3S Start-up

Start your business properly, in one go

Open properly, in one go

Most new businesses assemble themselves over eighteen months: a logo here, an accountant there, a website when there's time. We set the whole thing up at once, and sort the funding for the kit while we're at it.

What's included

Five things you need before you trade

Look the part

  • Logo and a simple brand kit: colours, fonts and how to use them
  • Website, built from a proven template rather than from scratch
  • Domain, professional email and matching signatures
  • Google Business Profile, LinkedIn company page and social handles secured

Be operational

  • Customer records and a basic sales pipeline set up
  • Accounting software connected to the business bank account
  • Quote, invoice and contract templates
  • Electronic signature and online payments
  • Shared drive with a folder structure that still makes sense in a year

Be compliant

  • Companies House, HMRC and VAT registration guidance
  • Business bank account support
  • Privacy policy, terms, cookie banner and ICO registration
  • Insurance checklist for your trade
  • Starter HR pack if you're hiring: contracts, handbook, right-to-work process

Get customers, get funded

  • Launch marketing plan and a first email or social campaign
  • Basic search visibility set up from day one
  • Funding readiness: start-up loans and grant routes
  • Asset finance for kit, vehicles and equipment, through Novora
Packages

Fixed prices, defined scope

Fixed fees with clear limits on pages and revision rounds, so you know what you're buying. Indicative, and confirmed once we know the trade and the scale.
