Hi everyone, I don't sell cars but I do run a motorcycle / quad centre. Really hoping it's ok to post on here.
I'm looking for some advice regarding an FCA licence application. Even though we've been trading for many years we've only recently started selling motorcycles and have now taken on an agency so naturally need to offer finance.
I have already applied for a limited permission licence which is now three weeks in. I've had an email to say I've been personally approved to carry out a controlled, which is a good signthat things are progressing. However one of the questions asked on the original application was as to whether we have a business plan, I said yes and that I would supply it later on as there was a tick box to say that. Now my question is, will this hold up my application? Should I send one in now and if so what does it need to include?
I'm ashamed to say that even after having been in business for 25 years I've never written down any form of plan on paper, it's all in my head!
Thanks in advance for any guidance you can offer.
