Back to Business Essex, a new service fully funded by Essex County Council, has launched to help small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) get back on track as we return to business.
Covid-19 is something no-one could have predicted, and its impact on businesses has been undeniably significant.
As a leading business support and finance provider across the South East and East of England, Let’s Do Business Group are pleased to be able to assist our invaluable SMEs in Sussex, Kent and now Essex to survive and develop out of this uncertain period.
Delivered by Let’s Do Business Group’s expert support team, Back to Business Essex provides up to 12 hours of fully funded support covering everything from business planning and refining your marketing strategy to identifying sources of funding, building local supply chains and relocating premises.
With on-hand professional support and guidance tailored to meet the business’ needs, the service aims to help SME owners overcome any barriers and concerns facing their return to work as well as invest in opportunities to scale-up.
Essex County Councillor Tony Ball, Cabinet Member for Economic Development, said: “Businesses are crucial to the Essex economy and it’s important we support them as much as we can, particularly through significant change in business markets and financial uncertainty.
If we want Essex to be the place to do business, and for our economy to expand and thrive, we need to take action to help businesses make this happen.”
Graham Marley, CEO of Let’s Do Business Group, said “We are delighted to continue to help the businesses of Essex through what have been exceptional times.
Our experience in helping businesses to plan for the future and access the finance they need whilst helping develop forward looking strategies will ensure the businesses of the county survive and then thrive into the future.”
Thinking ahead may seem daunting right now, but to take some of the pressure away, Back to Business is here to provide solutions to challenges you may face along the road to recovery as part of Let’s Do Business Group’s commitment to support the local economy, as we look towards a ‘new normal’.
To help fund your business through Covid-19, the Group’s finance arm, Let’s Do Business Finance, is an accredited delivery partner of the Coronavirus Business Interruption Loan Scheme with government-backed loans from £50k - £100k. Alongside this, Let’s Do Business Finance continue to deliver flexible and affordable Business Loans from £3k to £100k and Start Up Loans from as little as £500 to £25k.
