Amount and purpose
Use the actual purchase or operating gap to explain how much funding you want to explore.
Business financing referrals · Marketing and creative businesses
Turn a marketing project budget into a funding request.
Creative and marketing projects may require production work before a client pays the next milestone. Describe the equipment, subcontractor or operating expense the request would cover.
Marketing and creative businesses · funding preparation
Look at when money comes in and goes out
Separate agency fees from client money earmarked for media or suppliers. A prospective brief and an approved statement of work should also remain distinct in the funding explanation.

Look at all repayments and fees over the agreement rather than a single quoted rate.
Contract conditions
Read security, guarantee, early-payment and default provisions before agreeing.
Gather the basics
Prepare the information for your request
Prepare the requested amount, business purpose and timing from your purchase or operating budget.
- 01Your requested amount and the expense it would cover
- 02Your revenue range and how long you have traded
- 03The business name, sector and approximate credit profile
- 04Contact details for the owner and a reachable mobile number
Planned purchases
Explain the costs behind your plans
Studio equipment
Workstations, cameras and production tools may require software and setup. Distinguish a one-time equipment purchase from recurring subscriptions.
Project delivery
Freelancers, production suppliers and media work can create costs ahead of client receipts. Use the approved scope and agreed payment schedule to identify the gap.
Costs of keeping work moving
Payroll, premises and software costs continue between project milestones. Define the operating period rather than treating the full project fee as available cash.
Understand our role
Understand the service before applying
How does the referral service get paid?
Your submitted business and contact information may be sold to as many as five funding partners for follow-up. Partners pay us for the referral regardless of its funding outcome, and we do not charge you to apply.
How are funding terms set?
Sending the form does not guarantee an offer or approval. Funding partners assess the business against their own requirements and set the conditions of any financing.
How long can a review take?
A supplier deadline does not establish how quickly a funding partner can respond. Confirm the provider’s process before relying on financing for a payment.
What contact permission am I giving?
Check how your information will be used and who may contact you before you send the form. The SMS code verifies your number; the separate consent text describes communications.
