"We got Seamus Cody's help to prepare our business plan in 2010. He was particularly helpful in assisting us to collect and quantify all the figures required for our financial projections. Our bank were not just impressed but very impressed and provided the loan that we required. Seamus keeps in touch by phone and drops in occasionally on his way to Cork to offer advice and support. We would really recommend Seamus to anyone thinking of starting a business."

"Seamus Cody helped me prepare my business plan in 2009. Before generating the financial projections he had me calculate the cost and sell price for each item on my menu. He then asked me to realistically estimate how many of each plate that I would expect to sell each week / month of the first year. The exercise proved invaluable not only to reassure myself that my business was viable but Seamus then introduced me to Bank of Ireland who were equally assured. My bank loan was verbally approved after our presentation and I received the funding ten days later."

"Seamus Cody provided us with strightforward, no nonsense financial guidance at a crucial time in our start up in January 2012. He then helped us source the extra finance we needed from Bank of Ireland. Five months on from opening he has been proved right in most of his projections. I highly commend Seamus and his work.

"Early in 2011 when I was contemplating buying a franchise from a UK company to start my own mobile coffee business, Seamus Cody questioned the logic and convinced me to just do it myself.
He then helped me prepare my business plan and specifically to generate detailed financial projections to establish that the business was viable and that I would get a return on my significant investment.
I am so happy that I took Seamus's advice and am delighted to report that CoffeeVanChino is thriving and I am enjoying serving quality coffee to my customers in Finglas, Cabra and Blanchardstown business parks. I can highly recommend Seamus for "common cents" business advice.
