We have found David Farmer of Lime Consultancy very professional, with a can do attitude, which is very refreshing. Dave gave me some ideas on franchising and licencing my business model and it helped a great deal.

On Friday I attended an event facilitated by Dave on cloud accounting. The event opened my eyes to the cloud itself and cloud computing specifically. I have learned that any event promoted by Dave is worth attending. More...

Yesterday I really enjoyed Dave from Lime Consultancy talking about business finance, he made things super easy to understand.
It is refreshing to know there is someone who can talk about finances in a way which I can understand.
Thanks Dave

We met David through a networking meeting and he was just the guy we were looking for. As a growing business we were interested at looking into crowd funding to help us expand. David came to our office and talked over the different options and how we could move forward.The process was straightforward and with David on the case our loan was accepted promptly without an hassle. We would be happy to use David again for any other consultancy work. More...

I listened to Dave Farmer, of Lime Consultancy, give a presentation to a breakfast meeting on how to approach securing finance for your business. Throughout the presentation it was obvious why business owners would go to Dave for advice, he was clearly knowledgeable about the subject, and not only presented it with humour, but in clear English that would be understood by a business owner of any size.A very informative and engaging presentation.

David gave a great talk at our network meeting today about business finance. He turned what sounded a boring subject (to me who has no experience of such things) into an entertaining but very informative session. He would certainly be someone I'd go to should I need help in that area and would have no hesitation to refer anyone to him. More...

I met David recently following a recommendation from a colleague and I am so pleased I did. He was genuinely refreshing insofar as his clear industry experience allows him to speak with the benefit of knowing his subject matter intimately. He guided me through a particular challenge my company was facing and saved me from potentially wasting considerable time and energy down a route which was unlikely to have worked. He ultimately recommended a specific course of action which we're now in the process of implementing – a course which won’t earn him anything but which is certainly right for us! Dave is easy to talk to, knowledgeable, insightful with his questioning and has proven himself to have high personal integrity. Highly recommended. More...

Really enjoyed Dave's 4sight on Friday at Shoreham. He has a way of explaining how to go about applying for Business Finance, which is simple to follow, lighthearted and to the point. Thanks again Dave!

I really enjoyed Dave's presentation on Crowd funding at 4N Uckfield on 1 July. This is one of those exciting new opportunities we hear about but know very little about the detail and Dave gave a huge amount of detail in a very small amount of time and answered questions knowledgeably. No doubt this will be an area which will expand hugely in the next few years and it is good to know an expert in the field. More...

David was so helpful and full of good advice when I spoke to him about which direction to go in order to raise finance to take my business forward. I really appreciate all his input and will definitely be picking up the phone to speak to him again in the future. I highly recommend his services. More...

I have known Dave for many years & when I heard he was speaking at our local networking group this week about business finance my immediate reaction was the fear of switching off & boredom. How wrong I was! During the talk he had us in silence, listening to every word & in laughter when slices of chocolate orange was being thrown! He came across very knowledgeable and being able to present a subject of finance to a group of people in that way was inspirational. If you have a few minutes listened to him speak! More...

What do you love most about your job?
Turning round a finance request that the client didn't think would happen. Delivering against the odds and exceeding what the client expected give us a real buzz.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Having underwritten credit and managed risk for a major global bank I could see that the market offering to companies was simply not matching what the client demanded.
Clients wanted quick decisions and rapid action. They did not want to wait weeks for a mortgage answer, they wanted it inside 24 hours and they wanted someone on their side who understood how lenders worked. Delivering what the client wants is more rewarding and more enjoyable.
Why should our clients choose you?
Open, honest and incredibly hard working for every client. Because we understand how lenders underwrite credit we get more deals approved first time which means our clients benefit from the finance process being easier and quicker than ever before. Plus, we don't charge upfront because we have 100% faith in what we do.
