At Funding Circle, we want to do all we can to help businesses get the finance they need to grow. While most businesses apply to us directly, we also work with a number of partners, who recommend us to their clients if they’re in need of funding.
One such partner is business coaching firm ActionCOACH, who referred their client Accountancy Learning to Funding Circle in May this year.
Accountancy Learning are a specialist training provider for accountancy qualifications. The team work with over 1,000 students and 80 apprentices and recently won the AAT Champion award.
Founders Prue and Simon Deane have been working with ActionCOACH for 18 months, with business coach Steve providing executive coaching to boost their business. Due to a change in apprenticeship funding, Accountancy Learning were in need of finance to expand their business and continue to offer their specialised training. After struggling to get a bank loan, Steve recommended Funding Circle, and they were able to borrow £25,000 in just a few days. “It had taken 3 months for the bank to say no, and it took Funding Circle 3 days to say yes”, Simon told us.
ActionCOACH has helped thousands of business owners across the globe achieve their goals, leading them to become the number one business coaching firm in the world. Since partnering last year, ActionCOACH and Funding Circle have helped UK businesses access over £3 million to grow and prosper. We believe this partnership will enhance the future lending opportunities for Funding Circle investors and give more businesses the opportunity to flourish.
