Planit is an award winning agency that works with some of the world’s best known brands. Having worked on a number of early-stage businesses, Planit launched its unique Founder Solution, a flexibly priced, full funnel customer acquisition programme that’s currently driving growth with over 20 UK scale-ups.
Through its work with one of these brands they met with Juice Ventures, who could immediately see the benefit of the Planit Founder solution. Planit and Juice now work on more than ten different growth projects across B2C and B2C brands, seeing growth rates of up to 5,000%.
The combination is an effective one; Planit provides a customer acquisition strategy, media buying and real time reporting on the key metrics of Volume, CPA, ROI and LTV. Juice provides business planning, financial guidance, cashflow support and access to ongoing marketing budget, ensuring that the marketing spend sits outside of the overhead and other requirements of the business.
To mark the launch of Juice Ventures, the business has taken the unprecedented step of offering User Acquisition (UA) funding up to £1 million for your business. The funds will be offered without any interest or fees on an unsecured basis
Steve Cox, CEO and Founder of Planit spoke to Jamal Hirani, Founder of Juice Ventures, about why he wants to lend out £1,000,000 with no fees:
Steve: So, Jamal, you have always struck me as a pretty sensible guy, why would you take the risk of lending such major sums with no obvious benefit?
Lol! We created this one-time offer as a way to celebrate the launch of Juice Ventures, and for as many businesses to understand who we are and what we can do to increase their levels of success.
Steve: Ok, so I get that you guys are passionate about helping scale up’s reach that next phase of growth. Tell me a bit about where the idea came from?
Juice ventures was founded by marketers and entrepreneurs, like me, who understand the process of growing a successful business. We believe that an essential component of a successful business is by getting your businesses’ marketing right. In today’s world, it is known that your biggest expense and your biggest reason for failure is marketing.
Therefore, as a way to overcome this obstacle, we created Juice to assist founders in growing their business purely through user acquisition funding, without giving away any equity from their business.
Steve: So, what’s in it for the brands? Other than short term access to cash, couldn’t they borrow the money elsewhere?
Compared to other lending companies, we distinguish ourselves through offering a lot more than just cash. We offer a whole war-chest of marketing support, through our own in-house creative designers and UA specialists, who will be with you every step of the way, ensuring that every penny you spend through us is not wasted. In addition to our own team, we have numerous connections with other well-known agencies where businesses are able to partner up with to assist them with their marketing, ad designs, etc.
Steve: Literally the million-pound question – how would a business go about entering for the chance to receive the funding, and what is required?
