Solutions for Sport becomes Growth Vouchers partner

The specialist provider of sales and marketing solutions to sports brands and retailers is now an accredited supplier to the government’s Growth Vouchers programme.

The £30 million scheme is part of an experiment to find out the impact of advice on small business growth.

Growth Vouchers are worth up to £2,000 and must be match funded by participating small businesses, who can spend the money on getting advice about finance and cash flow; recruiting and developing staff; marketing, attracting and keeping customers; and making the most of digital technology.

Only businesses that have been running for a year, have fewer than 50 employees and have not paid for strategic external advice in the past three years can apply.

“Solutions for Sport is presently the only registered supplier offering assistance specifically for the sporting goods industry and thus we anticipate demand for our services coming from both sports brands and sports retailers who have received vouchers,” Paul Sherratt, managing director of Solutions for Sport, says.

Businesses will be chosen for the scheme at random by the Department for Business Innovation & Skills and the Cabinet Office’s Behavioural Insights team.

Under the key services offered within the programme, Solutions for Sport will provide assistance on marketing, attracting and keeping customers, and making the most of digital technology.
