesses and property developers – usually around an expansion, a cash-flow gap or a property purchase. This is why accountants, solicitors and commercial property agents are strong referral partners for every commercial finance broker.

What happens on a Thursday

We meet every Thursday between 6:30am and 8:30am, so it’s done before the working day gets going. Every week you get 60 seconds or more to tell the room about your business. Between meetings, members book 1-2-1s to understand what each other is looking for, and there’s a genuine social side too – summer BBQs, Halloween events and charity challenges.
