We’re thrilled to introduce our new monthly blog series that recaps what we’ve been up to over the past 4 weeks. We’ve been busy closing, funding, and onboarding ten deals across various industries, totalling around £765,000 in funding lines!

Here’s a look at some of our highlights of the month.

Double Birthday Celebrations

Last week, we marked a significant milestone – Apollo’s 8th birthday! It’s been an incredible eight-year journey supporting overlooked SMEs, and your partnership has been important to our success. Alongside the company celebration, we also had the pleasure of celebrating the birthday of the fantastic Angie Briggs.

New Faces Making an Appearance

In response to increasing demand, we’re also in the process of expanding our team. Next week, we’re welcoming two new members to our team, Operations Support Amy Budgen, and Senior Credit Controller Kathy Wagner. We also want to congratulate Karen Wright for being promoted to Client Manager!

We’re also looking for a new Business Development Executive to join our New Business team! Exciting times ahead so make sure to follow us on LinkedIn as we formally introduce Amy and Kathy to our amazing community.

Client Highlights In July

Below, we’ve highlighted some of our favourite deals this month. Some real crackers we’re proud to support:

£35,000 | Sign Installer

A new-start business was initially running their entire ledger through spot finance, costing them a small fortune. They approached us for a single debtor facility, which we gladly provided. Now, they’ve entered a more cost-effective facility, and we couldn’t be happier to support their growth.

£50,000 | Audio Visual Hardware Installer

Facing two business CCJs and one personal CCJ, this company really struggled to securing funding. They were desperate for faster payments to cover staff wages, whilst waiting 30 – 45 days for customers to pay. We were ready to meet this challenge and set them up with a facility. They’re now able to meet staff wages and invest in growing their business.

£50,000 | Audio Visual Hardware Installer

Something a bit different! This client needed a factoring facility due to issues with their previous provider. They were struggling to manage cash flow whilst paying subcontractor drivers weekly. Another shining example of how we help our clients maintain steady operations with our invoice finance facilities.

It’s been a great month and we’re excited to see what the upcoming month holds with several exciting deals already in the pipeline. Thank you for your continued trust and support!

Stay tuned for our next update and enjoy the rest of your week!
