  “How to Get Funding for Your Business” with special guest Jonathan Pfahl (Una & Friends)

  This weeks topic: “How to Get Funding for Your Business” with special guest Jonathan Pfahl (Una & Friends)
  
  Many small and medium companies (SMEs) struggle to get funding in the £50-250k region, yet at the right time that is precisely what can help them, and the economy, to grow.
  
  Jonathan Pfahl’s company works with SMEs to mentor them and, where appropriate, help them get funding. He himself has invested in seven companies to date and is looking for some more investing opportunities.
  
  After this show you will know:
  - How to make sure your pitch stands out
  - How to ensure your business is ‘investable’
  - The fastest route to be introduced to investors that are in line with your business
  
  Jonathan says: "Mentors are the key to achieving faster results in your business. This is because you get to learn from someone who has been there, done it and still does it!”
  
  He is the owner and Managing Director of the Rockstar Group of Companies (http://www.rockstargroup.co.uk/). Originally from Sydney Australia where he was an investment advisor at Goldman Sachs, Jonathan has spent his entire business career in setting up companies and investing in both shares and property.

  "Business Lessons from the Wealth Dynamics Experience" (Una and Friends)

  Sometimes life gets in the way of the best laid plans so I’ve had to change the plans for today’s radio show. My usual back-up suspects are not available today so I’ve had to put my thinking cap. As always, needs must and I have now come up with what I think will make a great show!
  
  Regular listeners will have heard me mention Wealth Dynamics and I’ve had some Wealth Dynamics practitioners on the show in the past as guests.
  
  In today’s show, myself and Steve Ireland will discuss some of our key learnings from a 3-day course we recently attended, the Wealth Dynamics Experience.
  
  Do you wonder how the wealthiest people in the world got there when they have followed such opposing paths to success?
  - Bill Gates leverages his products with other people's systems
  - Jeff Bezos leverages his system with other people's products
  - Jack Welch chose to run companies he did not start
  - Richard Branson chose to start companies he does not run
  - Warren Buffett invests in companies he neither started nor runs
  
  Wealth Dynamics is an entrepreneurial profiling system that helps people to understand their strengths and value. This means they can then learn the appropriate business strategies for them to follow in order to leverage their particular value.

  “Maximise Your Resources” with special guest Jonathon Yates (Una & Friends)

  This weeks topic: “Maximise Your Resources” with special guest Jonathon Yates.
  
  Sometimes the lack mentality in our environment helps us to forget what is actually right under our nose; a wealth of resources. A key element of achieving peak performance is recognizing and maximizing our resources.
  
  Author Jonathan Yates started his first business with very little seed capital during a period of zero income from his spare room after inventing a product which helps people drink more water whilst being kind to the environment.
  
  The poduct, Wahoo, is available in MoD ration packs all across the world and was launched in Asda and Waitrose during March 2009 and Morrisons for May 2009.
  
  Jon has recently written “100 All-Time Essentials for Entrepreneurs” and his forthcoming book, “Fresources: How to start a business with no money” is due October ’09.
