Having struggled to write my Business…

Having struggled to write my Business Plan I had Beth Blaise to support and re-write my Business Plan. She has done a remarkable job and covered everything that is needed for a professional plan that was easy to read and explained my business in great detail. I am happy to work along side of her to gain the funding my business needs. Job well done!

Working with Justin and the team to get into the details that are required not only for my business plan but for my pitch deck. The work has been great from the full team who has been dealing with my requests. I highly recommend UK Start Ups if you require any help at all when starting your own business. Thanks Liam at Drizzle Valets.

I signed up to UK StartUps with some…

I signed up to UK StartUps with some doubts and reservations about whether they would deliver with the initial investment. I can honestly say they have dissolved all my doubts and resolved all reservations. The business plan they helped me to create is way beyond my expectations and feel it is going to help me grow my business in ways I didn’t think were possible. The business plan is so professional and they helped me finalise it with ease. Feeling super confident in moving forward and now waiting on a successful application for a grant with the finished business plan. Highly recommended

Very professional

Very professional. Though I am impressed by the service I've received so far, the test of the pudding is always in the 'eating'. And there's a long way to go before I can assess whether the products I purchased are useful. I haven't yet tested whether they're helpful or resourceful.

Inspiring roadmap

Why did I choose, UK Start Ups, ?
Quite simple success breeds success.
After our initial telephone consultation I knew I had chosen a winning team , helped me shape all those ideas floating around in my head into a really structured, forward-moving plan for my business. It's exactly why I chose them—because they turned my ideas into a real, inspiring roadmap.
I now gladly share this team with other inspiring entrepreneurs.

grants database is fantastic

The Grants Database is the best I've seen. I use it for my clients and have helped many obtain funding via referral to UK Startups. Expert support is complimentary with the service and is A+

Turned a difficult task into a powerful learning experience!

Phenomenal support that took my idea to the highest level!
I knew that writing a business plan would be a difficult task, but the support I received from UKStartups.org made the process not only manageable but also a powerful learning experience.
I want to specifically mention my consultants, Justin Fletcher and Beth Blaise.
Justin is a consultant who genuinely cares. His strategic advice was invaluable, but more importantly, he actively helped me hone my idea with me, always turning setbacks into leverage. He is a true partner in the process, and I always feel he is genuinely keen to hear updates on my progress with funding applications.
Beth has been my primary contact for the plan's development and edits. Her professionalism and responsiveness are outstanding. Every time I've had a question or needed an adjustment, she has provided clear and incredibly fast feedback. Furthermore, whenever I had doubts about certain sections, she was always ready to offer and explain new suggestions.

Thanks to Justin and Beth, I now have a robust, professional business plan that I am proud of. They helped me elevate my original concept to its highest level, and I couldn't have reached this stage without them.
I highly recommend their services to any entrepreneur.
