Cash Flow & Funding Guide for SME Recruiters | SME Gateway

Most recruitment businesses that run into trouble aren't failing to win work. They run out of cash while they're growing. Every new contractor placement means paying someone every week, often a month or more before the client pays you.

This guide is for owners and finance leads of start-up and growing agencies. It covers why the cash gap happens, how to manage it day to day, the main funding options and how they compare, and what to ask a funding partner. A one-page checklist at the end helps you test where your business stands today.
