Frequently asked questions
Quick answers for businesses looking for help, and for advisers listing with us.
For businesses
Is it free to use?
Yes. Searching the directory, viewing profiles, messaging advisers and requesting quotes are all free for businesses. We don’t charge introduction fees or take a commission on any work you agree with an adviser.
How do I find the right adviser?
You can browse advisers by town or city, county, or speciality and read their full profiles. If you’d rather they came to you, request quotes instead.
What happens when I request quotes?
You tell us who you are and answer a few short questions about what you need. We then email you a link to confirm your request — once you’ve confirmed it, it is shared with the advisers currently listed so that those who can help can contact you directly.
Do you check the advisers?
Advisers only appear once they have confirmed their email address and have an active membership. We don’t assess qualifications or endorse individual advisers, so as with any supplier, ask about relevant experience, references, professional memberships and insurance, and get a written proposal before agreeing terms.
Who sees my details when I send a message?
A message sent from an adviser’s profile goes to that adviser only, and is also kept on our system so we can deal with any problems. A quote request is shared with listed advisers. Our privacy policy explains how we handle your information.
What if I have a problem with an adviser?
Advisers are independent businesses and your agreement is with them, but please let us know if something goes wrong — we take concerns about listed members seriously.
For consultants and advisers
How much does membership cost?
Registration is £150 + VAT, which includes your first 12 months. After that, renewal is £100 + VAT a year. There are no charges for leads, enquiries or group messages. See membership benefits for everything that’s included.
How do enquiries reach me?
When a business messages you from your profile, the message is emailed straight to the address on your account. Quote requests from businesses are also sent to all active members.
How do I appear on town, county and speciality pages?
Your listing is placed automatically using the town, county and skills on your profile. Keep them up to date from your dashboard to appear in the right places.
Is there a referral scheme?
Yes. Introduce a new member using your personal referral link and you’ll receive a one-off £50 finder’s fee once they join.
I’ve forgotten my password
Use the forgotten password page and we’ll email you a secure link to set a new one. The link works once and expires after an hour.
