Losing sleep over your finances?

As a business owner, you make thousands of decisions a day. Doing that while fatigued can be risky business.

If complex repayments or mountains of paperwork are keeping you up at night, it might be time to hand that job over to an expert.

If your car is old enough to order a pint, it’s probably time for an upgrade 🚗

Old models are generally less fuel efficient, have fewer safety features and and sometimes need more maintenance.

Our tip? Start thinking about a new set of wheels while your car still has some trade in value 💸

The silly season is around the corner, and with it comes gifts, holidays, and a few extra expenses. A little planning now can help you stress less and enjoy more.

💡 Tips for a smoother Christmas:
✅ Set a budget (and stick to it)
✅ Spread out your shopping to avoid last-minute splurges
✅ Consider a personal loan if you’d like to bundle costs into one manageable repayment

Make this Christmas one to remember, without the financial headache. 🎁

Keep your eyes peeled for scam messages 👀

Cyber criminals often send comms to your team in order to gain money or gift cards, clicks through malicious links, or passwords and other sensitive information.

These online thieves may even pose as executives through email or sms in order to trick team members into providing this information.

Always double check the source of the message before carrying out an instruction and don’t click suspicious links.

Ever wondered what lenders really look at when you apply for a loan? 🤔

It’s not just about income, lenders want to know if you’re reliable and can manage repayments without stress. Here are some of the big factors they check:

✔️ Credit history
✔️ Income and expenses
✔️ Existing debts
✔️ Employment stability

The good news? With the right preparation you can boost your chances of approval. If you’re unsure where you stand, a broker can help you get loan-ready and find the right fit.

Do you know the difference between a hard and soft credit inquiry? 🧐

When you apply for a loan through a lender (or a dealership), they typically complete a hard scrape of your credit score. This may leave a mark on your record and can reduce your chances of getting approvals in the future, particularly if you apply with multiple lenders.

When you go with a broker, they will instead complete a soft scrape of your credit profile. This doesn’t leave a mark on your credit profile and allows brokers to get a good picture of what you’ll be able to borrow without impacting your future.

Ultimately, you want to limit the number of hard inquiries as too many within a short time period can be detrimental to your credit score.
