One of the major obstacles facing a start up business is translating the enthusiasm and drive of a new company idea into language that a financial institution will recognise and accept - f451 has a wealth of experience and contacts within finance and can demonstrate proven expertise in finding the correct funding source based solely on the clients requirements.

Advice and support can be delivered from the very early stages of developing a business idea and helping with the business plan to researching grant aid funding or seeking development and investment funding – it is all too easy for a new business to accept the first offer of investment or asset finance in it's eagerness to begin trading – we recognise the importance of finding the right source of funds taking account of any potential downside.

An existing business may realise the importance of investment in new equipment but have difficulty in convincing its funding sources – f451 is unique in offering links to funding sources but supporting the service with a full and provable knowledge of Broadcast equipment through years of experience in supply and Systems Integration – because we recognise the true value of equipment we are also well placed to arrange re finance or rescue packages for companies that are experiencing potential difficulty, or to hep realise the full potential of a business in the event of preparing an exit strategy.

"We were re-quipping and spoke to a number of financial ‘experts' who baffled us with
Financebabble. We contacted f451 and were understandably suspicious when they began talking sense – they understood our problems and the equipment – they did everything they said they would, when they said they would do it, and amazingly they were actually fun to deal with."
