I think Funding Connection has a high level of professionalism in dealing with their clients. Without having to mention their names individually but the whole team that my company has worked with to this point has been dedicated to make this application a success. Starting from Cherise, Dagmar, Karmal are a great team to work with.
I was actually starting to panic about my application because of the eagerness to get my business to kickstart but Karmal professionally calmed me down when she explained that we must be patient we're within the time limits and emphasizing the fact that their success rate is 80% and they as Funding Connection are positive about the progress so far. I then regained the hope.
So we're happy and the reason why I didn't give a 5 star performance is simply because I am expecting my application to be successful and then add the fifth star. I definitely will recommend others to be assisted by Karmal and her team.

I recently dealt with Funding Connection with regards to compiling a Business Plan for my Company. Thereafter I had Karmal assisting me with the application process for Business funding. The whole application process was quite challenging and frustrating but Karmal was most helpful, polite and very patient and was always available to answer any questions and assist where needed. Thank you Karmal And Team

My Funding Connection Experience
02/12/2024
I came to know Funding Connection through internet surfing, made contact with Soweto agent Bruce Sefute for first consultation who enlightened me on what I need to do next. Fast forward a business plan was ready on record time as Charisse promised, had an interview with James afterwards it Karmal for funding application process.
The application process is exhausting time consuming worst was the stalling online' system from the funder side. It was very frustrating for me but Karmal kept me sane all made see the positive side of doing the application. I am pleased to application finally was completed successfully and the reference number issued. It took longer than I anticipated but through Karmal I learnt and understood how it and importance of compliance.
Thank you Karmal
Thank you Funding Connection team.

Karmal helped me gather the necessary documentation for the funding application process, and is always available and willing to answer all my questions and concerns.
I feel confident that she'll continue supporting me until I obtain funding.
My only concern is that it is only when you call to make a follow up that you know what happens next. I think she can improve this by maintaining constant communication regarding the next steps that follow as this will help us be adequately prepared for those processes.

My overall experience with the service was excellent. They provided personal interaction, which made the process more engaging and effective. The service was exactly what I was looking for, and their assistance in applying for funding for my company was invaluable. Every step of the way, I felt supported, and their communication was clear and responsive throughout the journey.

I took time to engage with Funding Connection, subscribed to their email until I asked for a Virtual Meeting with Dagmar. She dedicated her staff to my case and business plan and financial forecast were done within few weeks. Then after all I started working with Karmal for Capital Fundraising application which she took me through high level of professionalism of uploading documents to the platform. Thanks so so much Karmal and the entire Funding Connection Team, you guys are a blessing to South African Entrepeneurs......

It is my first time engaging with the consultant, she is the most patient and helpful person, I hope for the best outcome.

Karmal submitted our application on the 14 of May 2024. She kept contact with us to check if we have received any response from the funding institution. We kept on making follow ups with the funding institution recommended by Funding connection for our application. We ended up visiting the offices of the institution during our follow ups, where we met funding consultants whom were willing to assist with the follow ups while Karmal was giving support on follow ups. After face to face meeting, they gave us an interview on teams so that we can present our product supported by the business plan written by funding connection together with financial projections. The consultants were very impressed with the presentation and it was a success 🙌 we got funded
