Are small business startup assistance offers in Scotland a scam?

Scotland does have help for small business startup companies each year but there may also be scam offers that need to be avoided. The government provides grant and loan funding to new business owners who are approved to receive the money as a way to help them become more successful and cover the initial costs of operation. If you are seeking a grant or a loan for your business, remember to check the eligibility requirements and intended uses so that you can find out if it is right for you or not. To speak with a professional who can help determine if an offer you find is a scam, fill out the form on our website or give us a call at UKStartups.org, 020 3880 8554.
