The site is designed to help small & medium sized businesses grow, and by simply registering, SMEs can receive expert advice from Ashley and other specialist business people.
Director of Ashley Commercial Finance, Ian Robins who will be leading the advice team commented; “We are keen to support businesses growth, especially in the early stages and often find that companies know very little about invoice finance. So far the sort of questions I’ve been asked have ranged from basic questions about how invoice finance works, to advice for companies who need to get cash in sooner and don’t have the time to chase invoices. It is great to be part of www.businessconsort.com and offer advice to smaller businesses hoping to grow. We are here to help!”
The website was set up by entrepreneur Dawn McGruer who over the years has proved to be real success and help to SMEs. Dawn personally selected the Ashley team after an associate recommended them; ” After being told about Ashley Commercial Finance, I visited their offices to meet the team and Managing Director Jonathan Cranston. I was impressed with the way they work and the hi tech systems they use to ensure their clients get good service. The brilliant thing about Ashley is that it is a small and friendly company which can offer the specialist and reliable knowledge needed by our members. They are well known in the business community and were the obvious choice for us. They have been great to work with, providing some excellent advice. “

Ashley provides invoice finance for the smaller business (including start ups and turnarounds) across England and Wales. Ashley has offices in Manchester, London, Leeds and Bristol. The company has almost 200 clients with turnovers between £50,000 and £1.5 million. They range from printers to road haulage companies, recruitment agencies to taxi firms, recycling companies to IT organisations.
Ashley provides ongoing finance for a business at up to 90% of the value of a client’s sales ledger, which, coupled with professional credit control makes invoice finance an attractive option for a growing business and a smarter alternative to an overdraft. As the facility is based on a percentage of turnover, the funding available grows with the business. Ashley’s independence and lack of bureaucracy means that funding can be in place for new clients to draw down within 24 hours of receiving sales invoices and at the lowest minimum fee. Full Online Account Access enables clients to obtain account information 24 hours a day.
Unlike many other invoice finance companies, Ashley allows clients to choose which accounts they factor, thus avoiding paying unnecessary factoring fees.
In response to client demand, Ashley launched an asset finance facility in June 2005. This is available for anything from computers, telephone systems and office equipment, through company vehicles to plant and machinery.
