February 2020 -. As someone who has completed many online courses, I want to say how much I really enjoyed the course. This is a wonderful and practical overview of the whole process of writing a business plan. Very easy to understand and broken down in manageable modules. I would say that it teaches business planning and more. I'm now excited about doing the financial projections one, (Something I never thought I would say).

July 2019 - this course was brilliant. It focused on all the areas that needed clarification and helped me immensely in applying for the female entrepreneurship call. Don’t hesitate to do this!

I had tried to apply to the CSF twice and I was rejected twice before I found Donnchadh online, I contacted him and explained the situation and he immediately knew I had a good case, the problem was I just wasn't presenting it properly. https://Eatstro.com is the name of my company, we deliver healthy meal-kits all over Ireland. Donnchadh pointed me in the direction of his invaluable CSF course which I followed. He very kindly reviewed my application before I submitted it and this time it was approved to pitch. We spoke by phone at length about the pitch I wrote and he was very happy with the answers we'd written for the potential questions. Donnachadh also gave us some more questions we hadn't thought of and lucky he did because they came up during the pitch. Overall we wouldn't have gotten the CSF without the help of Donnchadh's course. Thanks again for all the help Donnchadh and if anyone wants to discuss my CSF experience Donnchadh can forward on my contact details, Best, Lorcan M.

This course is very helpful when preparing a CSF application. It's straight to the point, professionally delivered and uses practical examples throughout to emphasize key points. If you're looking for a comprehensive step-by-step guide to the CSF application process, then I'd recommend this course. Additionally, Donncha is always happy to answer any questions and he responds promptly with insightful answers as he understands the urgency. If you're thinking of applying for the CSF but not sure where to start, then this course is definitely for you.

A short and very beneficial course. All content clear and easy to get a grasp of.

Donnchadh has provided a comprehensive and detailed breakdown of the Phase 2 application. What originally seemed daunting and overwhelming now looks stimulating and achievable. Recommended

Creating financial projections was an area of my business plan I was struggling with. This course really helped me by going through cash flow, profit and loss, and balance sheets in an easy to follow video series. I would highly recommend the course to anyone who's finding their financial projections difficult to figure out.

The course really helped me to plan out my answers to each section of the New Frontiers Phase 2 application form. Packed with great practical examples and best practices, it's the must-have companion guide for anyone applying to New Frontiers Phase 2. As a bonus, Donncha is always happy to answer any questions and it's very clear that he is a subject matter expert when it comes to formulating such applications. I'd highly recommend it to anyone applying for New Frontiers Phase 2 and I'm 100% certain that this course was the reason I got shortlisted for Phase 2. Definitely worth it.

I found the Tendering for Small Business course a very beneficial introduction to the whole process, delivered in an excellent format and very user friendly. I will definitely be recommending it.

Having come from a zero-experience background in preparing financial projections, this course helped me to get to grips with the financial aspects of my business plan. Donncha was on hand to help me out and answer any questions I had throughout this course. I'd definitely recommend this course to anyone looking for a solid starting point on how to understand and prepare financial projections for their business.

I met Donncha prior to purchasing the course and am absolutely thrilled I did so. Working with the videos in tandem to filling out the CSF application was incredibly helpful. The application itself doesn't seem to complicated until you start realising the word count on each section makes it incredibly difficult to say everything you need to say. The course helped with this - making sure the application contained everything required to get the attention of those who would be reviewing. Would definitely recommend this course to anyone looking for help in applying for CSF.

After finishing the New Frontiers programme, I realised that I needed support with financial projections. Donncha walks you through all the cash flow, profit and loss and balance sheets in a straightforward, user friendly way. The course can be taken as your own pace, and will give you the confidence to take on your own projections for applying for LEO grants- would highly recommend this course
