Business Finance Matters (BFM)

By: David Grosse & Trevor Pirie
  • Summary

  • Hosted by David Grosse and Trevor Pirie, the podcast is focused on all matters that are relevant to the business finance marketplace.

    David and Trevor have both worked in the business finance space for over 35 years.

    David is the founder of Number Eight Business finance and specialises in providing advice and access to all business finance products available today.

    Trevor is the founder of Alexander Angel and provides independent consultant advising lenders, brokers and software companies. He has also been instrumental in coordinating and founding a guild of professional business finance intermediaries.

    The main cause of the podcast is to help provide a bigger signpost and voice for those professionals that are trained, qualified and are providing an essential support mechanism for those SME's that are wanting to gain access to the best-fit finance products available.

    Following the collapse of the UK high street banks in c.2008, business owners have found it difficult to find the best finance pathways. Despite various efforts with the British Business Bank and HM Treasury to support the signposting needed, all efforts have yet to be actioned or prioritised.

    The podcast will feature guests from all areas of the market including the lenders; industry experts and the business owners, too.

  • The Business Owner - The Baked Beans on Toast Years
    May 29 2024

    On this show we welcome Jo Hughes.

    Jo is a director and co-owner of MaxWifi (UK) Limited.

    Jo talks openly about her career path and explains how she and her husband Richard, were able to cope with the many financial challenges that they had to endure...including a conversation with their bank manager that could have lead to their demise had they taken his advice.

    The good news is that Jo was able to engage with a business finance professional shortly after and ignored the advice of the bank manager. Today her business is thriving once more.

    Most importantly, Jo gives an honest and frank view on the importance of why every small business should be able to gain quick access to a nearby business finance professional.

    Dave and Trev hope that this will be the first of many first hand business owner experiences that will resonate and garner support from all those that identify and support the cause behind this Podcast series.

  • A Little Filler....with added camels

    Following on from the 1st Episode that went live on 19th April, this next Episode will cover off the feedback and responses received so far and continues to push home the principle cause ie to ensure that the UK's business owners are given the signposting that will give them the access to the best-fit finance.

    Dave & Trev, of course, add their own twist of humour and banter that most of the listeners appear to enjoy, however, some have already switched off and moved quickly into a dark room to reflect.

    Whatever your views on this Podcast maybe, the boys welcome all comments and feedback and, if relevant, will discuss the feedback on future Episodes.
